I've seen a few threads on this brand through search, but curious to learn more from current owners or those with experience. I'm looking at it for $900, which seems like a reasonable price. It's already disassembled but seems like most tend to be. Biggest concern is parts and service. Anyone with a Nussbaum or experience with them?

They have a plant in Gastonia NC. I almost bought a new 2 post 10K but after finding out they were not interested in showing me one, went with a Challenger.

I have had this exact lift for over 10 years now, and I bought it used. I have used it almost every day - 6 days a week since without any problems. The only single thing I have done is replace the rubber lovejoy coupling.
Do you mind if I PM you? Curious to learn from your experience and to send you photos for your thoughts, if you are amenable.
Thanks!

Sure, no problem.
Hey all,
So I grabbed the lift. Will put up a video tomorrow but it seems to be in good shape from what I can tell. It's my first lift so I'm a little concerned I may have gambled a bit since it was already down and I had no chance to see it function first. It was built in 2005, so not especially old I thought. I paid 850 for it in the end, and it's one serious piece of equipment. The cables look good and it seems all there, but not totally sure as I could only go by parts blowups and images online.

Worked with these lifts for about 10 years. Honestly they are one of the best lifts on the market. I would take one over a rotary any day. Quiet, quick, and reliable. Good choice for $900.00 if you have trouble finding parts pm me. I know a supplier who deals only in those lifts that can get anything you need,
