About $2400 including freight. As I noted, I was not particularly impressed
by their pre-sales (lack of) support. This sounds like another Harbor
Freight type place.
FWIW, Cytech responded to my request for information by faxing me a
detailed specification for their lift, including a description of why it is
more expensive (heavier guage steel, mechanical components inside the posts
...).
What particularly impressed me was the report from the outfit which did
the ASME(?) safety certification.
I am waiting for packets from Backyard Buddy and Stinger, both in the same
price range as Cytech, about $600 more than Garage Equipment Supply.
Personally, when I am standing underneath my car, I don't mind paying
$600 more, if I think that it will make the operation a bit safer.
I will keep you all posted.
