Purchased this over the winter. Used it for my snow blower and now, finally, for my bikes. This is the best tool I think I have ever bought. Even if you only wash and do pre-ride checks of your bike, I say you need one of these. I do my own maintenance so the lift will be used a lot. It is amazing how much more of your bike you can see.
There are expensive lifts out there that are better than this one for various reasons, but money for a luxury like this at this time of year is limited for me. So the mid-grade Harbor Freight lift is what I have. The lesser model has a cheap tire vise that does not work well. This one upgrades the vise and adds air lift power in addition to the manual pump. Despite being inexpensive (I paid $340 with coupon discount) it so far has done everything I ask of it. It is sturdy, well built, and works well. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=94121
