I have one -- I don't use it very much. The scissors mechanism takes up so much space, it's hard to work under the car. It's fine for changing wheels, or even fuel lines. It's less handy for something like driveshaft work.

I got it from my BiL -- he didn't care much for it either.

I'm intrigued by this: http://www.kwiklift.com/features-all.htm People who have them seem to like them.
