Almost all lifts in the "home-owner" series are made either in China or Korea. You have to move to professional levels to find units that are made in America. In doing so, you'll increase your cost about $2,000 since they are designed for increased daily use.
Rotary Lift (right up the river from you, in Madison, IN) makes the professional series. They designed the homeowner series (Revolution) and make them in a plant they own in China, using their design, their management and Chinese labor. They found this was the only way to control quality of the product.
Look at their site,
Revolutionlift.com
They also own Forward Lift and Direct Lift. Each is a notch down from the other in price and amenities - you get what you pay for. Lot of factory and field support on the Rotary Lift brand and Revolution series; Less on Forward, and Less on Direct. Same way with warranty support and time period.
Rotary Lift is what you'll see in the majority of shops and car dealerships. Probably 75% of the total market. They are designed to continued, daily use in a full service environment.
Hope this helps you.
