"I think a four post lift would be a whole lot sturdier"

It depends on the brand and what you'll be using it for. The four post is great for storing, unless you buy the kit that has the small bottle jacks, the trays etc..... to get the wheels off the lift to do brake work or any reason to un-load the suspension. To me, there just a hassle to use as a work tool.

If your intention is to work on every aspect of any car, from just maintenance to overhauling, I would recommend a two post. The rails on the four post are always in the way. There's a reason most automotive and body shops use the two post for working on a car and a four post for storing, especially if you have other cars to store in a small shop/garage.

I assume your garage is tall enough and concrete thick enough for either ?

I have the Max-Jax by Dannmar, and love it. I only have a single stall garage with the average height ceiling. I don't know how I ever did without it !
