That said I would certainly add jack stands at the corners of the car to the mixture if I were to use them and crawl under the car.

Also - they are portable and ideal for confined workspace where four poster lifts are obviously not, so I rather like them and would certainly buy them but think they are too expensive. Might think of making a pair with a manual hydraulic pump some time though.
I'm with you Snake and would have no problem crawling under our car on this lift after satisfying that need to know like we all have some more than others.
