Yes. From his point of view, as far as how often he has to service them, HF and Rotary would be in about the same bracket. They would both break a lot. I don't think a commercial garage would use a HF left. From OUR point of view, which is that of someone who uses the lift far more gently and less often than a professional garage, a Rotary would be reasonable if it weren't made in China. I would not, honestly, want to be under a car which was on a Chinese-made lift, after some of the horror stories I've heard from him. In this case, with safety at a premium, I'd rather be under an American or European made lift. Having a car fall on you would ruin your day and all your days to come.
