This product is amazing. We have converted it to be used with nitrogen. We use it 4 or 5 times a month, and have had it for over 8 years without any flaws. Highly recommend.

The experience with Genie was awful. I had a problem with the lift right out of the box. Got no support from Genie. Contacted Amazon and they replaced it immediately. Not looking forward with future service with Genie. They act like they are customer focused but don't count on it. AMAZON WAS THE DEAL SAVER.

This is my second Genie Hoist. I use it for work in the construction field. These things can stand up to the rough work conditions while always delivering without failure. Certainly worth the cost.
