somewhat helpful for those who need the assistance, but where to store it afterwards? w/ 195# limit it could increase if adding weight to the lower back caster tubing. for an opo (one person operation) it might be a good option?

Kinda neat!
 
it is sort of a neat idea, but i see people denting their cars, scratching the cars, maybe even not fully getting the lift under then dropping the camper shell.

if one has a garage, then a hoisting system attached to the rafters might work out better, and cheaper?

also, it is a hand crank, so it'll get tiring to crank, so an electric motor might be added.

the end caps, look like they are not large enough to cover at least 2 inches of the lift arms, and people not being able to judge distances (think rear end collisions), will not lift it up high enough to clear the car, resulting in scratches.

notice how short that gal is.??

how many attempts will it take for the owner to get that lift high enough to avoid scratching..???

so far, the company is taking "pledges"?

meaning what, it's still being deigned, and tested?

and yes, it'll have to be much more portable to store, like maybe break down like a baby stroller that folds up..??

just mentioning what i am seeing.
 
If the vehicle is short enough to get in and out of the garage is 1 thing, but a taller (suv) vehicle might be some help when alone.

some people that have a garage, don't even think ahead of time to consider the garage height, and end up parking in the driveway. that may not be true for newer homes/condos however.
