No issues here but I went through a reseller. I dont remember an agreement. Not much magic to these things, but I understand wanting to go by the book.

Bend-pac insulating them selves from 3rd party installers. Changes nothing about the product and the warranty between you and them.

Mohawk insulating themselves from homeowners.

Lift makers hate homeowners. I don't blame them ether. 99% or more of lifting failures are user and use related not device failures. Sell them one at a time and answer 2193 questions and have to ship them one by one or 30+ per truck load at a time and done.

The truth is for normal home owner use any 2 post lift regardless of brand will be more than enough.

Proper use is the key.

I purchased a bend-pac way back when. Unpacked it read the directions and installed it. Used it for many years then took it apart, moved it and installed it again. Got a little truck parked on it right now. No wavers no issues lots of use.

If you want I can give you the BendPak POC I used to buy something through a garage journal group buy (bridge jacks for my 4-post) and you may have better luck with him as he's higher up the chain.

i didn't deal with bendbak at all. just went straight to SGS. i told him what i wanted, he ordered them and had them shipped to him. brought them over on his rollback truck and had the install done in a day. could not have been easier!

End result:

Champion Lift ordered on Dec 20 from Chesapeake Petroleum. Delivered and installed today (Feb 28). So far, happy with the installers and the lift. Not happy with the salesguy that called me after the lift was 90% installed and wanted to add extra labor charges to a contract that was signed in December. No, I didn't pay the extra charges but I don't like having to argue.

And a special thanks to Charlie/Intersport for help getting the lift from the flatbed into the barn which neither I nor the installers could have done due to a wicked driveway to the lower part of the barn.
