Amazon.com Product Review:
Load, lift, and store up to 250 pounds of heavy items against the ceiling with the cable-lift storage rack from Racor. Without having to bust out the ladder, the rack lifts stored goods up to 8 feet in the air for storing against high ceilings. With 4 square feet of storage space, there's plenty of room for several large boxes, planters, hoses, tires, and more. Steel support cables offer optimal stability and are vinyl coated for rust resistance. Heavy-duty support beams ensure plenty of support for full loads. The system raises and lowers with the handy winding axle. Just to get you started; here's a list of some of the things you might put up there: file boxes, outdoor furniture, lawn mowers, big tools, snow throwers, large toys, canoes, kayaks, holiday ornaments, tires, ladders lumber, third row car seats and just about anything else you can imagine. --Brian D.

- Convenient storage but not trival to install or use
I've had two of these for several years and just got another since the price was good. The hardest part about installing them was the hot weather. But I can't blame the manufacturer for that. If you measure properly and make sure that you know where your beams are, then it's a matter of making appropriate sized pilot holes so you can get the bolts in without killing yourself, but assure that they won't come out of the ceiling either.

There have been a few comments about the spacing of your joists. 16 inches has been a standard for a long time, which makes them 48 inches apart with two in between. If they were off, it would be impossible to use standard sheet rock to build your walls, pass building code inspections, and so forth. If your house is old enough that it predates the ... Read More

- Variation on installation.
I have ordered 2 of the HeavyLift hoists. I have read most of the best reviews, and I don't have the instalation instructions. I am considering using 1 full sheet of ¾" plywood mounted to the ceiling on which I'll mount 2 hoists. It would solve the issues of the best location for the hoists not being where studs are located, and be able to do more precise work on the floor or bench instead of overhead on ladders.

Procedure: Install plywood into studs on the ceiling with better lag bolts and washers where I want the hoists. Remove the plywood and install hoists' frames, w/bolts and "T" nuts thru the plywood. Therefore, individual pieces could be easily removed if necessary without taking everything down. Reinstall this assembly to the ceiling. Finish the installation of hoists' ... Read More

- ASSEMBLY NOT FOR THE TIMID OR FOR THOSE WITH A LOW GARAGE CEILING
I was attracted to the idea of this device but assembly was difficult. There were numberous pieces and the instructions were not very helpful and in the end I needed to have my handyman complete the assembly and installation. The hoist works fine now except that it hangs so low to the ground that I feel that I need to lower my head walking under it.

- It works
Overall, a very good product. The instructions leave out a very important step. You need to determine which side you want the crank to be on, before you secure anything to the ceiling. I found that the two ends aren't interchangeable, so I had the wrong side facing out from the wall.

Besides that, it wasn't too hard to assemble, and it works as advertised.

- Great Product - Labor Intensive Install
The HeavyLift is awesome! Does exactly what we need it to do. The hand crank gives you quite a workout - it takes a few minutes to raise or lower it, but it gets up and out of the way.

Installation is a different matter. The arms are heavy enough that working over-head for any period of time is challenging. I recommend creating a template, predrilling the holes, and using a cordless drill to install the bolts. Having two people would have made the chore much easier.

Overall great product - you'll soon forget the pain it was to get the thing installed!
