If Two Posts Lifts were one thousandth as dangerous as you make them out to be,...there is no way in heck they would be allowed to be sold.
There are hundreds of thousands of them in use every day in this country and around the world.
Just like anything, danger comes from misuse and ignorance.
As far as a Two Post lift falling over,... that is just insane, In nearly 50 years of turning wrenches, I have never once heard of anyone's lift falling over, of course I don't know a lot of idiots but it would take one to set up a lift that could fall over.
4 posts lifts are fine for oil changes and inspections but when it comes to actually working on a vehicle they are nearly worthless.
Now this is just my opinion and it is worth exactly what you folks paid for it. I do hope the OP enjoys his lift and I am sure he will be wondering why he did not get it sooner.
