If you are in the market for a drywall hoist, stop looking! These commercial quality lifts feature top grade steel, locking outriggers, and quick and easy assembly. Now you can install drywall without running to the local rental store and/or calling all of your buddies to help you finish your basement ceiling. Let the machine do the work and let your buddies enjoy their weekend at home. Today's technology housed in a robust design will provide you with years of service.

Nice lift. Works as described.

This is the best price on this product I could find (even the ususally dirt cheap Northern Tool catalog sells this for over $300 plus shipping!). Unit is plenty strong for me as I was just putting up 1/2 inch 8ft sheets. How it would do with a 12 ft 5/8 inch sheet I couldn't say. Three men could install drywall faster, but if there's no help, this thing is invaluable. A helper finessing the sheet into final position while you start a few screws would still be suggested.

Although Bulky and Heavy, It Gets the Job Done Right

If you're seriously considering hanging a drywall ceiling yourself and can't convince four strong friends to break their backs for pizza and beer--buy this tool. I recently bought a home with a totally unfinished 2-car garage. As I installed the wiring, windows, insulation, and walls I kept pondering "How in the world am I going to hang a drywall ceiling." After doing some research and talking with several tradesmen I decided to buy this tool. It basically allows one person to lift and hold an entire sheet of drywall (or paneling) on a ceiling or wall, then screw that sheet into place. Without using it, which I've done in the past, it took every bit of energy and every creative bad word I could muster to get the job done. This tool is strong and very well made, which makes it somewhat heavy to lift, but it comes on wheels. And with the legs extended it may be difficult to get into small spaces like most bathrooms or closets. However, it allowed me to do the job myself and save big bucks. No regrets on this purchase, although if doing it over I would probably get the less expensive model because I don't need the capability to reach 15 ft. ceilings.

Great time saver. Shipping is a bit pricy.

I used this to hang about 100 sheets of drywall in a new building, by myself. Great product ! Save loads of time and no sore back ! I had bought the extender also since I had 14' vaulted ceilings also, and this worked like a charm. I really like the fact that it can break down into 3 pieces for storage. I will also be using this for the new house we are building, so I will definitely get my money's worth on this purchase.

I was disappointed that the shipping was almost as much as the porduct. What's with that ?
