Anyone with experience using a scissor lift?

I've been debating on purchasing a scissor lift for my home garage. First for the boxster I'm assuming you can access the engine/headers/exhaust comfortably. Along with obviously working on brakes/suspension without awkwardness. Am I correct with my assumptions in regards to working on the boxster?

But I don't see this being useful while working on a regular front engine sedan besides just brakes and suspension. There's no way you could replace an exhaust system since the middle of the vehicle is occupied with the lift

Here is a link and a YouTube video to the lift I was thinking about.

Hopefully someone with experience in this type of lift system could chime in and let me know if this lift is a pain to use or not...
