1) Just drive the vehicle on and you're ready to start working
2) I can move the lift anywhere in my shop. No need to bolt it to the floor or worry how thick the concrete is
3) The ramps make a great place for holding tools, parts, nuts and bolts
4) Full access to the underneath of the vehicle
5) It can make a great height adjustable workbench when needed
6) No worries about dinging a door when get in and out of the vehicle
7) No worries about the vehicle falling off
I've never had any issues performing suspension or brake repairs. I use scissor jacks when I need to lift a wheel. I did have to notch my lift so a Porsche motor could fit through the middle though.
In a perfect world, I'd own both a 2 and 4 post lift

Also a four post can serve as storage lift without hanging your suspension.
