Harbor Freight Lift - air vs hydraulic

[Midrsv]

I am probably going to be buying one of the Harbor Freight lifts. They have a deal now at $200 for the hydraulic unit vs $379 for the air lift unit. I don't mind spending the extra money for a air assist if it is worth it. During the riding season I would probably use the lift 3 or 4 times a month for cleaning and service. I'm sort of thinking that a couple of years from now I would be enjoying the air assist while I have long forgotten about the extra money spent.

 

Those of you with the foot operated hydraulic units, do you regret not having the air assist? After using yours would you pay extra money for the convenience?

I have the air lift and no regrets.
