Genie is the ultimate but bigger bucks.
Telehandler is good too if someone to run it.
Scissor wd be my last choice.
Tippy and no traction.


I AGREE! I bought a Genie S60 3 years ago and very well worth every penny. I'm by myself, so I needed controls in the basket. It's very stable too. It will reach over the bin roof to the center cap and I can reach the lids from the basket, very safe for me, as I' m scared to death of heights and getting too old to climb bins, actually not the heights as much as the sudden stop when I hit the ground! I repaired the barn roofs last week with the Genie that the wind removed some sheet metal from. I've even used it to wash my grain dryer and semi trucks, a lot safer than step ladders!

I considered scissor lifts at first, but still didn't like the thought of crossing over to the bin roof and the thought of tipping over way up in the air. I prefer to stay in the basket as I work. Need to have level and solid ground for those scissor lifts.
