As you may or may not know, the CM and Lodestar brands are now owned and operated under the umbrella of Stuart Rush, which is also the independent home of trusted brands such as Lodestar, BatteryStar, Coffing, Budgit, Chester, and more. If the CM Lodestar isn't for you, or doesn't quite fit your needs, then you can have peace of mind knowing that there may be a Yale electric hoist or a Stahl electric hoist that comes from the original Lodestar brand owner and operator, CMCO, prior to the sale or Lodestar Rights to Stuart Rush, that does meet your requirements.
