As has been said CE certification can be self certified or you can use a friendly inspection company in China that are more of a photcopier company rather than an engineering based standards inspection company.
It is worth nothing.
If you watch Car SOS the have a 1 post lift in the garage they use.
I have a two post lift but living in the country we have room and I built a garage extension to house it.
That vendor is a second level vendor selling on price. I know people who have bought from them and the item works. Others who have bought products that were just plain not a finished product and in the end the items were returned.

Have a look at CJ Autos of Heywood Lancashire's website. They have some ingenious lifting solutions including one and two post lifts at seemingly reasonable prices. I think they make all their own stuff too.

Working for a certification body - you can always check with the issuing body....

In my industry we have come across 500 KW diesel generators with the "CE" mark on them which are direct copies of well known US brand. The importers claim "CE" stands for Chinese Export! You couldnt make it up!!

Is CE approval a good guide to a quality product ? I am looking at car lifts and am trying to access what the build quality is , no idea who makes any of it as it doesn't say ! The CE mark from companies beyond the reach of the legal system ( eg China) is meaningless. I is self awarded and all it says is that the product complies with EU standards and is legally available for sale in the EU. But if it doesnt actually comply, what are you going to do about it? There is no independant inspection.

Those breast implants using industrial grade silicon had a CE mark and that went t*its up.
There is a group action pending against the German company that gave the CE mark.
