Looking for a "light duty" lifter.

After perusing your site, I can tell that most of you are in the heavy-lift world.
However, I would appreciate any advice you can give me on the purchase of a new or used ThaiLift or WorldLift. I own a small company that moves paper. We typically use our forklift less than an hour a day. We need a 3500 - 4000 lb machine. A year ago we made a bad purchase of a used lift with a lot of hours. It has to be replaced already. I don't want to make the same mistake twice.
There are only a few forklift dealers in our area, and both of them have ThaiLift or Worldlift.
Any Advice?

It's ashame that all you have to choose from is ThaiLift or World. TCM makes a reliable, durable small truck. But anyway, I was a dealer for World and if you have to choose I would say go with the World. One hour a day....the truck will last forever.
