Review: Great Product! Cheap Price!!!! - Im gonna have to give this winch 5 stars.... I usually dont even write a review for stuff I buy on desertcart and I must say I buy a lot. I ordered this winch with 2 day shipping and received it in 1. I have a winch bumper made by shrockworks and while this wasnt the easiest thing to install... It was one of the more easier thing's that I have installed to my 2010 4runner trail edition. I took my truck 2 days later to rausch creek in north easter PA. Had a great time until I was teatering over a rock under 2 feet of mud! haha Needless to say we pull out the winch cable and tied it up a medium sized tree. a couple of short bursts on the winch and I was out of the mud. It was almost too easy! Now when I ride I will keep the activator switch hooked up before I enter an area and keep it in the window so I can control it. I will say one slightly bad thing about this winch package though.... I need 4 slightly longer bolts as my winch bumper has thick steel right in front for where it sits... Went to Lowe's and picked up 4 of em for 5 bucks... not bad. Got some lock-tite as well so it NEVER comes un-done. Bought this with 2 bud built shackles(very nice and cheap aswell), and a high-lift jack for around 50 bucks which is a great price. and works realy well! One last thing... this winch obviously isnt a warn... but if your not doing expeditions across Antarctica then save yourself 800 bucks and buy this heavy duty- highly reliable winch... You'll be happy you did!
Review: A Good winch, and good price when purchased on a sale. - After using the winch now twice, I figured I would give my opinion so far. I like the capacity for sure. I used it on the last run. The hand held remote is big and sturdy feeling, but the snap back of the momentary switch for in and out was so strong it actually reversed the direction. This can be avoided by not just taking my finger off, but actually moving back to the neutral position, but since it was unexpected, it was a safety concern for me (safety is my Master's Degree, so I think about those things). The winch main unit is good with a very useable design and simple operation. Nothing fancy there.Overall, a good winch, but there were flaws. The overall size of the winch is smaller than the old XRC8, and that is a plus. Overall, probably 4 out of 5 tires (a 4x4 scale).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great winch for the money
*by J***. on May 24, 2013*

Have used it at least a dozen times between self recovery and recovering other vehicles. It resides on my Land Rover usually loaded down with gear. Heated up once and it stalled. Let it cool for a couple of minutes and it got me over the obstacle. Has always fired off whether I'm in Moab in July or a down pour on a 10,000 foot peak in CO. It's Not a $1000+ winch. It's an entry level winch as described. I've had mine over 4 years now, still working, nothing broken. It's been drowned a few times through deep river crossings and has always worked when needed. It will stall now and then if pushed. Let it cool down a couple of minutes and it will be back to work. I've never had an issue contacting superwinch. They've been prompt to get back to me. Take the bad reviews for whatever you think it's worth. If your looking for a decent winch under $500 this is it. You want a faster winch with a nice lasting paint job, spend over a $1000 on one. I have no ties or connections to Superwinch. Just used their products over the years and believe them to be a good, reputable company.
