Quality


Great product works exactly as it should.


Very pleased with the initial performance of the winch.

Price


Price is great and product is great.


As far as installation goes you have to understand one reason it's got such a low price is it's packaged so one size attempts to fit all.

Save yourself some time and go down to home depot and get it while it ships.

Competitiveness


I had a smittybilt 10k winch on a pickup truck in the 90's then moved it to a jeep in 2009 and it never failed me until.

    If you have a 2020 sahara and the barricade bumper you have to mount the solenoid box over the motor cause the wires won’t have enough room and will hit the grill if you use the other two mounting options

    The only thing that really concerns me is the waterproof rubber seal where the remote plugs in is too small for the hole and with time i’m afraid it’s going to stop working

    I had the winch installed in around two hours by myself
