Pros & Cons
Pros
Great addition to my sso slimline hybrid bumper for my 2016 tacoma. Spooled it up after installation pulling my jeep up a hill. There is a collar with internal splines that holds the hex shank wich drives the gear assembly.
High quality product, the remote is awesome. Previously owned a 9500xrc and was very pleased. My only complaint is i bought here on amazon new, yet the item i got was clearly used or refurbished.
Winch is fantastic. Winches for hrs and the 17. Great winch. Has a very nice look imo.

Highlights
Quality
High quality product, the remote is awesome.
Very sturdy and just great winch would highly recommend
-extreme power and pulling capability-never failed on several pulls.
Use two wrenches tightening the wires on the motor, the posts are brass and i broke one when i used a socket wrench.
Price
The price was very good and affordable to buy.
Great winch and a great price compared to a warn smitybilt came through on this.
Don't think that's right to charge someone full price for a used or refurb item and not disclose that fact.
For the price it is a good fit for my style of use
Shipping
Package arrived early and bolted right up!
Packaging/appearance
I received the box open and after correct installation the winch broke in half!
Competitiveness
Since warn and smittybuilt both have the chinese build their winches i bought this smittybuilt because it was cheaper than the warn.
(smittybilt 12k) practically the same thing as the 10k.
