Customer Reviews for Electric Hoist Electric Winch 600kg with 18m Wire Rope and Remote Control

Bought this for an installation that will see occasional use lifting a 500ish pound antique hose cart to a 20' elevated platform. It will be used a few times a year and needs to work when it needed but didnt justify spending 2-3x the price. The quality is good- consistent with Harbor Freight's line of imported tools. It has been cycled with load 8x or so to date and has no issues. I purchased something with a capacity 3x what I needed to allow for a fudge factor, but so far this thing seems to be a champ. If you are looking for bang for the buck this is your firecracker buddy. Try it. -A.K.

I do not like the very short power cord and I would like to have a remote.I am using it to haul heavy boxes up to my attic for storage

works great for what I needed it for. glad I purchased it.

This is a great item, I personally love it doing hvac work

This electric hoist works well... and it has the excellent function of 'half-speed/ double load' by doubling up the cable with the hook at the bottom of the loop. But... it has two small things that may not be so happy acceptable to you!1. The mount is not what you would expect. sloppy. flops around if you hang it on a round galvanized plumbing pipe or even square/ rectangular steel tubing that is not the exact same size as the brackets they provide with the hoist. They show it hanging by those two square "U" shape brackets up top. Well... you'll need to find something that exactly matches the inside of those brackets to hang it on, or you'll need to invent something that will secure the hoist without letting it flop around as it hoists and lowers things.In my case, I hung it from some good old square steel tubes that used to be the structure of my old craftsman (now Chamberlain) garage door opener structure. I then added good old door frame wood shims to wedge the u-shape brackets on the hoist to the steel tubes so that it wouldn't rock n roll in operation!2. The second 'problem' (not really a problem as it does not degrade the hoisting capability) is the terrible NOISE the hoist makes when you start up or release the up/down button on the control thing! The motor makes a horrible grinding noise for about 1/2 second as you start or stop hoisting!The continuous motor during hoisting or 'de-hoisting' (?) is not all that bad.

The hoist Works great . Was what I wanted . Thank youThe shipping was a little slow But I wasn't in a hurry for it anyway . I am happy I bought it

Works Great-- Will pick up a 500 lb. engine with the double line lift with no problem.

I pulled a 2011 dodge charger up hill cause it broke down up onto ramps I thought it would break or snap the cable it seemed to have no problem. Also very light I use it to drab deer out of the woods when I hunt a couple extension cords and a ratchet strap usually gets me where i need from the truck outlet

We built a king size murphy bed. Due to the size and that it folded down from the wall it was too heavy to lift back up. We decided to try the lift and it has been a life saver for us. It has always performed well with no problems at all. We couldn't be happier, our backs thank you for this product!!

Good stuff. Does what it says
