Pros
- Pulls its full 9,500 lb at about 7.5 ft/min, quick for a midsize winch
- Remote shows a load warning before you overwork the winch
- Lifetime mechanical warranty
Cons
- Wired remote only, so you stand closer to the rope
- IP67 sealing, a step below the IP68 of newer winches
- No longer listed with a price on Amazon, so it sells near full list price
