My experience is you get what you pay for, especially with winches.
I've seen a lot of Smitybilt winches returned as defective or because people weren't happy with em and ended up with a Warn. Looking at the manufacturers site they look a lot like Superwinches to me. Might be A good buy, never heard of em before thou. They don't list the gearing, so no telling how fast or in the case of Smitybilt slow the line speed is.


If you get one thou, be sure to post an update.
