Superwinch 1695200 Talon 9.5, 12 VDC winch, 9,500 lb/4,309 kg capacity with roller fairlead

The winch is awesome. Everything I expected and more! It is VERY fast in and out. I use the winch to load and unload cargo trailers on top of a long wedge trailer. This is definitely the best winch I've had to date. Shipping on the other hand was poor at best. It took almost two weeks to get me the item. No excuses. That is ridicules.

Don’t like how it comes with 3/8” wire it’s way to big for the housing. y'all clearly don’t have any common sense for a manufacturing company also the box was torn all to hell then I got to looking the housing was cracked…

This is just an initial swag, I won't have a functional review for a while. This is my second Superwinch, I have the EPi9000 that I ran on my TJ Rubicon that was outstanding. I had to move to the Talon 9.5 because I needed a remote selenoid version for my Grand Cherokee's ARB bumper so I got this. Packaging was super IMO, like a inch thick cardboard crate, really packed well from the factory. Now for the bad factory comments...Superwinch is made in China, as are many of the top winches on the market, this is an unfortunate reality, but this has been one of the top made in China wiches, and their HQ is still in conneticut, so they enforce some quality control that the sub$300-400 winches don't, also better quality components. 2 issues I found while prepping for install into the ARB. 1. there is a bottom bar between the 2 mounting feet, 1 of the screws holding the bar in worked it's way out and was missing, not a huge deal especially the way it mounts in the ARB, but I found several of the allen head screws all over the which housing very loose, so check all of them. 2. this has no bearing on the winch performance, but the "Superwinch" Emblem on the motor was mounted upside down, lol. The Chinese, slave labor assembly line personnel obviously had no clue, Just something from a "Company" perspective that would really piss me off. Okay, thats it for now till I do some performance testing and get some pulls on it.

I bought this for my husbands jeep. He had a superwinch on his old jeep and wouldn't want anything else on the new one. Super fast shipping!

works great

On my Jeep Rubicon. Got me unstuck several times. Seems very strong, also very fast wind and unwind with no load. Would buy again.

Great looking winch, with great reviews. Still have yet to mount it, but the packaging was solid. If you've got Amazon prime, there's really no reason not to buy this, as shipping for such a heavy product itself is often a deal breaker. Was also lucky enough to pick this up on sale for 50% off (I think...got it for $250 cheaper than the current $750 amazon price as of 8/8/13). Cannot wait to get this installed for a functional review. If you're patient, you can score one of these on sale like I did.
