## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Top quality for half the price of others.
*by J***Z on March 6, 2025*

Great looking winch, can't wait to use it. Looks and feels like it's made of quality materials. The best part is, the winch comes completely assembled! I've read about other brands that you really have to put it all together. The wireless remote is a bonus to have.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the best winches for the money
*by C***5 on June 13, 2024*

It’s hard nowadays to find a 12k winch for this price and it’s hard to put a price on the ability to recover yourself from a hairy situation. I’ve always put super winch (made by westin) on par with warn and the pricing is very sonar between both brands. This winch pulls with ease and I’ve used it a number of times without issue. I have it on a hidden winch mount on a F150 raptor and it barely fits due to how beefy it is, but it does! It’s plenty fast enough without moving to a competition winch. It comes with two remotes, one wireless and one coorded…. I messed up and thought my wireless remote was bad or the battery was dead, turns out you just need to hold down the buttons to turn it on.This winch is quieter than ones I’ve had in the past not that noise is really an issue. The barrel light so you can see your rope is a nice touch and the high quality rope is the cherry on top. If you are on the fence, I’d pull the trigger.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best sub $1000 winches
*by N***D on July 21, 2024*

Showed up quick and in one piece. Superb build quality, solid electrical components. This is my second Superwinch. I will report back on this one after some pulls, but the other Superwinch on my ATV has been going strong for almost 8 years now. It survived Alaska and probably submerged a dozen times. Superwinch makes a great product. Be sure to conduct occasional maintenance as all winches need to be maintained.
