Customer Reviews for VEVOR Hand Winch, 1587.5 kg Pulling Capacity, Boat Trailer Winch Heavy Duty Rope Crank with 10 m Polyester Strap and Two-Way Ratchet, Manual Operated Hand Crank Winch for Trailer, Boat or ATV Towing

So far, this thing is working great. It has nice thick metal. Everything about it looks sturdy. I've used it to pull some heavy loads, though perhaps not 3500lbs yet.

I've tried several Vevor products and I have enjoyed them All! This manual winch is no different! Pros: 1. Heavy duty parts 2. Rugged industrial strength build quality 3. Easy operation 4. Can be locked in place to secure item after raising it. 5. Can be unlocked to allow smooth (click free) operation (both up and down) 6. Can be set to safety operation (clicking/locking) on each revolution so you don't get any nasty surprises when raising or lowering heavy items 7. The winch has a two crank setup for gross operation (large gear) or fine operation (small gear) so you can get just the right lift with the least effort and risk. 8. Nice spring loaded hook so nothing falls off the hook (when properly clipped) 9. Strong strap could wrestle Jaws out the ocean 10. Long offset handle clips onto the spindles and offers e cell3nt leverage and comfortable operation. Cons: None Vevor has done it again! This time they've created a sturdy, easy to operate and secure manual winch that will last!

This has got to be the best hand operated winch on the planet…Heavy Duty ..Very high quality throughout..Fantastic strap…! ..HARVEY KERTZMAN

The winch seems beefy for my 1 ton trailer. I bought this to serve as an emergency means to load my lawnmower, golf cart, etc. Having a loading ramp is all well and good but this little guy is the ticket. With a nice garage steel use for construction, I would think a much larger payload than 1200lbs would be needed to distort the winch. The powder coating and factory label were not the best, looking to have been played with by a bobcat on the shop floor one night. Other than that, which I deducted one star for, the winch will function as designed.

This is a replacement winch for my boat trailer. I went up a size, just in case. Fit the trailer well, dual speed is a nice feature and the strap seems like good quality and the stitching for the hook is solid.

I got this for our jet ski trailer as the existing winch no longer locks and the strap is looking pretty ratty. I just got the winch today and although I have yet to install or use it I can't foresee any issues with either the installation or operation. It looks well built and I did operate it (though not under load) but I'm sure it'll work out great. Since our jet ski is only about 600lbs this winch will never be worked hard but I think it would be fine if pushed closer to its weight limits. If I have any issues when I actually install and use it I'll update this reveiw, but I'm not expecting any problems.

I needed a winch for pulling logs up onto my trailer. I got the highest rated one of the bunch and it performs very well. There is some assembly to be done on arrival but it is very basic. Works well out of the box, however I would be sure to grease it. Like others have said, this winch is for horizontal pulling and I would not try to use it to hang things overhead. The hardest part is trying to find a spot to attach it to that is also rated for 3500 lbs... Very good value for the money.

Just have to add the handle and then mount it and it's good to go. Seemed well made and worked fine. Gears and crank worked as smooth as others I use. I think it's good to go.

I ordered this because I am always needing to load heavy objects onto a trailer for hauling. This helps get that job done much easier. It seems well put together, the tow strap is very durable and can easily manage the weight limit. The metal body is a sturdy construction and the cranking handle grip is made of plastic but seems as if it will hold up. The standard hook has a spring loaded latch for locking onto items to be towed and is very durable as well. It's well worth the price.

Review for VEVOR Hand Winch, 3500 lbs Pulling Capacity, Boat Trailer Winch Heavy Duty Rope Crank with 33 ft Polyester Strap. This winch feels substantial. You do have to do a bit of assembly by adding the handle. I like that it has 2 different speeds. I really like the safety clip on the hook, as that keeps straps from popping out of the hook. The winch cranks smoothly and easily. We have a heavier duty, motorized cable winch on our large trailer, which we have used to do things like pull small sheds or cars up onto a trailer. So I thought that this winch would be a good winch to add to our small trailer. Since this small trailer doesn't hold as much weight, a manual winch works well. Some tips: 1) Your winch is only as good as the frame that you attach it to. We bolt our winches to the metal frame of our utility trailer. 2) Get a waterproof cover for your winch (if your winch won't be in a covered garage when not in use). You want to keep the sun and moisture off of the strap, as those will shorten the strap's lifespan. 3) The hook on the winch needs something to hook to. That something also needs to be rated to pull heavy weights. I suggest having some chain or a winch strap (tow strap) on hand to wrap around trees or other odd-shaped items that you want to move. You can buy tow straps on Amazon in different lengths with loops on each end. Just make sure that the winch's hook will easily clip to the chain or strap. 4) Remember that this winch is for horizontal pulling. I'm happy with this purchase, as a lot of times I have wished that we had a winch on the smaller utility trailer. And now I do have one.
