Anbull 12V 4500lb Electric Winch,Synthetic Rope ATV UTV Winch with Mounting Bracket/Wireless Remote Control for Towing ATV/UTV

This is the second winch I've bought from Amazon, this Anbull 9500lb winch with synthetic line was a much easier install than the first one (smittybilt) I got. They serve different purposes, but I found the Anbull much more user friendly on the install and use. The wires from the control box were all color coded and the protective covers easily slipped over the connections. The box mounted right on the rails in a few seconds.The winch mechanism operates smoothly and efficiently, the motor didn't get hot while I was using it to pull my 8000 pound truck. The engage/ disengage lever is smooth and not hard to switch positions with.I used a hitch mount and installed a front receiver which only took about a half hour. Also installed a quick connect which allows me to switch the winch from front to back easily and in a few seconds. Best for my use. For the products in this price range, this was absolutely the best money spent in terms of what I get for what I paid. The remote control is unbeatable. I never even plugged in the hardwire lead... why would I?? Customer service was great and answered questions on the same day I asked.I uploaded a short little video trying the winch out.

one of the best buys for a winch I've ever bought. love the wireless remote. I was very impressed with the quality. all the wiring was color coded so it was very easy install. I actually went out and got my UTV stuck so I could check and make sure the winch was water proof. worked like a charm. the wireless remote was intermittent. so I changed the battery in the remote and pulled out all 50' of Synthetic rope and the remote worked without flaw.

Bought for our side by side, works perfectly. We have helped pull a few friends out and use it to secure to the trailer when traveling. It’s a little slower than I would prefer but it gets the job done. We also had to order a separate mounting bracket for our side by side, the one that came with it didn’t work for particular ride. Overall you can’t beat the price and it arrived sooner than expected.

Worked perfect on may car hauler! Low noise and easy to wire up, everything is color coded

Nice complete winch kit. Both the wired and wireless remotes worked well. I read some reviews that the supplied wiring was not long enough. I removed the air box to rout the power wiring as directly as possible to the battery terminals while keeping the wiring neat and hidden. The Red lead was just long enough to reach the positive terminal with no slack. The Black lead had about a foot of slack. When the air box was reinstalled and the boot was put back on the battery terminals, no wiring was visible. If I would have bought a name brand winch with synthetic line, the cost would have been double. Great bang for the buck. So far...

Works great for pulling cars onto my car trailer !

I liked how it worked the first time the second time it didn’t work tried to get in touch for the the one year warranty no way to get in touch for warranty couldn’t get it in touch with anybodyI would not recommend this winch

I've had 2 Warn winches and 2 Badlands winches before. The 9k lb Warns worked well, decades ago, on the front end of 3/4 ton Suburbans; my recent Badlands 2.5k lb winch purchases were disasters: each quickly and easily foul-wrapping the wire cable around the winch axles, outside the drums. So, I turned to seeking a synthetic rope winch, choosing the Anbull 4.5k lb model.The good: The Anbull spools in and out in good form, with no foul-wrapping issue. It's pretty quiet, and certainly powerful.The soo-so: It's extremely high gear ratio makes it extremely slow, even with just an approx 1,500 lb pull up a fairly modest incline. Would be great if a lower gear ration and faster retrieve could be offered.The BAD: The horrendous amount of wiring and two boxes that come with it was impossible for two seasoned handymen (a neighbor friend and me) to sort out for just using the wireless remote. The manual was of no help whatsoever! And I couldn't find any online help either. So, I turned to a very simple, completely self contained, solenoid control box I still had from one of my Badlands purchases, and connected that to the Anbull winch. Then, using the Badlands wireless remote, the winch worked perfectly! See my attached photos for the comparison of the Anbull wiring maze (including a small box with very thin 4-wire wiring which the Anbull manual completely ignores), and the elegant Badlands solenoid installation I made.So, my conclusion is that if I had to deal with the Anbull wiring mess, I would have already returned it to Amazon for credit. Having the simpler solenoid box connection from Badlands solved my issues and the winch is a keeper.Anbull, you really need to simplify your wiring connections, and make sure your instructions are relevant to the winches you are selling.
