VEVOR Hand Chain Hoist, 1 Ton 2200 lbs Capacity 20 FT Come Along, G80 Galvanized Carbon Steel with Double-Pawl Brake, Auto Chain Leading & 360° Rotation Hook, for Garage Factory Dock

Works great, alot better then the older models

I haven't used a chain hoist since I was a kid. This one work smoother than the ones that I used way back then.I bought the 1 ton unit with 20' of chain. That's a LOT of chain. I forgot how slowly these things run. It's about a 30 to 1 ratio I think, so you'll be pulling about 600' on the control chain to raise the load 20'. That gets old fast, but this doesn't require AC power and it's pretty easy to move.Another thing to keep in mind is that the lift chain is almost drippy oily with black oil. That's probably why it's so smooth. But it'll get black oil stain on anything it touches, and as it lifts the chain comes down on your load, so watch that.Some folks seem to have trouble with it being jammed on delivery. It comes fully extended on delivery, or at least mine did. So the little tiny chain loop on the end should get bigger as the chain is pulled back up. Slowly work the control chain until you get it moving the right way, and do not expect this to work properly in any position except vertical. They need the weight of the chain to keep the gears engaged. They ALL work like this, and have for the 30+ maybe 100+ years that people having been using this type of hoist.

Effortless lifting of heavy items. The longer chain makes this item more versatile. Works well in the garage, but the longer chain makes tree work very easy. We use this hoist to lift heavy ferns into place in large trees. Shopped hard for this item and feel the value for the money beat all other sources.

I honestly bought this for one job and it worked exactly as expected for a relatively low cost. Tye chain was covered in an anti rust coating that was a pain in the ass to get off but it you use gloves or don't care about black hands you'll be fine.

I bought this item to help with hanging deer. I live alone. This will work great in assisting me with that process.

Nice chain hoist. Good quality built.

Works like a charm

This hoist works well. I have used it on numerous occasions and it hasn't let me down.
