Review on High-powered Goldenrod Electric Trailer Winch: 3000LBS Max Load Capacity by Tony Meyer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Broken belt "test " shows that this is a heavy duty winch.

This is a tough and heavy guy, I accidentally got a hook on my trailer. Thinking my boat was difficult, I kept trying to get the boat onto the trailer. TW9000 got loud; grumbled and groaned ----- and eventually the strap broke about 8 inches from the hook (the tag said the strap had a breaking strength of 4900 pounds). After using the freewheel to remove the entire belt, I found that I had actually bent the bolt holding the end of the belt in place and also ripped the belt around that bolt. However, I just rewound the tape onto the core and just tied the tape to the hook and it works fine now - just as quiet as before.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • No machine gun
