5 star

Wow, what a beast! Fit and finish are impeccable. Direction for install are the typical graphical nonsense which I find very confusing, but I got it done none the less . Use it on a one ton truck with camper. Warn epic hook a nice touch.

very durable

Warns are pricey but this is my second one in 30 years. I got the xenon platinum for its water proof. I tend to go in a lot of water. Warns are very reliable and probably the best winches ever.
