a little over priced in my opinion, as it's the same cheap chinese made winch you can get off ebay for 200 quid.
Look at the gear ratio, some are 254:1....slow. Warn's are 156:1 or there abouts, with a reasonably fast no load wind in speed.

Well, I bought a superwinch lp10000 for £318 and when it arrived it was obvious that it was a cheap Chinese one with nice stickers on.
Ok it was branded, but I dont know if it is any better than a non branded.
I could have bought a non brand with synthetic rope for same price as my superwinch with steel - 8 months later I spent 160 on a synthetic line.
I'd buy as cheap as possible or as expensive as I could afford now, no point getting a cheap branded one cos they're all the same chinese ****.
I reckon it's 200-250 or 500 plus mate to get value for money.
Cheers

Agree. I was looking for a winch and I heard good things about superwinch. I looked at them and to me they're the same ebay crap with stickers on.

I feel a bit ripped off tbh that it's still a Chinese winch.
All I bought it for was a reputable warranty, but as yet I haven't needed it.
Anyway, such is life.
If I was buying again I'd buy a 12000 or 15000 non brand. Those ones with the solenoid clipped onto the drum bars need the solenoid relocating cos the brackets soon enough fall off

regardless of make of winch the 1st thing i would do is to fit an albright solenoid only around £45 a lot more reliable and you can mount them anywhere and there waterproof
