To start with the winch is missing the nut for the handle. It was shipped in the original box and was beat up pretty bad. Also was promised on 13th from your sales person. No to happy at the moment.

Installation of DL winch. Worm gear necessary due to tight fit behind fairing. Also junction box done right. Not everyone carries these items. I found etrailer through an Internet search for the junction box.

There sure is, check out part DL11002. It is a Dutton-Lainson 2K Worm Gear winch designed for use with 2 inch straps. The strap for it is part DL24242, and is sold separately.

We used this winch to create a hoist for my roof top box in a way that I can put it on and remove it from my car by myself. It's definitely overkill for the weight of that box, but it works perfectly and the cost was reasonable.

Great product -well built - decent price. Now taking the top off my Jeep is a 1 man 10 minute job , way better than other units that I looked at that cost more. Excellent work on E-Trailers end also

I purchased this winch to use for a boom crane on my 4'x8' trailer. The original was not worm drive and would unwind dangerously sometimes while lifting a heavy load. This doesn't do that. However the unit was too wide so I had to reduce the width of the drum and frame by 1 1/2". I am stating at this time I release etrailer from any liability if the unit fails.

The winch still works great. In fact I bought another to rig up as a powered come-along. It has been very handy.

I did some research on finding the right winch for use in our garage. While some were cheaper I was afraid of the reviews that said they were flimsy. This winch did not disappoint. It is solid, installs easily, and lifts loads as advertised.
Kudos to etrailer on the delivery ... I picked standard delivery and they upgraded my shipping. Not sure why ... but is showed up 2 days later. Thanks!

Justm arrived, I haven't used it yet, but I'm sure it will be fine. Dealing with etrailer is always a pleasure.

I used this winch to move some large machinery. It worked very well and securely managed the loads. The hand crank is easy to turn, but it takes a lot of turns to move the load a significant distance. I ended up removing the handle and driving the gear with a cordless drill to speed it up. If I were to buy this again, I would get the one designed to be used with a hand drill. The cable is a bit hard to tie on to the spool since it is not easy to flex a 1/4-inch cable to a tight radius. Eventually I got it on though, and am pleased with the result. etrailer was quick with shipment, so I'm pleased with their service.

Very well made .I have another brand not as good .Will be getting more soon.

Excellent product and delivery time was very good. I have ordered many items from E-Trailer and they have all arived in a good time and are as depicted. I have confidence in my business with them:)
by: Matt D.11/10/2014
I bought the winch to replace one with a hand crank and a much less forgiving gear ratio. I was able to operate this one with my cordless drill and a socket. Works great.
by: Daniel 09/08/2021
Very well made in the USA, heavy steel, smooth action. The only improvement I would make is an attachment on the spool for a cable.

- Comparing Dutton-Lainson Brake vs Worm Drive Hand Winches
- The main benefit of a worm gear winch like the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch part # DL10970 over a brake winch like the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch part # DL74FR is that worm gear winches don't have a minimum load requirement. If you're consistently over the minimum load requirement then I recommend using a brake hand winch as it will be faster.

This Dutton-Lainson winch is designed to mount on the ceiling for multipurpose vertical lifting operations.by: Matt 03/22/2024
I am only using this to lift 150-200 lbs, taking a topper off and on my truck. It works great, but I switched the loop for a hex drive. A bit of warning, I managed to burn up the motor on a $200 Ridgid 18V drill. For some reason I didn't have issues with my cheaper Ridgid drill, but still something to be aware of.

I purchased two of the DL10954 units to hang a Kayak and Paddleboard above my vehicle in my garage.
The units were heavy duty, much more than I expected.
I have added some pictures of my installation. Now anyone in the family can lower them and get to them when needed.
Thanks Mark

A great hand winch. I’m using two, one to llift a lawn roller and the other to lift a lawn aerator into the rafters in the garage when not in use to open up some floor space. I swapped out the loop drive for the hex drive to speed up the lifting process. They have no problems lifting either of these lawn tools because neither weighs more than 100 lbs. one concern I have is that there is no way to secure the cable to the drum. The instructions show 3holes in the drum to loop the cable through and back onto itself. The drums I have have only one hole. Running the cable over itself seems to be working, but I would feel more confident if it was secured better. Rather than just friction holding the cable in.

We are using it as a winch on our FIRST robotics robot. Super product. The staff was extremely helpful in answering questions about the product specs that were not on the spec sheet so we cold see if it was useable for our robot. Works perfectly! Thank yo etrailer!

- Thanks for reaching out!
Both the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winches # DL10950 and # DL10954 are made in the USA and rated for 1,500 lbs so it really boils down to whether you want option with the handle, part # DL10950, or the design that comes with the looped end, part # DL10954.
Aside from that these are essentially the same winch and will work great for lifting 500 lbs.
Attached are some review videos for you to check out.
