VIVOHOMEElectric Hoist, 110V 440 Lbs Winch with Wireless Remote Control, Zinc-Plated Steel Wire Hoist for Garage, Warehouses, Factories 38ft Lifting Height with Emergency Stop Switch ETL Listed

I wasn’t sure if I was going to like this or if it would even work. It was easy to install and it works great! Cannot beat the price either. It has saved me a ton of time and a ton of manpower trying to get things hung up in my garage. Highly recommend

Bought for my father so we could hang deer in his garage. Was easy to install and works great.

I bought this to lift water softener bags into softener after a motorcyle accident. Super easy to install and use. I bought the track system with stops so no worries about moving the bags into the softener from storage. It's been going good for almost a year new with weekly use. I've lifted 3x 40 pounds bags with no issues.

I'm giving this 1 star for now. I received it fast, the packaging wasn't great, styrafoam mess and it looked like it had been man-handled pretty well on the way to my house, not the sellers fault but still. Before you do anything, like mounting this to your wall or ceiling, BE SURE TO PLUG IT IN TO AN OUTLET AND TEST IT FIRST. Before anything else! Firstly, you have to release the emergency stop button by twisting it, I've seen some people haven't figured that out yet. Anyway, I plugged it in, and pushed the down button and it seemed to work just fine. BUT, it will NOT go back up. The controller is very low quality and feels super cheap. Also, the cable to plug it in is only 20" so keep that in mind. I never saw that info when I was researching this one, but I may have missed it. There goes my weekend project, now I have to do yard work, ugh. This is going back and I'm not sure if I want the same unit, I may spend a little more for something with a bit higher quality. Hope this helps and if you buy one, I hope it works for you!Edit: 3 days later. I recieved the replacement today. Packaging was in MUCH MUCH better shape (2nd and 3rd pictures). I have plugged it in before final install, and the up and down buttons both work, including the limit switch. Star rating from me has gone from 1 to 3 stars, however I would realistically give it 2 1/2 stars. Hope to have this fully installed by this weekend and will update my review and star rating then.Edit: About a week later. I received my replacement (as stated above). I was able to mount this to my ceiling using a small pice of 7/8" strut and (4) 3/8" lag screws with some washers to use as spacers between the ceilign and strut, since the 2 hole strap has a arc to it. I was able to actually mount this by myself too once I had 2 of the lag screws inm, I just slip the unit on the strut and installed the last 2 lag screws. Please note, in order to get the 440lbs lift rating you must use the other sheave that comes with it and loop it back up and attached the hook to the unit itself (see close up photo), otherwise, it's only rated for 220lbs. I found this out the hard way, as I started to lift my hardtop off my Bronco I heard something weird. I stopped and the cable had twisted or frayed or something weird (see photo). It's still usefull I believe, and it DID lift the hard top, I just couldn't get my vehilcle lined up perfectly for the hard top to clear the set pins... basically my ceiling is almost too low for this. Also upo lifting for the first time somehow the metal pice that contacts the limit switch to stop the hoist from raising, got behind the button so for about 20 minutes I thought this unit had also failed until I looked closer.Bottom line is this unit WILL work for what I intend it to, I just need to line up my vehicle in the garage perfectly and the straps (I purchased seperate straps) and this should do the trick. I just hope it lasts.

Works as described

This thing is a beast!! It is super strong and lifted with ease! It is so easy to use, it was easy to mount and looks great!

I own a transmission shop for automotive. Transmissions are very heavy and sometimes hard to get on a work bench. I just purchased my second one of these. The 1st one, I purchased more than 10 years ago, and it is still working. I just needed another one and didn't even think of trying a different one. I have to say that it is very durable. I do not in anyway service my equipment well. As a matter of fact, I really abuse it on a daily basis. Nothing else I have owned in the 37 years I've been in business, has every worked this hard or lasted this long under these conditions. Yes.. I mean , SNAP-ON, MAC, MATCO, CORNWELL, have nothing of this quality. That's rite there says it all. I wish everything I had was built this well. WELL DONE!!

A great value in my shop. Can’t believe I haven’t bought it sooner.
