I went To Harbor freight this morning and I was looking at their small hoist which only leaves up about 500 pounds and the price was near $60 with only a 5 foot chain. So I just kept browsing around Amazon and found this 10 foot chain with a 5 TON rating for $44.50 its a prime day deal normally $140 and it's the number 1 top seller in hand chain hoist, seems good to me so I got one. Lmk what y'all think

sort reviews by newest first and then buy at your own risk... this looks like a 'too good to be true' item

I'm not buying any Prime Day deal where 3C doesn't have a pricing history for the product, like this one. Too many shenanigans going on over at Amazon.

Interesting info on the ccc;
3rd Party New Price History
This is the price charged by third party merchants for items in New condition.

Type Price Date
Current $119.99 Jun 22, 2021


No Amazon history and only shows today for third party yet it has lots of ratings

I was just posting on that topic. Seems really odd

Aside from 1 damaged in shipping type review, it looks like the bad reviews are primarily on the 1 ton version... i may give this a shot...

More people applying 'planned obsolescence' instead of standard evolution/progress/innovation scales.

'Preppers' are beginning to look like geniuses.

I would never hoist a car engine with this, but it does serve some other purposes in my garage, specifically as a hoist to pull heavy items up in the attic above garage. I just might also use it to pull off an small outboard engine off my boat if I ever needed.

I almost bit, but then I realized that the extra capacity means that it weights 80lbs. I'll wait until I find a 1-2 ton that weights 1/4 to 1/3rd as much.

That's f'ng heavy. Wonder what the shipping cost on this alone would be.

How does this manual thing work? How is anyone going to be strong enough to pull an engine block up? unless you're using something to raise it after you manually pull the chain to adjust the height

The seller looks to be good, if it was a "just launched" then no way.
If it's not what it is supposed to be then send back. Good find, thanks... no idea what I will use this for but who doesn't need to lift 10000lbs from time to time.
