Torin BIG RED TR9020 Manual Hand Lift Steel Chain Block Hoist with 2 Hooks

Cheryl J Beaton: I used it for pulling stumps out of a swamp to make a pond. This product is replacing a used one ton 15+ year old chain fall.

Nothing yet I disliked about it.

Jerry J: This hoist is exactly the same product as another 2-ton chain hoist sold here on Amazon.
The only difference is the name sticker and the price. 'Torin big red' hoist costs more than TWICE as much compared to the other red hoist you can find here on Amazon.

I bought the other VEVOR hoist, and the chain broke with the load of 1200kg ( rated for 2000kg!?) Garbage>>>

NOW, I bought this one, I paid more than TWICE for this one, hoping the quality will be at least twice as good.... NO... it is NOT.... the same product... the same chains used.. the same Chinese packaging, just somebody decided that they will charge even more than the VEVOR importer does...

DO NOT BUY THIS... I did not even test this hoist to the limit. I am sure, this hoist will fail the same way as the other one did.....!!!!!!

I will request a refund, not a good quality product and there is a cheaper product, the identical product sold on Amazon already, and the difference in price is not justified!!!!!

Vevor chain hoist is $90 and this Torin chain hoist is $180.. and exactly the same product, just a different sticker, and cardboard box??!!!!...

Mako: This item and a sturdy tree made easy work of removing my truck bed when I needed to work on the fuel tank. Have found many other uses for it since them.... Easy to operate and worked very well. Wear gloves as it is well protected from rust.

Allen LeeAllen Lee: Great value. 2 tons for $100. Plenty of travel on the main lift chain.

William Bright: I used this, paired with a Boss Buck Tripod Header II Unit with Pulley, to pull bushes. (I know, I know... the tripod is only rated for a ton, but it proved to be much stronger.) I'm pleased with the performance so far, after three lilacs. I put 1 ¼" galvanized pipe on the tripod for legs, capped off with floor flanges. The whole arrangement survived my 190 lb weight on the pull chain, several times. I'm learning as I go, finding that you have to wet the ground a day ahead of time to loosen things up. Then you take a half-inch pipe attached to a garden hose to wash a little chipmunk tunnel under the bush. ...Much easier than beating a hole through with a rod. Then you pull a piece of hanger wire attached to a light chain, which is followed by your heavier chain or cable (with only one hook). Pull it completely through under the root ball. Hook your heavier chain/cable to the hoist, and pull slowly. Fair warning: your wife will kid you about the muddy mess you are when you're done, but this is much more gratifying than tearing up the family car or garden tractor, and your lawn, to try, and fail, to pull bushes.

Amazon Customer: I was a bit skeptical of the quality of the unit given it's rather low pricetag, but it seems I was probably wrong in that assumption. The lift height is a bit more than what I need and at full extension, the chains sit on the floor of my basement. I think about a foot of the hand chain rests on the floor when it's mounted at about a 7 foot ceiling height. I used this to lift my metal lathe off of its stand temporarily so I could make some changes to the way it was mounted. Other than having to look around for something to attach the lathe securely to the hoist, everything went very smoothly. I had no trouble with the chains binding or causing any problems. While I haven't come anywhere close to the load limit of this unit, it seems to be very well made.

The only reason I knocked it one star is because whomever put it together at the factory didn't do a very good job. Part of the hand chain was trapped between the pully and the case. The only way to free it was to find a small wrench and remove the three nuts holding the cover onto the hoist, pull the chain free, and then to reattach the cover. This was very minor, however. I think it took me all...
