So far so good, I was impressed with the weight and looks. Time will tell the real outcome.

Holding up well after a year. I use mine on a 2500hd and it works great.

Bought to have a black heavy duty hook forMy winch, only flaw is the powder coating is super this and scratches off easy but for the price it’s worth it.

Good looking hook for a great price. One great feature is that it will sit flat and tight to the fair-head when pulled in. It may not be a high end Factor 55, but will work.

Everything is exactly as advertised great build quality and huge improvement over stock hooks that come with a winch. The clasp is solid and it looks great. Have used it a few times and paint is holding up good.

I've been looking for a pocket style or lay-flat winch hook for a while, but most options I've found are $200-300 (eg: Factor 55 Ultrahook, or DV8 Pocket Fairlead), which is crazy for a chunk of steel. You can get lay-flat shackles for around this price, but I prefer hooks. I previously had a Badlands Apex hook (good quality, cheap price, cool looks) with a $30 hook Isolator that *almost* made it seat flat. Even when winched in snug though, the hook would still rotate out a bit due to the round profile of the joint and didn't seat perfectly flush against the fairlead, but stuck out about half an inch.This winch tow hook looks even better than the Apex (same squared-off industrial look), seems to have a better powder coating (almost truck bed liner texture), and seats flat and flush with no movement and no isolator needed. The manufacturer (Autobots) doesn't even advertise this feature, which is odd considering the advantage over traditional hook designs and the price of competitor's products. But the design of the pin being in the middle of the longer attachment prongs rather than at the end means the hook can't rotate against the fairlead - it's mechanically locked/pressed against it when retracted. This makes for a cleaner look and eliminates the need for an isolator or a hook hanger. Looks great, works great, and is a steal of a deal at this price!My only minor complaint is the opening to attach to your winch line/coupling is a tad narrow - I needed to shave a hair off the sides of of my cable linkage to get it to fit. Two minutes with a grinder on my cable connector (does not affect strength) and a shot of spray paint and the new hook slid on and the pin was in. May have just been my equipment, but it was an easy fix.
