I have an ancient EZ-1000 drum winch.

It has worked fine up until this pass spring. I rebuilt it this summer but it has malfunctioned again and I have decided to replace it. I am considering an EZ-Anchor Puller Rebel 4.

However, before I sell off one of my kidneys to pay for the Rebel 4 I thought I would find out if anyone has had any experience with the Chinese anchor drum winches.

I am looking at a 1000W Freefall Boat Anchor Drum Winch sold by Gibson Boat RV Supply in Florida. Gilson sells on eBay, Amazon and Bonanza. Price is about a $1000 less then the Rebel 4.
