What winch/hoist do you use?

[ovilla]

I'm going to cut another opening in my garage ceiling so that I can hoist the snowblower, mower, edger, wheels, etc., up in to the attic and get back more floor space. It'll also make it easier and safer to take things down/up as needed. Anyway, I was thinking of buying a $100 HF hoist but then I saw an ad for one of these WARN PullzAll hoists. They're 110AC/DC ($198) and even come in a 24V model. Anyway, this sounds like it might be more versatile down the road. Anybody buy one of these yet? What are you using now? Thanks

We use one of those 1 ton hand powered block and tackles from Agri-Supply. Cost about $75.

I bought the 440/880 lb HF hoist for my attic when it was on sale for $89. It works great. I may lengthen the control cable so I don't have to be in the attic when starting a lift.
