7 years and works fine.
I’ve had my x20 for 7 years. It gets used maybe a dozen times a year for pulling trees off roads to buried in heavy spring snow drifts buried to the frame rails double line pulls . So far it’s been flawless.

It's not a WARN, but it's also not $1300.
I bought this winch back in August, dropped it into my LOD Mid-width bumper on my JKU, and went wheeling. Personally, I haven't had to use it to free myself, mostly because I don't particularly care for getting axle deep in mud with my doors off, but that's just me. I have used it to free multiple friends though, and at that task it performed admirably. In total, I've probably used this winch 5 times with a weight of over 2 ton (not counting resistance from circumstances) each time it has worked flawlessly.The wireless remote is super convenient, and is included in the original purchase price, not an add on.The winch is IP68 rated.The synthetic line is awesome.The speed is great - not painfully slow, and not so fast you can't control it.The winch looks good.The price is untouchable for a winch with these features and this weight rating.Like some of the other reviewers, I was unable to use the center mounts for the solenoid, they just didn't seem to fit right, so I used the included offset mounts instead. No big deal as far as I'm concerned, but if it's important to you, be aware.You'll hear a lot of crap about Smittybilt, and a lot of people saying that WARN is the only winch worth anything... I don't use my winch every day, and I'm not made of money... spending 1/3 the cost of a WARN for a winch that does the same thing just made sense to me.As a fun aside: One of my recoveries was a friend of mine whose WARN winch broke while attempting self recovery. Nobody makes a 100% perfect winch ;)*** EDIT: NOV 25 2018 - 3 years in, the winch is still on the Jeep, still chugging along. I'll probably need to replace the synthetic rope sooner rather than later, but that's to be expected. The wireless has decided it doesn't like to work anymore, but that's alright, because it interferes with my radios anyway, so we end up running on the wire. We go wheeling from April to November just about every weekend, and every time I've called on this winch, it's gotten me out, gotten trees off the trail, gotten friends out, flipped jeeps back on their wheels... I'm very happy for the money I spent on this winch, and would do it again.

confidence
Purchased this winch last year for my JK, wife and I offroad a lot and we get stuck a lot :). This winch is truly a blessing as it has tons of power, 10k model, and love the wireless remote control. I have submerged my jeep, fished around for hook, pulled it out and around a tree (use tree saver), and sucked it right out! I have used snatchblock, soft shackles and other accessories with this winch and it is flawless! I would highly recommend this winch .... the sheer confidence to go into a bad spot knowing your winch will bail you out is awesome.

Great customer service
Had winch almost 6 years and done many hard pulls with it. I toasted the motor once but that was my fault. Smittybilt quickly sent me a new winch motor next day air. I would recommend replacing the power and ground cables with 1/0 gauge wire and replacing the solenoid with an Albright.The winch will pull ever better and spool in faster .Also a gigglepin wireless controller. Smittybilt wireless controller does not work well far from a distance.

Will not clock like a Warn for ARB Safari bumpers
Seems to be a good winch. This model will not clock like a Warn for use in an ARB bumper. It looks like it will, but the hole pattern will not allow 144 degree clocking, only 90 degrees. You'll also need M10-1.25x50 bolts for the fairlead if installed inside a bumper. Otherwise it looks like a well made product. Deduction of one star just because of the clocking issue that isn't readily apparent.

Awesome Cust Service! Love the winch! Had problem with remote year 2, but 2 minute call and new one on the way!
Used the winch many times with no issues at all!Love the wireless option, but coming up on year 2 and the wireless remote would not stop spooling or unspooling when i let off the switch on the remote. Quickly hit the other direction if it starts to do this or flip the red switch on the control box if you near it, to kill power. Luckily i did only a little damage to my fairlead, as i quickly hit the other direction on the remote to spool the other direction and gave me enough time to kill power on the control box. I pulled my cable out and hooked the remote directly to the control box and everything worked perfectly as it should, so i could continue my winching.Called Smittybilt and literally 2 minutes later, they are sending me a new control box, remote, and fairlead (hook did a little damage to it, when it wouldnt stop spooling). They didnt even ask for a copy of my receipt, just asked when i bought it.Thats awesome customer service people! 5 year warranty on electrical and lifetime on mechanical, i feel good about my purchase. At least i know i'm good for another 3 years on electrical and have spare parts now, to rob, if i ever need them past my warranty.I'll continue to buy Smittybilt, as long as their customer service and warranties remains this good!Shout out to Daren in Customer Service, for being so awesome!

Heavy duty
Have only used once to pull 5000 lb tractor with wherls frozen on to tilt bed trailer. Did it but it proved I didn't wind the rope on the spool with enough tension.
