 Easy-to-use come-along Mar 22, 2008
By "Rock Bar," trail maintainer
The Neiko 1 1/2 Ton Power Puller is a refinement of the everyday come-along. It has similar parts to the everyday device -- two latching hooks, a drum to hold the cable, a handle and ratcheting gears. However the action is different so you can wind the cable in by turning the handle clockwise, then flip a toggle and unwind the cable by turning the handle counterclockwise. You can rotate the handle around and around to continue winding in cable or letting it out. This speeds up one of the most time consuming issues with traditional come-alongs, namely taking up slack before the real lifting starts, and unreeling the cable to get a new grip after the cable has all been taken up.
This strikes me as a come-along for the shop, not the one you can expect to work after you've dropped it in the dirt. The gears and their teeth are much smaller than those in a traditional come-along and one is recessed, which makes it less likely you'll get your fingers or shirt in the works but this probably increases the potential problem of getting foreign material in the gears, which could make it impossible to get an adequate purchase by the tooth on the handle or the dog that holds the drum while the handle is reset. There is no provision to smoothly wind the cable on the drum as it is taken up -- it just goes where it wants. God forbid you should try guiding it with your fingers.
I have not used the Neiko anywhere close to the capacity they claim. The cable is a substantial 1/4". With the device set up as received, employing the cable doubled over a pulley to double the mechanical advantage, the travel from fully extended to completely wound in was 37 1/2 inches, so this is not the machine for pulling something over a long distance, but it's a compact, easily set-up tool for applying force over a modest range.
The instructions were de minimis.
 neiko 1.5 ton cable puller Sep 05, 2011
By rfg
this is the second neiko tols cable puller that i have bought the first one work very well, it was easy to use, no guessing how to use. that is why i ordered another. the new one worked one time and broke, i'm not happy. the ratcheting part broke, so i can't give a proper review. this could be one in a million failure? i'll see if amazon will replace it, and go from there.

Top quality manufacture, and will last very long. only gave four stars because I think that it should have a longer cable.
