Magna Hoists are made in South Korea NOT China like so many other hoists in the market place and yet are almost the same price. Yet are much cheaper than Harrington, made in Japan by Kito Hoist. We have been selling Magna to oilfield contractors on Alaska's North Slope because they come with special grease that allows them to be used down to -40F and they have been very happy, "They work just like Harringtons in the dead of winter but are much more affordable." If your looking for a high quality hoist at a very attractive price try Magna.
