Good Quality
Purchased this to replace an older hitch, good quality heavy duty should last for many years. Easy to set up on my RV and truck. Would recommend.

Have large wrenches, will travel.
Set up, easy.Ease of use, same.Stabile control? Not bad at all.I went through the mountains with this attached to my old camper with very little difficulty in steering control. A piece of advice, invest in a set of larger impact 1/2" Drive sockets, wrenches, and rachet. It will make set up much faster.Tear down after the trip was a breeze. Even though I could not for the life of me get it back in its box like it was shipped. Oh well.I recommend this product to others with smaller campers that are prone to being top heavy. Worked well for me.

Robust hitch. Works great.
Found a video that was easier to follow than the written instructions. Used for a 25 ft travel trailer.

The item is fine, just the packaging is sub-par.
The item only suffered minor cosmetic damage due to poor packing/shipping. I don't know if UPS is the problem, or if the seller didn't package it well. The box arrived nearly in half, and had about a half roll of packing tape on it. Granted, it isn't lightweight, which is why I think the shipper should have a better packing system. The hitch itself is fine. It's heavy steel, so other than paint being scraped off the receiver portion, it's fine. All parts were included to properly install the hitch, and the construction is on par/standard for the type of hitch. I already owned a 12k pound weight distribution hitch; this is the 14k version. Curt has manufactured a great product. and I would ultimately recommend this hitch. The price is actually better than many of the lighter weight hitches available.

Heavy duty
Really surprised how heavy duty this was made. Pull 25 foot trailer withcar and golf cart. Suburban sits level now.

Heavy duty
It didn’t fit for what I wanted to try to do. It is very heavy duty and pretty well built. I was going to use it on a dump trailer but the control box was in the way.

No more SQUAT. Just what I needed.
Pulling a 3000 lb trailer with a vehicle rated at 3000 lbs until I can get a new vehicle. The WDH eliminated the squat and leveled everything out. Will be using this with my next bigger vehicle as well.

Low Quality control
Missing several pieces. It came with totally an unrelated part. It was like 2 partial orders were returned, repackaged and resold.
