How high can I lift? How long is the rope?

The wire cable is probably 40 feet. I lift about 18 feet with plenty of cable left over.

It's a cable, not a rope. The unit I received was a piece of junk that didn't work at all, so it wouldn't have mattered whether the cable was 1 foot or 50 feet long.

I have used this type of rope for climbing. I bought some grip tape an wrapped it at intervals the length of the climb. It worked fine. 1.5in dia. is the most common for climbing.

It is very straight forward, but keep in mind that the gain you get in lifting power shrinks the distance you can lift, or requires a long rope. The standard 75 feet of rope that comes with it allows a lift of about 8 feet. Also, there is no brake, so if you let go, your load will drop. I use mine to lift iron plates out of pianos and it works fine. I got a jam cleat out of West Marine to serve as a way of quickly holding a load in place. You can use any way you like to tie things off once lifted, but I find this convenient.

Good afternoon, SopranoGI. The overall length of the rope is 83.5". Additional rope will need to be purchased. Thank you, Sarah | HearthSong Customer Service

The rope is very thick. Not sure how thick, but plenty to hold even two people. I weigh 230. I love these things. Only wish the rope was 35 ft.

I honestly don't recall how long the provided rope was because I replaced it with a stronger, smaller diameter rope immediately, which permitted me to use a 16 ft rope.

Hi-It's 61" end-to-end, and 14.5" wide. Including the pulley system and hardware on the rack itself for hanging, I think the closest you could raise it up to the ceiling is ~8". There is a very long rope included with a cleat that you mount on the wall for securing it, so you could raise/lower it to whatever height you want, there aren't any pre-set limits for that. Basically, you tie the rack to the rope, then wind the rope through the pulleys you mount in the ceiling, then you can smoothly raise/lower it to the height you want, then wind the rope around the cleat you put on the wall to keep it from moving after that. Hope that helps! Hi-It's 61" end-to-end, and 14.5" wide. Including the pulley system and hardware on the rack itself for hanging, I think the closest you could raise it up to the ceiling is ~8".

The model sold by Amazon only has a working height of 12' but a rope replacement of 100' part# TTUG02 giving you 25' working. This is a 4 to 1 ratio puller. I hope this helps. I had to get the longer rope for the one I had purchased.

My son said it's about 6 feet. Not sure how accurate that is but he has hung it around two medium size trees. However he recommends having a longer rope

I am giving a rough estimate here, I say it's about 6 feet or so, and there is also the extension pole that will make it easier to reach those hard to reach high places. The whole canister is not heavy when full either, so if necessary, you can lift it and place it on a counter or table as well. Hope that helps!

Darlenis,The lift is approximately 23 inches from floor to top of lifted table top. Excellent height even for taller individuals.Hope this helps.

You got to remember there is only 65 feet of rope. To be exact it is 8 1/2 feet. Have someone hold the stationary block pull out the rope holding the traveling block all the way out to the end of rope that you pull on. The more rope you have the longer the lift.

It's about 5 feet maximum. If you need to go higher, I think you need to put on chair or ladder.

The swing I received was 11'6" each rope. I am positive, we measured it because we were hanging from a 12 foot branch.

I can't get out in the cold to measure it, but it is reasonably long for most uses. If you want to let it go straight down for a long way, then just tie another rope onto the handle end and let it go as deep as your rope can go, then jerk it up

The lift distance is about 5 feet. I have had to add a chain for some applications to get extra length. This chain hoist works great but is very heavy. I personally would have bought a lighter model for my use.
