Andersen WD hitch thoughts?

Thinking about going to an Andersen WD hitch instead of my Equalizer E2. The hitch head is heavy, have to store the bars, etc. I've seen some issues with Andersen causing damage to the A-frame on TTs; the set screws being an issue; among other things.

My TT is about 6,000# loaded with estimated 750# hitch weight.

For those that have the Andersen, what are you experiences? Is it easy to use? Effective sway control? Any concerns or problems?

    "The hitch head is heavy, have to store the bars, etc."

    The Anderson uses chains instead of bars and the hitch head is like a standard drop hitch, except it has the extra stuff for the sway control built in.

    I don't have any experience with them, so can't comment on that part. I'm just a WD bar type of hitch, so just deal with the bars and the hitch head..
