I had almost the same aid and it lasted about 5 years so I bought another. It cracked in one year. How long does this model last?

I haven't had this one that long. My original one was similar I got in rehab in 2002 still have it. When using heavier compression stockings it could compromise it but I cannot use some of those new donners because you need more agility than I have.

I've had mine for just a few months so I have no idea what it's longevity will be." So far so good!"

Since mine is really too wide, I don't use it as often as I should and have only had it 5 or 6 weeks. Wish it were narrower like the ones I had seen before ordering it.

We had one previously lasting over 10 years but haven't had this one a whole year yet. However my hsband has been very pleased with it.

the longest I have used this is 1.5 years. I had one that failed inside of the first 6 months. Cuisinart replaced it, after much haggling, with a new one. That one last 1.5 years then failed with a bang (literally).

I've had mine for about 2 and a half years now and it just broke. It's also seen heavy use. If you do the occasional job.. you're probably fine.

The one I have now is my second one. I would say I had my first one for at least 10 years. I used it mainly in my car. The reason I replaced it was the material was starting to wear. Hope this is helpful.

Mine usually only last about one year. Then you have to toss it and buy another. I'm on my 4th.

My first one lasted over 10 years. Read my earlier review for more details.

I'm on my second one, the first died after 5 years of moderate use. No blade cracking problems for me, with either machine.

I'm not sure what was the old one like. I had mine for six months now and using it almost every other week and so far so good. The only thing is before I bought it I had read this concern so I'm carefull not to over load it or lift it with tension.

Most of these devices have a short warranty and it helps where you buy them (Amazon). This is a very good aid for the money, the batteries last, and they dampen loud grand kid sounds. I've had mine for about a year with no problem. I will buy another one, (spare). I have molded ear inserts, with air hole, I use with the aids. Buy it.

My original one lasted about 11 years. The only reason I replaced is because I dropped it breaking it's leg. One of the most basic of appliances, there is very little to go wrong. New one has been great and I hope to get as many years from this one.

i had the first one about 4 years when it withered and died. it performed so well i ordered an identical one and have had it a year or so. no problems at all.

I've had mine for a few months and have used it a lot...sometimes I put too much in, but I've not noticed any gouging. Doesn't it have a 10 year guarantee? AS long as it still works and it's just looks, I personally wouldn't worry until it looks like it might actually be breaking apart. I guess it's just a bid DUNNO from me

The first one I bought lasted about 3 1/2 months, and I just got a new one because I like it so much. I use it every day, many many times a day. I think all I do is wash pump and bottle parts.

Hey Marian, This one feels a lot lighter than my first one I had using for over five years, but I don't get the five years warranty. So I hope this one last as long..

no, not at all. I've had one I've used for five years. The plastic seems a bit more flexible, and doesn't seem to crack.

So far mine lasted over a year. Just follow the directions as it says and I feel you will be very pleased with the results. I definitely recommend it:-)
