what is wattage &amp; motor size? Can anyone who has bought this product tell me anything?

Very difficult to find specs on these machines before buying, still waiting for mine to arrive but have seen somewhere indicating about a 5 amp draw... so that would make it around the 550 to 600 watt range.

this may help. hoes maybe to short.just a guess. ck the volts to much power will make the motor run faster. if any of THESE will not work send it back. thanks

I have not used mine with motor running as of yet,I have it in a Rv and used breathing machine ( c-pap) and also had a 20" box fan running @ same time,when first turned on it said it had 12.68 volts,ran both all nite (7 hrs) and when I looked before shuting off it said 12.06 volts so it didn't draw to much.....I have a 200hp O/B and it only has a 35amp alt so they don't put out much amperage,,,,,,,

The spec sheet says its a 2.4 amp 3600 RPM motor. That implies 288 watts. There are some other low power electronics, like the timer and LED display, these would draw some additional power.

I too would like to know the wattage. I can not purchase without this info?????

I just looked right at the machine and is labeled as 1350 watts!! Honestly, even if this was lower, it preforms very well. I use it to supply a fleet of truck drivers and run it every day of the week and minor issues is all I encountered. We love it!!

I don't know because I plugged it up when I first got it to try it out, then packed it away for a few months. The next time I plugged it in, the motor would not run and I had to throw it away. I think it is not worth buying (in my opinion).

I've read that it's half horsepower, which makes it 373 watts (full horsepower is 746 watts, I googled it). I've also read that this brand is 700 watts. So I don't know which. Somewhere I also read that amps x volts=watts. So I read that it's 120 amps, but what are the volts? If someone can post a pic of the noted wattage on the actual machine, or at least the amps and volts, that'd be great. I know that Cuisinart has a 600 watt 11 cup capacity with dough blade. Still weighing my options.

Joey, I have not used this motor to date. I purchase the motor to put on a new 20' Bennington that came in in January. My dealer and my son assured me the motor would work well. The other reason I chose the motor is that I only had storage for a single battery, and a larger motor requires two batteries. Mick

We did not like ours. Motor barely works at all. Broke or stopped working within days. Sorry

I see three other answers to your question. They are correct, but something else I would like to mention is the high surge current of motors, which may exceed the continuous rated power of 2000 watts. Something to keep in mind when choosing wire size, fuses, etc.

I dont know what the wattage is...but its a great tool to have. Works great and is easy to operate. My only complaint is that there is no instruction manual with it....I couldn't even find one online for it. Other than that, I would highly recommend this item.

I don't know the true wattage or h/p. I processed 2 does with it this fall. It worked great. I had zero problems with it not being able to handle it. It buzzed through everything. Super easy to assemble and clean. Definitely worth it....

Marleen, The specs reference the motor as 600 Watts. Thank you, Prime Time Solutions

I did a google search and found that it *might* be a 300W motor, which is pretty standard. It has three speeds so it might be more.

I do not recomend this item. You have to buy the motor, battery, control, on/off switch....it's a hasle!!
