How is the motor on this product? I bought the plastic version and it broke on me after a month...with this one, can I expect better results?

Nope, same crappy motor. I wasted my money spending extra for the metal version

No problems with motor. Does the job and so far I'm happier with metal cup vs. plastic. Only drawback is plastic wheel on top of base that can get chewed up if cup is not all the way seated and locked into base.

The motor is weak.....when I used it.... It was a challenge to mix a few frozen berries smoothly. There was a strong smell of a motor that was about to burn up! I gave it away to a charity after just using it a few times.

Mine stopped working after about 18 months. The issue was motor. The commutator worn out. Friend of mine was able to dissemble the motor and move brushes to fix it, but he doesn't think it would last for a long time. Curiously enough, brushes were not worn. So, it looks like motor has bad design.A side note, the original batteries were not good and died in a few months. I replaced them long time ago.

The one I personally own feels like it would break if I swung at air let alone hit anything with it. However there are videos on YouTube of this mastersword being put under pressure and seemed to hold up. So I guess u just have to get lucky and hope you get a good one.

It should last a long time, it is a plastic ball-joint, buts it's very maneuverable. Unless you abuse this product, I don't see why it would break under normal circumstances.

The sliding shaft broke??? Wow, that's almost inconceivable but contact the seller, they put a lifetime guarantee on their product. How did you manage to break that? Were you trying to juice a baseball?

My motor is fine and I too need the drill attachment piece. I am having trouble finding a replacement online and the more I search the more people I come across with this problem. It seems to me that this drill is inferior...

I have purchased 2 different Cuisinart food processors over the years. The motor has been fantastic--never a problem. However, the "plastic" parts always break at their weakest point on both of my machines. That means I can still use them, but I have to hold the lid in place while it operates. I have bought replacement parts off of ebay and had the same issue with the replacement parts. It is a design flaw, in my opinion, and although the machines have changed a bit over the years Cuisinart has never truly addressed this to remedy it.

The one I have is small. If you have fine motor skill concerns, I would look for another one. Hope this helps.

I had mine for about a month before it began cutting out, so you did better than I did. I was going to try and fix it but I'm too busy at the moment. And here I thought it was the most durable looking of the available ones.

I have had the same problem just last week. The plastic piece on one side, that holds the nozzle in place from the inside, broke. I do not have any idea why. I only use this vacuum for daily very light clean up after dinner. Have had this unit for 17 months and am not happy with the quality of the parts.

Called Coleman and was told they did make replacement propeller but they would replace the 3 month old unit. I would not recommend this motor unless Coleman changes their policy. This is what we get when buying China made products. Coleman is no more then a vender selling China products.

The one I got was broken on arrival, the plastic way too hard and brittle. They sent me a new one at no charge, made of much softer plastic. Works perfectly. Also a rooCase, but not the same model.

I decided on the elite for a stronger motor. I felt it would hold up longer. So far so good.

may variables to this question. When did you buy it, who did you buy it from, standard use? Amazon will return if defective upon purchase. Mine has been work good & strong for the last 10 months daily.

I am sorry , I don't know the answer to that . It is not very strong and it's very noisy . When starting the motor at times is quite a workout . I guess you get what you pay for :)

Hello, Have reviews on both models on Amazon. Had a bunch of trouble with the standard model, and no trouble with version 2. The version 2 has a lot more metal parts in the rotor head and tail, and digital tail servo which is much more responsive. Please see both reviews. So far I would say the version 2 is worth the extra money. Good day!
