this motor is making in China, how long does it last?

Ours just died. We got just a little over 3 years of use from it. We rarely used it for the bubbles in our hot tub but used it 8 hours a day/7 days a week to run the pool sweeper.

Usually you will get 3-5 years out of a motor, on average. It really depends on how often it runs.

It's made in China. I got that from an online store that only sells compressors.

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).

Hello my friend I bought this motor last summer and is very good with a battery of twelve Volt operates approximately 4 to 5 hours

Tl;dr- China, and maybe.I bought this for my g/f and she and I are both pretty happy with it, but it isn't like buying a hakko or metcal where you expect it to last until the sun dims. Having said that, when I cracked the heating element it was quick and easy to find parts both locally (Fry's) and online. Whether that will be true in ten years remains to be seen.

It's ok. Sold cheap, and made in China. But don't worry. I've mine for over a year and it works well.

Doesn't say specifically anywhere on the machine where it is made however on the motor I do see some Chinese writing if that's an indicator

It is made in China but the engine is pretty much a Honda engine. It is the finest and most reliable generator we have ever owned.

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.

I don't remember. I only use the motor in my CNC machine. It has been a great motor though and when I finally burn it up (it runs for long periods of time-15 to 30 minutes at a time between bit changes) I will be buying another. In fact I have been thinking of getting another now to keep on hand.

Sorry, I don't have the information. I'm working in China and didn't take it with me. I believe it was sometime in 2015, and was purchased around 10/13.

I believe it was China, and it is a piece of junk. I got a much better one from eBay for about $3

I just went out and looked at my snow king engine and couldn't find anything stating it was made in China. Someone stated it was. Looked up a few online discussions about problems with the motor and it seems to be a split decision. For the most part I have had good luck with it. The only problem has been starting the big guy. Good thing it has electric start. I'm a strong guy. Ride snowmobiles and can give an engine a hard tug for a while. Never had much luck pull starting it. Ran out of gas once doing the neighborhood and drug it back to my extension cord. Has tons of power. Super impressed with the amount it will clear. Just a hard starter.

Well if it is over a year old and has been used weekly, it is at it's maximum life span. Mine lasted 1 1/2 years of light use and it quit. To my best recollection, the instruction manual said the motor is only good for 50 hours or so. Of course, nobody reads that fine print until they have problems. I stand by my rating of this blower as horrible. My first one only lasted 2 weeks and Lowes replaced it for free. Just not a good buy unless you're happy replacing it yearly for that price...

Pramac America lists the parts. There is no name on the engine, so it is probably Chinese. That said, the external quality is as good as an American made engine and it starts and runs well.

China and usually a 30-90 day warranty. U can buy replacement parts at lhasaoms.com and UPC medical for cheap, but switching out the parts requires small nimble fingers- I did it with minimal swearing within 1 hr
