It works fine. I have small lawn. You have to be careful of the cord. Cuts great.

The electric motor is very convenient for our small greenhouse. This makes a pretty narrow swath, but it digs in great. The motor isn't very powerful, so you can't chop through sod or rocks at all, but it's perfect for garden dirt. It's easy enough to assemble (good directions), just make sure you put the blades the right direction. I put them backwards to start with and it didn't pull forward. Switched them around and it is a go-getter. p.s. it's nice not to have exhaust fumes from a gasoline motor. I like electric!

The motor is not the strongest but once it gets going it works pretty good. I think it should be okay

From what I remember you should be fine with this motor. I did replace capacitor at same time. Remember to give capacitor some time to charge up after turning power back on. About an hour is plenty. Very happy with motor.

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

I think 5 years is probably pretty good. Mine is on a swimming pool pump and I hope it will last 5 years. The motor I replaced it with only lasted 3 years.

Because it is a motor, you will not be able to get its full potential using 50 hertz power. It will still work just not at rated speed.

The motor is rated for continuous cycle, go ahead and get one, you wont be sorry!

I don't know much about electric, but I just plug it into my wall on the counter. It has been a lot of fun for our family, sometimes all the kernels don't pop, and the shoot that makes you think it will go into a bowl, sometimes shoots out the side. I wish I had had a bit more money to get a larger one for my family. But we love this one and it matches our coca cola kitchen. :D

The unit is very good. Much better than the newest model. I was so impressed with the J8005 after my 20 yr old model that I also purchased the newest vertical model. Hard to clean, stalls out and way too complex - just not good. I believe the J8006 is slightly better than the 8005 that I have and the best they ever made. It is an induction motor and you will have to spend a little over $120 for a transformer or stepdown converter for France 220 volt unless there is a cheaper way.

No, this is Not electric. A friend of mine bought an electric one and he liked it. I just asked him the name of it: Powermatic II He didn't remember the exact price, but that it was around $100. My friend is kind of picky, so if he likes something, it's probably pretty good.Good luck!

No electric motor is dis washed safe. I have washed all the removable metal and plastic parts.

It's electric and plugs into a 110v outlet. You will most likely need an extension cord since the one on the motor is only a couple of feet max. Not a major issue though. So far it works well.

it is an 11 amp motor. no hp rating is shown on the outside. hp is misleading as there is constant and peak hp. compare the amp pull to other machines. this unit's suction is adequate. with the floor attachment in place, it lifts an area rug off the floor. i use the brushes with the floor attachment to make area rug cleaning easy. all-in-all this a very good, but not perfect, machine. read my review for more info.

You need a certain amount of mechanical ability but it can be done. The motor works just fine.

I have a brushed motor in my old stadium truck and so far it works just fine. I wait for the day I can really give my old stadium truck a good run.
