Is the stripped gear still a problem? Or is the new 2-gear model CSB-75 more durable? Thanks!

We had an immersion blender from Bed-Bath-Beyond (and we do find BBB to be an excellent store). The prior product worked fine and I do believe it was operator error which burned out the motor. This blender however is far superior to the former one, and in many ways happy the former motor burned out.

I don't know if the one I have is the new or old model. I purchased it in 2009 and never had a problem; it still works fine. I just ordered a new one and haven't received it yet.

I am not entirely sure, all that I know for certain is my wife loves it, her & I both use it all the time, it works very well, seems pretty heavy duty(as far as hand mixers go you know) & we've experienced no problems w/ it. She's had it for close to a year. & I had also bought one for my mother 4-6 months before I got ours & my mom hasn't experienced any problems either. A little advice, if you do get one, when I got the one for my mom I had found two different packages on Amazon. The one only came w/ the chopper head & the other one came with a whisker, a chopper head & an emulsifier head that holds about a pint capacity. I told my mom of the options before I purchased it for her(the prices were the same or the one w/ 3 heads was only a few dollars more), anyway mom wanted the one that only had the chopper, but when my wife decided she wanted one after she saw my mom's, she requested the package w/ 3 heads & I definitely recommend that one also: so smooth mashed potatoes & a little easy to handle emulsifier like that is just great. Hope I was helpful.

This was a great question. My 2 cycle 33cc is having issues and I was wondering the same thing. Did you end up purchasing it? If so, how does it compare now that you've had both?

I found that it works quite well. I would not advise someone new to gear assembly- the directions are poor and you have to know what you are doing or you will ruin the whole thing. If you have played around with gearboxes and sorta know your way around, you will be fine, works well. Drives to motors to need if gear ratio set to you circumstances.

I am considering a 231 model. I have had a 201 model for 2.5 years.... had to have a flywheel in it for this exact problem after one year. ... now the 201 model is doing it again, and it is out of warranty. .... is the 231 built with better components?? By this post it sounds like it is not.. I bike on this a ton... every day. up to 80-100 miles on a good day. Seems like a waste if it is not. I bought Schwinn because I though the components were the best. .. and not so concerned about the bells and whistles. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

I have not had that issue. My guess (and it's only a guess) is that some type of plastic gear stripped and that you did nothing wrong in assembly. I hope you can get it resolved.

There is a small drag from this style motor. The geared hub motor has no drag, but gears will eventually wear out

No, it was never changed.. it's not being used as before.. but it was used very often for a very long time and all gears / blades are still operational.

Thanks for the information guys. Mine arrived yesterday; it says all steel gear transmission on the box, but my serial number starts with WT47... making it seem like it is older than the WU serial numbers. Any thoughts? - Thanks!

I have owned the Giant Dual Fit for 5 years and have never experienced any problem with it. I use it for 90 to 120 minutes every day at different speeds. I do have the belt drive and after reading your post I checked the condition of the belt and it is showing very slight wear on the edge. I am satisfied with the bike and will use it as long as my health allows. I am 66 years old and consider myself in good shape. Heart is strong, Dr. says the bike has greatly added to that. Good luck in your search.

I know they sell them for a few bucks. Could it be loose in the gear mechanism? You could always return it too back to Amazon

I have not noticed any grinding with mine in 1st or 2nd gear. There is what I would call a "clunk" or "thunk" when you let off the trigger in either gear, and I interpret that as some type of motor brake to stop the chuck from turning.

Hi , it's been about 6 months since I did the gear assembly replacement , so it's not fresh in my memory.I don't know what #41A315-7D or #41A1-7D stand for , or what they are.All I can say is switching the gear assem. was a simple job . The only parts I usrd out of the kit was the gear set & lube. I probably didn't need to replace the screw gear, but as long as I had it , I did so. Go to youtube & watch the videos of the garage door gear replacement . That should answer most your questions .

I bought mine in August of 2013 and its my daily driver. Its still holding up like a champ. Check your other mounts to see if they are good. You may have another busted one and Its breaking this one. That is what happened to me. My transmission mount was busted as well.

We purchased the manual coppermine approximately a year ago. The gear is working perfectly. We have not had a reason to replace it yet. We did purchase an extra blade at the same time we purchased the coppermine and will have to change it out soon. Otherwise it is working without problem.

Most likely the main gear is stripped, you will need to send it back as Spinmaster does not sell individual replacement parts.

So far I have not had any problems with the gears. I use the popcorn maker about 3 to 4 times per week. We love ours!

great question because so much of the feedback on Amazon is for people who have only owned it for 3 weeks or so (and you can't properly evaluate it based on only 3 weeks) I've owned the Schwinn 430 6 months and it stopped working twice. Each time it was the belt attached to the motor falling off, which isn't easy to fix because you have to remove the shell & all it's screws to fix the belt. Needless to say, I'm not happy long term.
