Description says that the motor "oscillates" the pad at "175 RPM". Does the pad spin in one direction or is it really "oscillating"?

It just spins in one direction only and you move it over an area, making multiple passes until you get feel its done. We have a particularly smooth laminate floor. Works great!

Yep - it makes the sound from the motor. The reviews mention it. You should have done more research or return it. I don't know of any that dont'make this sound though...

Picked one up today and it does the same thing. They should at least mention it in the manual. I wasn't sure if it was normal. Apparently it is. Thanks for bringing this up and thanks for your follow up.

No idea. Excepting that the one I bought (large) turns over when put in motion.

It doesn't just spin. Its that "ratchety" turn, like each turn clicks into s gear, but it doesn't audibly click. Hope that helped.

It's a free-spinning scroll wheel but be prepared because it does have some recoil to it. For example, if you touch it gently it may sometimes scroll back upwards again. I used to think it was just mine being defective but I have read forums that say it's a common issue.

There are 3 intensities. I would not call them speeds. And I'm no completely sure if it vibrates or rotates, but all my friends say it looks like its vibrating.

that is not normal. You do have to wait for the motor to finish unlocking before opening but other than that I have never had it do what you describe. It has been running flawlessly for a year now. It is used two to three times a day.

Mine doesn't do that at all! I can press it and leave it without holding it. Sounds like something is wrong with your motor I would send it back!

Thanks so much for your reply. I contacted Livestrong about theirs and they said that the pad itself doesn't pivot but the part it is attached to is considered to pivot, or something like that. I suspect it's the same as this one. I've read that both are very comfortable and since they are both the same I was able to eliminate it from the deciding factors between the two machines.

I looked at mine and there is no way to reverse the motor. It spins on way and one way only. Why would you need to reverse it anyways?

No, oscillation (rotation of the fan) is controlled only manually, by pushing a button behind the blades. The remote only does on/off, speed, and timing.

No it does not oscillate on its own. You can manually move it some what but its made to stay in one fixed position.

If it's spinning non stop, either the gyro isn't set or the tail motor is running to fast or to slow. I've gotten tail motors with the wires soldered on opposite of what they are suppose to be . The white and blue were reversed and the tail blade runs clockwise. It's suppose to run counter clockwise, if your looking at the rear blade side!

I do NOT know why they requested I answer this question for you. I however have not had any motor trouble. Mine every once in a while will vibrate way to loud. But I don't run mine 247. I keep it off most days. It's on to allow the cat's or the kids that are over here to have a little fun & watch it but other than that I don't keep it on 247 it makes more noise than I prefer. I hope you are able to get your motor fixed.

Nope. You can move it up or down though. It's quite powerful and doesn't seem to matter that it doesn't oscillate.

Sounds like you have lost tail rotor thrust. If the tail rotor motor is dead or disconnected, you are will not have yaw control. This could also happen if their is something binding the tail rotor as well, like a tiny piece of hair. Those are some things to check. Also, mine did not arrive with a leveled swash plate which caused it to oscillate. Search youtube for swash plate leveling how-to videos. It is a really simple process with this heli. Basically at mid stick you want the swash plate to be level.
