Intermittent
12V 55 lbs 30 inch
On the second time using the motor It intermittently would not engage the prop, the battery gauge was lit up but when you turned the handle nothing would happen. I would have to pull the handle out and in a few times to get it to work and that happened three or four times. But my biggest issue is with the customer service, after taking a number of days to get back to me on the issue They told me they could give me $69 and keep the motor which of course does not help me at all, I refuse and told them I'm on a day full refund and then after another day or two they said that they give me $129 and keep the motor which again is useless to me. In the last email that I got even though I was still wanting a full refund they said they would send me a replacement so at this point I was sick and tired of going back and forth and I agreed to the replacement. It's quite obvious what they're doing with trying to get you to take the cheapest possible option for them. In the future I will be quite weary of buying items from them based on that customer service.

Garbage quality
12V 55 lbs 30 inch
When the extendable handle breaks off, you’ll need to superglue it. At the beginning of the 2nd summer, I find out 4 of my 7 gears don’t work. Cheap Chinesium - you get what you pay for

Don't buy this motor
24V 86 lbs 36 inch
Used this motor twice. On the second usage it smoked, stopped functioning, and left me stuck in the middle of a lake. Was within the return window so tried to return it but have been given the runaround for over a week. Today instead of the return authorization I requested I received instructions on how to open the motor and tape up wires. Should the customer be asked to repair a product they just received that has failed during normal use within the return window? Tried to call them today but after being on hold for 10 minutes it just disconnects. Used the chat function on the website to reach out to customer service and they said I will be contacted by the “relevant department” but refused to tell me what department that will be. Save yourself the headache and spend a bit more to get a quality product.

Mai ricevuto
24V 86 lbs 36 inch
Ho ordinato il fuoribordo il 9 luglio 2025.
Non è mai stato spedito,il 27 luglio sono stato rimborsato per intero, ma sono comunque rimasto insoddisfatto perché il motore mi serviva durante le vacanze estive.

Herr
24V 86 lbs 36 inch
Peis/Leistung grundsätzlich: Prima! Aber qualitativ eine Katastrophe bisher. Hatte 2 Motoren bestellt. Bei einem sind die LEDs defekt, beim zweiten ging die Schaltung der Gänge nach kurzem Betrieb direkt kaputt. Totalschaden für mich - und der Kundenservice hat sich nicht zurückgemeldet trotz mehrfacher Reklamationen. Ich würde dringend vom Kauf auf dieser Plattform abraten;-((((((

The shaft should be minimum 54 inch or longer.The handle should be swivel handle so we can steering from different levels.
Price and quality needs room for improvements.

Absolute junk
12V 55 lbs 30 inch
I would give it NO STARS if I could. Bought this 55lb thrust motor for my 10foot Jon boat. I didn’t get to use it until after the 30 day return window had closed. First time out to test it, it worked “okay” but it wasn’t much improvement over my 30lb Minn Kota. Makes a whining noise on speed 4. VIbrates on speed 5. But seemed “usable” especially considering I can’t return it now. Second time out I noticed the bottom cable nut had come loose. Then it started acting up intermittently. It would work for a bit and then stop working. Had to extend/collapse the handle a few times and was sometimes able to get it to go. Then suddenly it wouldn’t go above speed 2 for a while, but then started working again but intermittently. THIS MOTOR IS VERY FLAKY AND FLAT OUT UNRELIABLE. I don’t trust it at all. I regret this purchase and would really appreciate a full refund.
