Seems like rotovac quality control has gone down on them 360's, or maybe there just using cheaper motors to cut down on cost, it seems there is always someone selling one
Kinda makes ya wonder why
However, I bought one new from them back in 2010 and used it for like 5 years and never had a problem with it, I did finally sell it off but not because there was anything wrong with it, I simply wasn't using it anymore and wanted an OP machine so away it went
