[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 150949, member: 3373"] Buying used is always "Buyer Beware" but it it runs what can go wrong? New blades perhaps, about $35-$40. Even replacing the battery and you are still less than a new one. Mine has reverse but not having it isn't a deal-breaker to me. Probably use reverse more in an enclosed house than portable. At this time I wouldn't go back to gas-powered. I did find last winter that in about 25-30 inches of ice my battery was done at about 35 holes. For me I like the light-weiight and simple operation. No pull rope to start and getting mad when it won't start. I do know that some fishermen who don't mind digging more holes than I don't like the limitation of a dead battery and batteries are a little expensive to carry 2 for me. Seems like a fair price to me. [/QUOTE]
