Never had any problems with mine. The dust cover (hard plastic hinged lid) is a plus that many newer models do not come with.

Sound is clean, wow and flutter are inaudible, the rumble that plagued early belt drive turntables has been engineered out. I've been using mine for over six years with no problems.
