How long will it last

[SlabLapper4sure]

I ain't no fish catchin machine like some of you folks but I got this for a gift from someone and has any of you folks ever used one of this type/ How much wear can I expect before it blows up? Says it has a 2 yr. limited warranty.

Depends.....for wannabe, it will last a lifetime. For feelay maybe a year.

Been usin one for several years. Mine has straight blades. Those take a little getting used to.

i know I need to get me a better one than the one I have.

I use one just like that and it does ok. Need to find better blades though

I would say 1-2 year life with reasonable use. First one I had lasted about 2 years before motor fried, I'm on the 2nd one now. Decent quality, not real expensive, around $12 at Walmart.

Heat is the enemy of all electrics. As long as you don't fillet more than 15 big crappie without letting it cool off, that Black and Decker will last quite a few years.
