Extremely durable. Fell of my boat on the road and still works great. Max speed is just fast enough and it's good on battery but wouldn't recommend running for more then 4 hr at a time bc the battery will die.

We bought this Minn Kota Endura because our 20 yr old one quit running. We have a 16ft aluminum fishing boat, with our gear and Mercury motor on back with two adults pushed us through the water just fine.

I am using on an Old Town Saranac 146xt with a home made rear mount made with $12 dollars in parts and some scrap hardwood ply I had. I like the center rear position on the motor rather than the side mount I used to run with. Boat tracks easier and now that I've added the Minn Kota handle extension I can stay out all day on mid speeds with some bursts to move me around the lake here and again. Great motor with plenty of get up and go for a canoe! Easy to install and remove with each trip as the unit is well built but surprisingly light weight. Walmart online was an easy way to purchase and my items were available fast.

Bought this motor, put it on a 12 foot jon boat, it scoots two of us around the stock pond with no problems, except the motor does load going through thick, milfoil weeds. I see that Minn Kota makes a weedless blade, so I am going to order that and give it a whorl. Other than that, it is a light weight motor that packs a punch. The reason for the four star, is that milfoil weeds will blind the motor and cause a huge draw on the battery. If Minn Kota would sell a weedless propeller with this it would be a 5 star!

It is not often that a product outperforms my expectations, but that has been the case with this trolling motor. I bought it to use with rental boats at a local lake. The boats I use the motor with are Jon boats, about 12 foot, and extra wide. The motor has more than enough power. Speeds 1-3 cover the range I like for trolling. On setting 5, it moves the boat along faster than I thought it would - so I can cover distance if I need to. Likewise, the reverse speeds cover the necessary power range. I have used the motor it with 1-3 people in the boat, and performance has been great in all cases. I use a group 27 Everstart marine battery, and the Minn Kota Trolling Motor Power Center. (I highly recommend buying the power center and the upgraded weedless prop.) After about 5 hours on the lake, trolling and cruising nearly the whole time, I typically have 78 - 85% charge remaining. With the weedless prop, I have been able to move through heavy weeds. I only had a problem once in starting from a stop in some heavy growth. I just bought the motor this summer, so I cannot speak to long term reliability. It does have a quality feel to it, and has tolerated some banging around without issue. I can confidently recommend this motor.

The motor push the boat well pretty good power!

Great motor, great price. Much more than I expected.

Like the quality of this product. Light weight and well build.

Light weight, dependable and priced right.

My husband has only used it twice so far, but he's definitely satisfied with its performance.
