This motor runs well and is noisier than the original motor, in In my setup it isn't annoyingly loud as others have found. It spins faster than the original motor, so more pellets are fed into the hopper than the original motor. This forces us to cycle on and off because it's getting too hot in our tiny house and we're burning the pellets too quickly, even with the stove running at the slowest feed speed. If we had an oven wired to a thermostat it probably wouldn't be a problem.
