Customer Reviews for VEVOR Electric Trolling Motor, Transom Mounted Outboard Boat Motors 24V 86lbs Thrust, 8-Speed Electric Boat Engine w/ Battery Indicator, for Kayaks, Fishing Boats on Freshwater/Saltwater, 36-In Shaft

It worked very well on my 14.5 foot fishing boat. But on the way home from my first trip I secured the motor like I always do on the trailer and drove home about a 20 mile trip. I guess I must have hit a bump and it turned the trolling motor on. By the time I got home the motor was running and very hot, it even melted the prop. Needless to say it is completely burnt out now. It won't run at all. So to anyone else put a cutoff switch on it or pull the power plug. I towed my old motor for 16 years the same way and never had it turn on. I am sure this would not be covered under any warranty. So i got a good boat anchor.

Only 4 stars because I have not used it yet, just mounted on the boat. Seems to be very well built. I like what I see so far.

Price was very good

This is a great, solid built trolling motor. Only complaint and the reason for minus one star is the lowest speed is still too fast for trolling. I have it on a 14ft fiberglass Jon boat and it pushed it across the water with no problem.

Good price

Le moteur fonctionne bien, la poussée est bonne. Le principal problème est la longueur de l'arbre du moteur de 30 pouce il est trop court. Il serait difficile de l'utiliser sur un panneau arrière de plus de 17 pouces. Le bouton a ressort qui commande l'angle du moteur est très difficile d'accès en position relevé. L'indicateur de batterie restante est plus un gadget qu'un réel indicateur, il est basé sur le voltage d'une batterie au plomb .Le poids du moteur repose sur l'hélice quand le moteur est couché en raison de ses trois pâles. Le moteur semble collé a l'arbre principal car un surplus de colle débordé autour . Un bon achat malgré tout si votre embarcation possède un panneau arrière de moins de 17 pouces

On my way to the lake everything get loose and the engine wasnt working anymore. I had to open the cassing and play with the wire so it turn back on. I saw how much cheap was the component inside and im not sure if it will be able to finish it first season. Very disapointed, i should have bought a minn kota.

The engine isn’t sealed; after using it 4 times one summer I put it away, and the next summer it didn’t work, and when I opened it I realized it was so completely corroded that I had to throw it away.

No lo recomiendo compré un motor y se me rompió al segundo día pero es que me mandaron otro y otro que se me a roto y solo usado dos veces

Very disappointed – failed after only 2 uses I purchased this VEVOR trolling motor around June 2025 and have used it only twice. The first time was just a short test. During the second use, it worked normally at first, but after being stopped for about an hour, it completely stopped working. The battery is fine and the battery indicator still works. When turning the propeller by hand, there is a noticeable grinding noise and the propeller is very difficult to turn, which strongly suggests a mechanical/bearing failure. I contacted VEVOR technical support, but 4 days have passed without any response. A motor that fails after only two uses is extremely disappointing, and the lack of response from customer support makes the situation even worse. I hope VEVOR will finally respond and resolve this issue. At this point, I cannot recommend this product. https://youtube.com/shorts/ytlTjXbgw80
