I have had the Pacifica G400 for 2 years out on my patio & it is a nice wheel.
I bought it used & have not had problems with it. I like the nice wide table
& the ease of removing the splashpan. However, I have used the Brent one-
horse power CXC at school for over a year & you can honestly tell a difference
in power. Frankly, I do not throw 80-100 lbs of clay but even with 10 lbs,
you can feel a difference in the power. The Pacifica was a nice wheel to
start with & it will last quite a while, I'm sure BUT if I had the money to
buy a second wheel or need to replace the Pacificia, I'll probably get one
with a full horse-power & due to experience/exposure, probably go with a
Brent.
Good luck,
Vicki Katz

Lots of us on Clayart have Pacifica wheels.
They are among the most popular electric wheels and are
well-regarded.

I have a Pacific 800 and find it has as much power as the Brent CXC. The
pedal is much better in my opinion than the Brent.

I have a GT 800 and have been extremely happy with it for nearly 4 years.

I love my Pacifica 800 wheel. It is very smooth and the foot pedal allows
you to have complete control from the lowest to the hightst speeds. Very
quiete, too. Veronica
