With an operating turntable you multiply the operation possibilities, specially with the steamers,
I have had problems with the motor, because I found it very noisy.

I have an Atlas turntable and almost abandoned it because of the noise. Then I tried running at a reduced voltage ( 4.5 vs 12) and the noise problem was reduced significantly
