RCBS vs Lyman Case Prep

Looking at the case prep machines from RCBS and Lyman. The boxes themselves seem pretty similar from what I can tell on YouTube. I know the Lyman comes with more accessories (S/L primer pocket tools - about an $80 difference).
My question is which has the stronger, more durable motor? I cant find much listed on either machine.

I have no experience with the Lyman; I have the RCBS case prep center. The RCBS case prep center is the first tool I remove from a drawer when I start loading.

I can only say I chose the Lyman Case Prep Center when choosing between the two, it made more sense for me with the extra tools.

Good luck and stay safe.

RCBS here, bought one and never needed another yet. Used it every weekend for about 6 months so far and hasn't skipped a beat.

I've had the Lyman for a couple years now. I use it constantly and it hasn't given me a lick of trouble yet.
