No, those are technically "throw aways". I work on the home to Commercial line of KitchenAid brand machines. They're bult well and still made here in the USA. Sadly too many times I get the leftovers of what happens after an owner has watched a YouTube video, then because they don't have the proper tools (good snap ring pliers, electronic tachometer, good spring hooks with good reach, good basic hand tools and basic mechanical and electrical knowledge and skills,) and says "oh I can do that". Then I get the email or phone call "can you fix this?" And I get a machine with parts missing, broken, totally out of whack, etc. So far, I've not had one I can't fix LOL. Recently I've had a few that IMO were just not worth the $$$ to repair because the amount of $$$ involved in parts did not equate to a value for them. But those are pretty rare.
