Just Excellent - and good value.
I love these - they're just so positive when switching. A bit more complicated to fit than surface side-mounted motors but the effort is well worth it because they are invisible and perform so much better. They work just as well with Hornby or Peco points (especially important with the latter because they have stronger spring latches). In the manual they suggest cutting a slot to incorporate the moving rod - far easier to just drill a hole (6-8mm). Once the point is installed the hole can hardly be seen. Good value too.

Cheap and reliable
I’ve around 22 points on my layout so I went for these motors and used the gaugemaster frog juices for frog polarity which work better than the seep motor with polarity switch built in,powered by 2 DCCconcepts 8 output decoder’s with built in CDU for each output 👍🏻Works a treat

Effective, but fiddly and lacking installation screws
Seep point motors have been around for decades, for the simple reason that they work very effectively - once you've gone through the hassle of installation. Do remember that these prefer a beefy 16 volt, 2 amp supply to throw properly. Lower voltages simply won't work on a point with typical centre-springing. Little has been done to improve the product over the years, other than changed packaging. No screw terminals, so soldering to slim metal pads is required. No installtion screws are provided and no indication is given about what sizes and screw head type(s) are recommended. There's also no real guidance as to how best to install the motors. It's all a bit 1960s. If you haven't installed one before, check out YouTube where there are several helpful videos. These are good, cost-effective point motors, but you do need patience, the right tools and some skill to get them installed and working correctly.

Why pay more?
Great little motors. This is old tech but well tested and understood. If you have a lot of points then this might be the most affordable method available. If you do not need an on board switch to change the polarity of the frog on electro frog points, then these are perfect. I switch the frogs elsewhere so these motors make good sense. They won’t last forever and they are not the easiest to fit but there are 101 YouTube videoes to help with that!
