How durable is your flex 3401

I was planning on gettin a back up plate when I finally place my flex order. What is the life expectancy of the backing plates when used on a regular basis (ie 3-5 days a week)?

Mine is fine. Works like a champ. However the flex rotary is starting to make some noise.
 
Hey tdekany, did you check the gears and add some grease? I had the same problem with my snap on. The grease did the trick.
