Brand new Technics SL-1210GR platter wobble ... disappointed!

I owned the Pro-Ject RPM 5.1 turntable. It was a beautiful table.

But the arm would bounce like a rubber ball at the slightest of foot movements. The ’rubber band’ belt would stretch from heat and friction on the pulley and God forbid if you didn’t have a Pro-Ject speed box...I ended up selling it.

Direct drive turntables have the best wow and flutter specs in the industry. Unlike some people have just mentioned that is certainly not their problem. Having no suspension and an oscillating magnetic device right below a very sensitive magnetic vibration measuring device are certainly problems that might result in inferior performance not wow and flutter or "cogging" as was previously mentioned.  

I hope technics will take note of the issues reported here.

Too many backyard mechanics trying to make it sound like the turntable
is a poor design.  To the naysayers, you really don't know what you are talking about.  I find the direct drive to have a great jump factor, but if you would rather use a cheap Rega or expensive one with a glass platter that rings, an outdated arm and a table that weighs almost nothing, then who am I to say? My SL1200G weighs 40 pounds,I can jump in front of it while playing (old house with suspended floors) records with zero skips.  The arm once adjusted, stays that way unlike the unipivot toy that VPI uses (I owned a Prime for 2 years). 

As far as looks go, I like it better than the Prime with a lot of bling but terrible isolation.

I bought a 1200G and tried it with 3 different cartridges (Ortofon Quintet Black, Denon 103R, Signet TK7Ea). I, and a friend, preferred the sound of the VPI Prime (using the same cartridges with and without the dual pivot). And as I mentioned in a previous post, the platter wobbled (more so than the SL-1200 MkII I have). I returned it.
