Easily worth the $300 or so for a motor that draws <1/2 the current and has proper bearings
If by proper bearings you mean ball or roller, consider this.
None of the electrical motors in your house or MH have ball or roller bearings. They are all bushings. IE furnace, blender, microwave blower, attic fan, etc. They make too much noise for an environment occupied by people.
I made that mistake many years ago on a furnace blower motor.
