Mytee has some breakage and quality issues early on. Those have been remedied a long tome ago.

Ive had my drimaster 2 since 2009, and ive only had one issue with the metal lips because I dropped it but the solution after many times afterward of them falling off was take completely apart and clean thoroughly, I also bought many extra. I take the tool apart once a year to clean inspect and possibly replace the lips. Ive only had to replace the lips once since 2009
If memory serves, our local HM rep Ollie (whom I adore and still miss, he now does double-decker bus sales) came in with the DM3 right before it hit the market and said HM was honoring a credit toward the price of a new DM3 for anyone who had a DM2 that was bought within a certain time frame.
I'm not sure if we didn't do a good job getting that message across to our local guys, or if your tool fell outside of that window.
I've not seen any repair problems with the DM3 as far as breakdowns of the head or fins (except one, and that was an abuse situation where the whole head had to be replaced). The biggest "repair" is that the set screw on the knob gets loose and can cause leaking from the knob. A quick tightening of the stem and nut underneath that knob fixes the leak 99.9% of the time.
