Which in return will give you a smoother quicker cut. That's what worked for us! I think for Taycie, they work wonderful. Now, If I was cutting a dog with a super heavy double coat, I am not sure these would do the trick but they do have enough power to give Taycie a good cut.

I was looking at the ones you have and the package says Light Duty.. When I was researching clippers, They may not really be bad but just not enough power.. That might be worth looking into when you buy another pair, if you do.
Yes, the higher the SPM (strokes per minute) that they have the smoother the cut you will get. Now when it comes to motors, I'm not sure about the difference in a rotary motor or a whatever king of motor. I think that one keeps the clippers from heating up too fast.

This is what I have found on motors: Hair Clipper Motor Comparison: Magnetic Clippers vs. Pivot Clippers vs. Rotary Clippers

These ones are resonable prices and has the Rotary motor:
