I've had my 128 since Feb. of 86 and have had NO problems at all with it.
I started with a C-64 too.  I use ALL 3 modes of my machine too EXTENSIVELY.
If anything, a 128 is MORE reliable than a 64 because for one thing it has
a MUCH larger power supply.  My 1571 drive has been totally reliable too.
And the new 1581 drive has a power supply of its own to make IT more reliable
too.  Now some of the early C-128D's had a problem with the disc drive but
that problem was corrected in short order during production so you shouldn't
have to worry about that now.  Whoever told you all this bull was telling you
JUST that ------- BULL.
