IHC engines, good or bad quality?

I've got an IHC 4-6-2 Premier Pacfic... My only complaints about it is that it doesn't pull many cars at a time (I got up to 15 and it started to slip - compared to some Athearns I had that pulled 15 no problem).... But the one that drives me nuts is the starting/stopping of the loco - the low speed doesn't seem to exist. If I slow the thing down, at least with my DC power pack, it seems that if you're coming down from a speed of 5...then 4...then 3... then 2... then 0. There's a whole speed range missing. And then the rolling stock all slam into eachother and inevitably one of them uncouples. Same thing starting up, really jerky.
