I don't think I ever did one on my K1 even. None of my kindles. K1, K3, basic button, Voyage, Oasis. I did do one on the PW1 I couldn't use because I gave it to my husband who has his own account and I wanted him to have a clean kindle.
I think now that I think of it, that PW1 did cause me to do a factory reset once before that. It was when they introduced the cloud thingy which made it work so badly that I about gave up. It didn't help though and I gave it to hubby then anyway. He only has a handful of books on his account so it doesn't cause him those issues.
I don't put every book I own on my kindles, but there are usually about 300 or so on it. I own over 3000. I also have a lot of collections. I think that is why the PW1 choked on me. Haven't had any issues with kindles after that one though.
