I'm considering the purchase of either an A&B or Sundown subsoiler at my local MF dealer. The A&B unit weighs 138 pounds, with the Sundown at 115 pounds. The A&B costs about $350 with shipping and the Sundown goes for about $265.
I purchased a subsoiler at TSC (FarmForce by Tarter Gate) that lasted less than 5 minutes. One soccerball-sized rock in clay soil twisted it into a pretzel. The welds between the main shaft and the frame all popped open and the frame collapsed, which bent the spreader on my quick hitch. I'd rather that this doesn't happen again. TSC was very good about refunding my money after I declined a replacement with the same model.
Any experience with either the Sundown or A&B subsoilers?
