These are very spendy. 6-7k or more.

Does anyone have experience with Bestco implements out of Oregon? 1/2 the price, shipped free and dry and some assembly required.

I've made good use of my Bestco 48" HD flail with the hammers and it absolutely does what it's supposed to do. Only issue were the crap belts it came with that burned up and started melting after my 3rd use despite checking maintaining tension. Hit napa for a set of Kevlar belts and have not readjusted in over 2 years. It's generally used mostly to cut heavy brush and does a nice job with 2" plus stuff.. I did a local pickup rather than ship and they run a legit facility with actual employees...

I have a Betsco 72" finish mower that I have used and abused (like using it to cut brush, not finished lawn). It has held up unbelievably well!
I was also looking at their flails, but was hesitant. Until my neighbor got one. He beats the heck out of it and it's still going strong after a few years.
