Posthole Digger Leinbach or Speeco PHD or are they same?

[wowwee]

My next decision is the Post Hole Digger. I will be using it on a Kubota B2320, in sandy loam, that has some rocks. Which is better quality, Leinbach or Speeco? Maybe they are actually from the same manufacturer. Was cosidering a Land Pride for this too, but then someone mentioned that his Land Pride PHD also had China stamped on it. Hold my nose and pick the one that stinks the least.

I looked up Speeco... I like the point on the auger. I have the Leinbach 7200 and the point of the auger is pretty small so it bounces around a little more then I like... I'm going to try and change out the tip to the longer screw type. Have you priced out either of them?

No China anywhere on my Land Pride PD35. Maybe it is only the small units. PD10 and PD15 units?

Yes, I do believe it was the PD15 that had China on it.
The speeco and Leinbach are about the same price, $540-$570.

I can't tell you if they are the same or which is better. I have a speeco that I have beat the tar out of and it has never given me any trouble.
