After using the Cole 12mx for two seasons I am overall really happy with it. It is simple to set up and plants seed well. I have used it to plant sweet corn and pumpkins. Here are a few of my likes and dislikes about the 12mx. I like the ease of setup, it sidedresses fertilizes while planting, and all grease fittings are easily accessible. I dislike that I must empty the hoppers by hand or turn the unit upside down, and that Cole seed plates are expensive. I can't plant as fast as I can with my 71's but that is not a big deal as I never plant more than an acre per day.
