Has anyone got a soft hands bale grab from bucket warehouse? It looks pretty strong and seems very good value.

Looks identical to one I bought from TRW in Devon 4-5 years ago as there were very few budget models in the UK at th time, just the premium brands at twice the price.

Chinese engineering... Mine was put together reasonably well, tidy welding and good bracing. Shocking paintwork!! Bushes and pivots are not high quality and need LOTS of grease, but easily done.
 
We bought 2 of these style grabs from a place in scotland. Started using one, which bent both the arms after about 200 bales. A bit of welding and reinforcing sorted that out. Then one of the pivot pins snapped in half moving bales of straw last year.

Ended up selling the second grab because of the hassle with the first one.

They are made in china and are cheap for a reason.
