Has anyone ever used one, I have seen one that looks very tidy and good value. Do they spread well, are they prone to any particular problems. Can you get parts. Thanks

Hi do you still have your dowdeswell multispreader I have just bought one looking for pictures of the adjustable spread flap on the door if possible thanksHutton legg ltd now have the rights for the dowdswell multispread. They still make them to order, so I would imagine you would go to them for parts.

I've only bought one yesterday, borrowed my cousin's one a few times, got on well with it, had thought of a west but spreads on the wrong side for my fields.
Mine is on 16.5 85 24 with tractor grips, great on slopes as they dig in and grip, and not slide like normal muckspreader wheels. Mine was bought for slop, when the pit gets full, the muck from the cubicles is scraped into the midden, a bit of box muck, and waste silage is thrown in, it handles that stuff very well. I kept my old dowdswell rotaspreader for the strawy muck from under the heifers, looks terrible but does the job. Unfortunately one of the tyres went bang the other day, and took the wheel out too. I'm finding it difficult to justify £250 for a wheel and tyre for a machine that's not worth any moreGood spreaders on slop not so good on solid muck , the tyres are a problem i think you can only get Russion tyres so we changed the wheels .
