Has anyone used the above, is it a compromise on both or a really good idea for the smaller farm[emoji106].

Basically where I work we have 200 cows on cubicles with 50 on loose housing and then 130 followers up the road on loose housing.

Would be a lot easier to do the feeding, drop the box off load bales in then carry on bedding in one trip rather than two.

Any thoughts

They are not a compromise from a feed mixing perspective. The addition of a blower is unrelated to the mixing in the tub. If there is any compromise it’s the straw distribution element but only sometimes. I think most manufacturers of these hybrid models have sold some units over here, so user comments should pop up shortly
