[QUOTE="egbert, post: 8141641, member: 9965"] I'm on drum mowers, due to multiple igneous issues. Cutting 120-150 acres a year. (some easier ground is farmed out to contractors) Whatever badges are on PZ now....they're junk due to vastly lowered spec, as far as I can see. Ne'er saw the end of a 2nd season with the latter ones- which is a great shame, as they used to go on and on. Tried a generic eastern European PZ rip off....less than a season before it broke in half. We spent a LOT on a Fella drum, but a lad really walloped it on a rock. And despite spending a LOT on repair, it's been chucked in the hedge in despair. Don't think it ever cut a whole season. We went to Samaz maybe 7-8 years ago, and are number 3 now. We still break them, but have found Weaving very straight, helpful, and sensible with spares. First make our spanner man has consistently been mending when summat breaks...... I am likely to try a small disc at some point, but endless 'you ought to use disc mowers like ours....but no we wouldn't want to cut your grass with it' stories have long deterred me. If you're on safe ground...i would've thought a modest disc machine would be a good bet, but Samaz are OK for what they are. [/QUOTE]
