New Holland Tedder

[farmeronecow]

Are New Holland Tedders any good? Or not worth the bother?

Are they not essentially a rebadged JF one?

 

[farmeronecow]

As far as I’m aware yes. Maybe I should rephrase, are New Holland/JF Tedders any good or not worth the bother?

Can’t see what would be wrong with it. Far too much brand snobbery regarding grass equipment. Use it sensibly and don’t drive like a tit, it’s all good stuff.

It really doesn’t bother me what colour it is. I was initially looking at second hand but found that a new New Holland is £700 more than a 20 year old Kuhn that is advertised locally, hence the question

We’ve done a good trade in the NH hay and forage kit since it started a couple of years ago. People are generally shocked (in a good way) at the price, but very pleased with the machines- go for it.

Just a JF out of the same Chinese factory as JF painted yellow

My first post wasn't meant in a negative way, just trying to identify it. I always understood that JF kit was good. As @Wellytrack commented, look after it, take time to set it up and don't drive like a madman. With a deal that good I think I'd go for it!

What's the approximate price on the small 20 foot size twin rotor rake? Look ideal for a baler.

No problem. I wasn’t having a dig, I just thought people may have more experience of JF than New Holland
