In the market for a 30ft Tedder atm what do folk get on with best krone and class dealers aren’t far away Kuhn and malone wouldn’t be that much further has Massey/Fent started making Lely ones again. Thanks

Got a Malone 870 last year and am pleased with it so far. It has the hooked tines like the Lely Lotus 600 it replaced that really tear the grass apart and is a very well built strong tedder. I like the fact the tines are bolted solid directly to the tine arm, whereas the Lely has a spring latch arrangement to adjust tine position when tedding around field boundary's. On my Lely these got worn and sloppy with springs and pins breaking. The Malone also has hydraulic stabilisers that are very good and comes with a spare wheel which is very handy with the punctures we get here.

Just to throw something else out there, have you thought about Kubota, they do a nice 30ft one?
TE8590, they're easy to use and well priced.
