Subject: RE: Which 13x91 auger is better?


Here's a list of the augers we have.

1. 10x70' Farm King

2. 10x60 Hutchison

3. 8x60' Westfield

4. 8x60' Feterl

I would easily rate Farm King the best, they use a heavier tube, heavier flighting and a heavier under carriage. The Hutchison isn't quite as heavy as the Farm King and even though both of those augers have the standard single auger hopper the Farm King has 10-15% more capacity. We've been disapointed with our Westfield auger, we had to replace the flighting long before we did on the Feterl plus we've had to rebuild one gear box on it and it still has a ways to go before it's had a million bushels through it.

Since we had a dealer start selling Farm Kings about 30 miles away they have sold a ton of them and I have yet to hear anybody say they liked their other brands of augers better than the Farm King.
