Around here the popular one now is o'mara from Lyons Nebraska. Not a real fan of tube feeders due to the fact if a nipped gets stuck or jammed up with feed and floods the feeder (especially weaned pigs) you end up having to clean the bottom of the tube out which gets to be a pain. If you raise feeders it probably wouldn't be much of a problem.
Personally the old high slat bolt together dry feeders have been the best feeders I've been around as far as pig performance and functionality.jmo.
We put O'Mara feeders in an old partial slat building and the feed efficiency lead us to switch out the rest of the dry feeders within a year.
