That one i will never believe! Just not gonna happen!
I probably have more experience over more years with stirring devices than most. We have 13 stirring devices. Oldest was installed in 1967. Newest was installed in 2008. Some years we will have 14 or 15 running including bins rented from neighbors.
Old ones are junk. Spent almost $2000 on one this fall. New ones are fairly trouble free if not over-filled.
The two we have the least trouble with are the new DMCs. The ones we have the most trouble with are any of the Sukups. The original 42 year old DMC is fairly reliable, but get less use than some others.
If I have a choice, I'll never put another one in. Of any brand. We will be removing several in the near future since we have expanded our storage capacity at the main site with the continuous-flow dryer.
The one we installed in 2008 is on a rented farm that will never have a continuous-flow dryer. Otherwise it would not have been replaced. If at all possible, i would recommend a stand-alone dryer. | |
