    Lemken, Kuhn, Amazone etc are all good.
    I don't really know of any bad ones.

    IF you're just looking at a powerharrow for reseeding, ignore the rest of this post.
    But if it's just for reseeding look at a stitcher... Much better job...if ground is suitable....Vredo,Atchison,Moore,etc

    Can I ask the same question another way, what are your recommendations for re seeding reclaimed land maximum 8" of soil with a similar tractor

    Well i have both ploughed to reseed then power harrowed and power harrowed only to reseed.. I got great results each time. ploughing suits me for drainage purposes but i have to pick stones.. I always spray off the field first then till.. I usually give three runs of power harrow. lite run first then i lower it a bit etc. there is a time saving factor as well. the burning off of the field is crucial.

    So are you saying the Lely power harrow yields the best results
