[QUOTE="MrBilly, post: 18083, member: 87"] I bought one several months ago and am delighted with it and will add more. There is very little waste. Michigan study showed cone feeders waste about 3.4 % compared to traditional ring feeders which as I recall were in the 6% range. The one we have is made, like a tank, with very heavy gauge steel, the bottom of the cone is lifted above the ground and the bottom of the ring has a 1/8 inche plate steel skirt to prevent the hay from coming out onto the ground. It should hold up very nicely. I have seen others where the bottom of the cone actually sits on the ground. Our's was made by J and L and is called a haysaver; they are in Pa. It was quite expensive ;-) due to the cost of shipping, but we bought with others to reduce it - the cost was $725 total. Worth every cent. More on the way. :lol: [/QUOTE]
