Spin Tech Deer Feeder - Any good?

[rkmontana]

Hello - been looking for a good deer feeder - and kind of like the idea of getting something that won't rust and will never need re-painted, etc.

Was wondering if any of you have any experiance with Spin Tech feeders? Wal-Mart.com has a 400lb capacity one on all galvanized for $389 that I am thinking about.....

Thoughts and advice I would love to hear. Thanks!

I have had a Spin Tech Feeder Motor (not the feeder) for two years with no problems.

The 12v may be ok, but I've had nothing but problems from the 6v. In fact, it flat out doesn't work. Yes, it goes up and down, but it does not prevent coons from getting to it. I've tried adjusting it to get it to work, but no luck. Next year I'm going to use The Eliminator.

Looks kinda flimsy but would have to see one up close.

The 12volt is what I have. But I also have a cage around it for coons. With it being up from the spring wind won't blow it out and game bumping the legs can't bump it out. Its not my favorite motor and timer. This is my new favorite motor and timer for coons, wind, rain, bumping the legs or whatever, is the Big Game Deluxe Feeder Kit, 12volt and its "Bullet Proof". No cage needed!!!
