Interesting source of goodies

[varmint]

I just learned of an interesting Chinese seller of many things. Here's a link to something that might interest us tractor users. I have no experience with them, and certainly no financial interest, but I was told by my brother in law that some of the stuff he's gotten from them was good quality. Caveat emptor?

Yep, lots of their stuff is sold on Amazon, probably good for light use but too many reviews say it doesn’t hold up so I haven’t bought any of their stuff so far.

Vevor seems to be selling all sorts of stuff. I bought a sausage stuffer sold by Vevor. All stainless, very nice.

You know its quality because they show you pictures of the welding rod.

I bought one of their full-back versions off Amazon a while back (last summer). I used it to replace the entire back of my homemade dirt bucket. If I remember correctly, I got the latch brackets from someone else. I made the tractor side plates for the latch brackets myself. It works for me. I converted over to SSQA so I could get a grapple and forks.

When I got my chipper delivered, I tried to use the forks to load it into my pickup to get it to the barn. The ole Kenbota could lift the 825lb chipper crate, but it didn't have enough muscle to roll back. I ended up assembling the chipper down front just enough to hook it up to the Tractor's 3ph and get it back to the barn. That was the most I've ever tried to lift with the Kenbota so it was a good test. I've never had a problem working the small grapple and what it can carry. Not bad for a 10hp tractor.

Yeah, the photo of the welding rod took me by surprise. Do they use three whole rods, you suppose?

I was wondering about thier quality too as I was looking at buying a
water distiller from them as well to distill my well water for drinking and cooking.

I will have to look at it some more.

I guess alot "depends"..... IN blacksmithing world ""some"" of their anvils have voids filled with bondo before painting.... But generally in base, not on working surfaces....

I bought a ballast box from them a year and some ago, $255, best price I found on one. When I got it, noticed the bracket for attaching the top link was welded on crooked, so the top link pin has to go in at an angle. They gave me $50 refund for that.

I have bought a skid steer mounting plate and a tractor seat. I have been pleased with both purchases.

I get there adds on FB for tools. During BF they had air jacks for 50% off. Naturally I ordered one just to see. I used it for my tractor the other day to lift the front end off the ground so I could service it. Worked great. Things to keep in mind. Its something I won't use often. Ill store it in my garage. My expectation is it should provide many years of service. So we shall see.

It was made on a Monday.

I bought a Chinese diesel heater through them. It was a good product. Think I got it on amazon.

 

[fruitcakesa]

My concern with chinese based companies as not so much product quality but scam companies.
I once ordered knowingly [sometimes they disguise the company location] from a chinese company and never received the item.
I have since ordered once more from a chinese outfit and did receive the item.
50% chance of scam.
Really a case of buyer beware

I've never tried any of their products and they may be a good buy but I don't see how they can offer free shipping on something as heavy as an SSQA plate for $168.

Whats not to trust in a Chinese company. Id want to run a geiger counter over that metal.

Oh sure, why not? Oct 2020 I bought a 1/4" SSQI plate from Titan Attachments. $105 plus tax, free shipping.

Although now, Titan got the same plate going for $190.

Well yeh, about right...Titan's SSQI plate is near double the cost I paid for it.

Just found their site loooking for a PTO Shaft. Came here to research reviews. Anyone bought one of their PTO's? About half of one from TSC. I will be using on my Mahindra 38hp with 6 foot shredder.
