Anyone buy anything from Omni-MFG?

[connor77]

I'm in need of adding some weight to the rear of my BX2660 and stumbled upon this outfit called Omni-MFG. They sell a few toys for sub/compacts and I wondered if anyone has done any business with them and what their quality is like. They don't seem to have either an email address or phone number to field questions from potential consumers. They do also sell their stuff on Ebay for what it's worth.
I'm considering the 3pt combo hitch and also the counter weight rack so that I can do some FEL work. Seems like a fairly straightforward setup.
Just wondered if anyone has made any purchases with them and, if so, whether they were happy with the product they bought.
Link to their site (if I did it correctly) is below....

Nice pictures, but no contact info is a big red flag- that part of the web site isn't even done.

i'd stay away, even if they are legit, too new. If we knew where they were a tbn'er could check them out..

I ordered the "BX Special" 3-pt trailer hitch a few weeks ago - in Oct. I placed the order on eBay and it arrived within 2-3 days

Combo Hitch Accessories - OMNI Mfg

It is very well made, and was packaged well. And I considered the price reasonable. There was nothing suspicious or questionable about the transaction.

I did search TBN before I ordered and didn't find any negative comments (thought I found some positive ones, but can't remember)

I would buy from them again....

Thanks NuBota. Did you consider the Combo hitch - which appears a little beefier - or were you thinking this was too big? From looking at the pictures on their website the actual size only appears slightly smaller between the combo hitch and the one made specifically for the BX.

It would be nice to be able to reach them somehow and let them know that they'd probably get more business if they updated their site with contact info. I don't disagree that it reduces people's confidence in doing business with them. Even on Ebay there is no way to ask them a question. Too bad....

Actually, I did consider the combo hitch, but went for the BX version mainly because it was cheaper. My main application is to tow a 4x8 utility trailer, 1000# payload, I use as a yard cart. I wasn't sure if I wanted the 3 pt. combo, or something for the drawbar, so I ordered the BXpanded hitch receiver as well - so the < $100 was my lame justification for ordering both. I was in a hurry to get it rigged up for a hay ride on Halloween and I wanted to see which setup seemed safest.

The BX version is actually very sturdy - I used it for the hay ride and have hauled heavy loads with it already. I have no doubt it is stout enough to handle anything that the tractor is able to handle.

I understand the concern about the site lacking contact info - but with eBay, you are able to email the seller with questions. I am very careful when ordering online and feel I have a pretty good instinct about potential scams. Omni's site was well designed, better than many I have ordered things from, and the eBay feedback rating was good, so I considered it relatively low risk - and it was....

To anyone that may be interested in contacting Omni-MFG I stumbled across the email address and phone number for this company on Ebay (bottom of one of his listings). I spoke to Rock Hefti today who is the owner I believe and he answered all of my questions and is shipping me a combo hitch and weight rack. He also is correcting the contact info on his website.




omnimfg@tds.net and the shop phone number is 218-831-7185
