Leinbach vs. Tractor Supply PHD

LSmith · Apr 13, 2004

OK, I'm ready to buy a PHD. I priced the Leinbach locally and came up with $450 for the unit with a 9" auger. The TSC unit is $349 plus $99 for a 9" auger. Basically the same price. Any comments on the quality and durability of one vs. the other?

Thanks.

You may have purchased your PHD by this time but I'll post this anyway. I have the Leinbach and am very pleased with it. I bought it for about $350 locally. I have used it to put in 400 fence posts for a horse pasture and 6x6 posts for a run-in shed. There is just enough wobble to make the 6x6's a tight fit but they go in. I've got about 800 more fence posts to go for the next pasture and some more 6x6's for a pole barn. Good luck in your search.

I really wish other manufacturers would get a clue and make product
manuals available electronically. One good example of this is Worksaver
which does so for both operators and parts manuals.
