My Westendorf

Customer Testimonials

I bought the brush grabber (Brush Crusher™) things and love 'em.

Roy Huntington - Joplin, MO

I have used the Brush Crusher to pile trees as high as the loader will go.  I no longer have to cut up trees to get them to the burn pile, I just pick up the whole tree and stack it for burning.  When I first got the attachment, I had trouble understanding how to work the Brush Crusher.  They sent out a man to set it up and show me how to work it.  Name any other company that will do that for one person who bought a small item as a Brush Crusher. The Brush Crusher has saved me dozens of chain saw chains and an aching back.

I had a few moments and thought I would take some time to let you know that we have been VERY pleased with the performance of our Westendorf canopy to date. I have to admit, when it first went on the tractor I had some serious concerns; but, here it is almost three months later, over hay fields, primary tillage, and just downright hot Central Michigan weather, and the Cool Cap™ has earned its stripes and my respect. Yes, I am a proud owner of a Cool Cap™ and am pleased to be seen on the tractor in the field sporting it. I feel that we will be getting many good years of service from our Cool Cap™, and we made the correct decision regarding the purchase of your product.

I am 71 years old and over the years I have owned 24 Westendorf running gears and used them for gravity wagons and hay racks. They are built like the Rock of Gibraltar--real heavy duty construction. They are the only loaders I buy.

Joe Stoll - Primghar, IA

I owned a weld shop, and I was continuously fixing and repairing loaders. When I bought myself a loader, I was determined it was going to be a Westendorf loader. Nobody else had one like it. Whenever they saw my loader, they would say, 'That's the stoutest loader I've ever seen!' It was built stronger, and I never had any trouble with it.
What really convinced me of the loader's strength is in the following story:
I had a fire break out in the barn, over 2,000 gallons of gasoline started on fire. I had my tractor and loader parked in the barn. The fire melted the tires right off the tractor, melted the tractor's hood and busted up the cab. The loader was scorched, the decals and hoses had melted off, but I wasn't sure about the loader's condition so I called my local Westendorf dealer to come out and take a look. He told me that loader had an internal I-Beam or double wall construction and the loader wasn't damaged. I couldn't believe it didn't split the loader's frame. Nothing warped, no welds were broken, the bucket was still in excellent condition. I couldn't believe the loader wasn't hurt - I took it up the road to a body shop, had it sand blasted, repainted, reinstalled the hoses and sold it.
That was a good loader. I had a dozer blade, bucket and pallet fork. Even after 10 years I never had to sharpen the bucket's blade. I leveled dirt, pushed out trees and sprouts, the blade stayed sharp. I really like the easy hook up system. I could sit in the tractor seat and see what I was working with. The low-profile allowed me to see to align the units. All I had to do was back up, hook on to the other attachment and I was back to work.
My Westendorf loader was a really fine outfit - that's for sure. If I were to go back into farming again, I definitely wouldn't buy anything but a Westendorf.

A Man's Two Best Friends... His Westendorf and His Dog I really like the 340 loader; it's a very powerful loader, and it's made very well.  This loader really looks good on the tractor, like it's been molded to fit; you can see really well because of this.  I especially like the heavy-duty bucket and how easy the loader is to take on and off the tractor.  I've used it for everything around the farm and have not had any problems.  I'm a satisfied customer.

Mike Gfeller - Junction City, KS

Custom Contour I recently purchased a New Holland TS115A tractor with a Custom Contour 340 Loader.  This loader is even better than my previous Westendorf loader I had.

John Neuman - Baraboo, WI

I thought I would send you some pictures of the Brush Crusher I bought from you. I clear cut about a 1/2 acre of cedar trees that all were about 35 ft tall. I clear cut them off of a native prairie that I own. The implement worked extremely well and I am very pleased with it. The product was exactly what was promised.

I bought a Snap-Attach for my Allis-Chalmer 460 loader, bucket, spear, plus manure forks at the 2005 National Farm Show in Louisville, KY.  In 2006 I bought the FL-48 forklift at the National Farm Show.  I set up my loader to the Snap-Attach system, and it works great!  I go from moving round bales to moving pallets to scooping manure in just seconds!

Brian Young - Bedford, KY

I like everything about my TA-28 loader - It's the best.  I clear a lot of manure, as I have a lot of cattle.  I use it to haul wood and handle brush.  It's got good lift height (over 13') and works great for stacking bales.  I couldn't get along without it!  I really like the quick-tach bucket teeth.  They work really good for scooping manure, an you were the only company I found that had a quick-tack style so the teeth don't need to be bolted on.  When I want them off they're off and when I want them on, they're on in just a few minutes.  That's quite a patent and loader you have.

Chester Speer - Maywood, MO

I'm very happy with the Cool Cap and the simple and heavy duty hardware.  What a difference a little shade makes.

Adolf Siegl - Palmyra, NE

I love the loader and have not found another with the ease of use in connecting and dis-connecting nor the stability. You have a great product and I would like to be on a catalog mailing list.
