Comparing hydroseeders

I am looking to purchase my first hydroseeder. I am looking for something in the 500-750 gal range that won't break the bank. Would like to have mechanical agitation though. Any suggestions? Anybody ever use a turfmaker? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I have a Turfmaker 550. It is a good machine. If you have specific questions about it let me know.

Can I ask you how much did you pay it?
Which are the weak parts that need to be replaced often?
I'm thinking to buy the same unit but I live in Italy and there is not the official importer, so I fear to wait for replacements from Usa to Italy
thank you

It is a fairly simple machine. I have not had to do any maint on it. I would say that the only parts that i can you having to have imported would be the gears for the pump. The belts and bearings should be available at most mower shops.
