Help me choose a new mower.

Evening,
I think I need a bigger mower than my trusty PZ.

I was considering going new.

I sort of have it narrowed down to a JF 2405 or 2805
a Malone 800 or 900
or a Kuhn GMD24 or GMD240
all without conditioner.

Just for my own use so should last me a lifetime if minded.

Anyone any direct experience of any of these machines?
Anything to choose between them except the price?
Malone seems a good bit cheaper. Is there a good reason for that?

Thanks.
 
There are sone New Holland Discutter/Duradisc mowers left in stock in ireland, they are rebranded JF.

Was keen discount to launch them (i’m not involved in implements but i see them on yards when calling to dealers) perhaps worth a look as availability is what is going to be a problem this late in the year.
 
I was the same as you and ended up with a khun gmd 240 mainly down to a good price we got and possible better trade in value in the future can't fault it 5 plus years now.
 
Bought a Kuhn 3111 here, it's non conditioner. Use it for topping and mowing for bales. It's centre pivot and follows the ground well, not much more expensive than an 802. Their lift control thing means you lift and drop it with the spool so the links stay in the on place all the time. It's light on the tractor, folds back behind the tractor so you're not going to wrap it around a tree. Leaves a wide enough swarth but the contractor rows up.
