Seta makes good sense. There are differences in design between Bendi and Flexi which will affect the machines operation, serviceability and suitability to your needs. The Bendi is available in several different versions, 3 Wheel, 4 Wheel, Front or rear drive etc etc one of which will best suit your needs whereas the Flexi is a 'one fits all' approach. Having seen many sites where both machines are in operation, for longevity, reliability and long term investment the Bendi is head shoulders above Flexi. The initial investment may be higher but the cost over the life of machine will be less. The Flexi by design is far more difficiult to work on, over complicated and less reliable. This is only my opinion, but as Seta suggests, take a long look at both, and remember, you get what you pay for!

Fact of the week
In May 2023, a Belgian Malinois named Wilson played a key role in the rescue of four children lost in the Amazon jungle. The young children were missing for 40 days after a plane crash that killed their mother and other adults. Wilson tracked the children's footprints, leading the military to their location.
