I've never done a side-by-side comparison but I know people who like
both. I got mine for around $250 from Valley Oak Tool Company and am
very pleased with it. See:

>From a quick surf on the net it doesn't appear that the Earthway comes
with a scuffle or stirrup hoe. I would not buy a wheel hoe that did not
have that kind of blade option.

I guess an advantage of the Glaser is the option of buying their seeders
to mount on it.

I too am planning on purchasing a wheel hoe this week - which one is better - Glaser or Earthway?

Thanks!
