I bought two edge extenders to use on my Kubota BX23S. I did not realize that I also needed two 3 inch edge tamers. I will order the edge tamers soon
I have bought several products from R2 and have always been impressed with the quality of the products. Have been happy with the quick shipping and quality of their products. Great company to deal with.
Have been using Edge Tamers/Edge Extenders for a number of years on my Red Tractor. The driveway is 1.4 miles with an 'unimproved' surface. Tamers are perfect for removing snow/moving gravel. My wife has a very large garden (18,000 sq ft) and occasionally buys wood chips and compost by the truck load. Edge Tamers to the rescue. Use and abuse the Extenders to remove down/cut up trees. R2 has quality products and great customer service.
I purchased the 4" Edge Tamer two years ago for snow removal. We finally had enough snow this season to use this product. I installed them on my JD 2025 in a matter of minutes. I have a Quarry cut stone main drive and base stone (tennis ball size and smaller) that has not been finished with a cover gravel around my barn. I had to clear 10-12" of snow. I mostly used the bucket in float mode and easily cleaned the driveway and the area around the barn. The Edge Tamer easily rode up and over my grass with no damage. It left about 3/4 to 1" of snow which quickly melted away. We received another 3-4" and I easily cleared this. On the second use I noticed on of the pads was cracked. I called r2manufacturing and no answer, I did not leave a message. Later that evening they called me back! Impressive! I explained what happened and that I was using the Tamer on larger base rock. It was explained that I was supposed to take the plastic off and use it like that for this type of surface. So in other words this was my fault (did not read directions) which I agree. I think when I get my surface area finished off with cover stone, I will be able to use the plastic if I wish. The product is very well built! Without hesitation I was told a new pad and hardware was on it's way for free. It arrived three days later!! I look forward to using this product again as all I basically did was drive the tractor. I did not dig into any of my uneven areas of grass. I highly recommend this product. When the snow melts I will not have to pick up or rake the rock out of my grass because the bucket rides just above the stone. It did pick some rock, but that's because my drive is not flat yet. I will also be trying it out on a cement drive and several blacktop drives with the pads. Very impressed with the company and the product!
Very good quality welding and materials. VERY HAPPY to have chosen an American made product.
Build-to-order was still reasonably quick to my door. Put them on this morning as we just got 10" of snow last night. PERFECT! Nice clean float on my gravel drive without cutting into the rock.
These are attached to my snow blower by the way. We receive about 20' of the snow every year and this makes starting a cut without the worry of flinging rock. Can't say thanks enough

Vevor is $100 less with their Edge Extender. Is the quality of your product substantially better?
Used yesterday for the first time. Worked great! Everything was a perfect fit. Would definitely recommend these. Also buy American from R2 over the cheaper Chinese products with hand tighteners!
It was so easy to visit with one of the brothers that I was wondering if this was real. When he called me back with more info I'm like nobody treats their customer this way. So it was excellent service, great communication and appears to be exactly what I wanted. Thank you for a great experience that puts faith back in small businesses.
The service was great had my order in 3 days in time to use moving snow worked like they are supposed to. Would recommend products and company that's why I gave them 5stars.
Very pleased with the ordering and mailing process. Product quality and ease of installation was great. Hasn’t snowed yet so don’t know how they work. Thanks
I was easily able to contact the owners about my order and they were very helpful.
Great product must have for snow removal with bucket on stone or grass.Fast shipping.
Your service was great! Delivery was better than expected and I will be telling friend and family about this experience. Thank you,

Trash tamer worked great, I have a long driveway, so being able to use my Kubota to lift and carry the recycling bin out to the end of the driveway made it an easier job at a low cost.
Have not used the recent purchase yet, but I’ve been using the tamers that I purchased several years ago. Very satisfied with your product and the ease of purchase. Would highly recommend.
Product came in a timely manner, installation was easy. The red skid shoes on a green bucket stick out like a sore thumb, but I will fix that. I have not gotten to try them out, as we do not have any snow yet, and if I never get to use them this winter, It will not break my heart. Looks like the will work very well. Thank you
Want to thank you guys for making and excellent product line beyond what I had any idea of in quality and explanation of use. I have only just mounted the edge tamers and have yet to get to use them with any snow coming. I also totally look forward to the extenders and moving logs around the property. Without a doubt they will be superb performers! Thanks!
Good looking product, fits great. I have a long drive, about 3/4 mile some pavement and some not. Should be a big help.
SO far the units fit as advertised. Have used the Trash tamers and they work FINE.. the Nuts on these need to be welded alternatively so a person can use the take/on/off tool can be used from the OUTSIDE of the bucket; also develop a QUICK on/off process for the trash tamers. Don't need them ON all the time. Wish you WELL in your business. L. Paul...... 73 KD9AYP
I had some questions about the Edge Tamer and Hitch Tamer. I called R2 and left a message. I promptly received a call back with my questions answered. My order was also shipped promptly. A very good customer experience.
I had placed an order one evening and the very next day I got an email from Rob explaining that they were out of the cast edge tamers. He gave me two options,
1} was to get a set of the original fabricated edge tamers immediately or, 2) wait 2-3 weeks for the cast tamers. I opted to wait. I got them in two weeks. I really appreciate the quick communications, the quality of the product, and the fact that their product is made in America. We need to support these type of business' more often. Thank you!
Installed and used already works as described. Ordering went well and shipped in a reasonable amount of time.
