How do you guys like the slit seeders.

Never used one but curious if they are better than a regular verticutter. I've seen a couple Lesco power seeders with Honda engines around that use hydro power to move. Really like some feedback about slit seeders and if they can replace a good verticutter. I vcut many 5-9k sq ft lawns and would love to upgrade.

How much slower than a 18" billygoat vcutter are they? (4.5hp robin)
How well do they turn on the smaller properties? Lots of turning involved for me.

I was mainly wanting to upgrade the verticutting action and not concerned about the seeding so much.
