I use a 12 wheel rake but it is not a carted rake. If you have uneven ground then you will hate that carted rake. It will do everything but rake right. When you go down through a low spot it will tear out the hay like a tiller. Then when you go over a high spot it will leave most of the hay.
Also for $1500 you are not going to get much of a rake. I would really check the individual teeth out. On a wheel rake the teeth wear right at the flat ring that all of the teeth go through. They pivot right there. They get worn. You will start out losing a few teeth and then they really fail in a hurry. Had a friend buy a used wheel rake. He made one lap around his field with it set correctly but the teeth where worn badly. He lost twenty teeth. He had steel teeth in that out side round for years.
I have one like the one pictured. Sitrex makes all of the following wheel rakes: M&W, New Holland, Sitrex, and CIH
