I am writing to pass on the following testimonials pertaining to your Kromer Athletic Field Machine. You have my permission to include them in any of your brochures.

Our three KROMERs allow us to line up to 50 fields weekly using 5,000 gallons of paint annually. They not only make it possible to get the job done, but with a 60% savings in time over previous procedures. The KROMERs great design, durable construction and extremely low maintenance has proven to be one of our best purchases.

In addition to the excellent job by the Infield Groomer, The Ridge Remover attachment is "the best friend of infield players" from 1st to 3rd base. It easily removes the clay buildup ridge on sod that creates crazy hops for both baseball and softball players. Thank you for making our job easier in providing the best playing surface.

I just wanted to let you know how pleased we are with the KROMER Athletic Field Machine. One piece of equipment will do the work of several different units.

In the beginning I had a hard time getting my men to use the equipment, but now they won't use anything else.

The KROMER utility is a great versatile machine, from spraying for ants to grooming shot put pits. It also is very economical in saving time and labor.

We can go out and groom all our fields, then in minutes change over to lining and line our football fields or cross country course.

I want to thank you for developing a great field striper. In six (6) years at St. Thomas we have used three (3) different stripers and yours is by far the best one we have used. We save about 25% on labor time using your striper and we have straightened the lines on our fields.

The striper is also a great sprayer for applying Round-Up along trees, fences, curbs, etc. We can do our whole campus in one day, instead of 3-4 days using pack sprayers.

I would be pleased to be a reference to other perspective owners.

I'm sending you this letter in thanks for your outstanding service, and for the Kromer Infield Groomer/Liner, which our department purchased last spring from your company.

Our time spent grooming infields, and lining athletic fields has been cut by about 1/3, due to the great performance of your machine. With the large 50 gal. paint tank, we can re-line our fields each day without refilling between fields. We have also received excellent feedback from the high school athletic directors, about the conditions of our infields. In addition to the performance of the in-field groomer, the routine maintenance of the unit is quick and easy.

Daily cleaning and maintenance is simple, and takes less than an hour to maintain. Monthly and yearly maintenance is fairly easy, and can be completed within one to three hours. Except for a couple of minor problems, the infield groomer rates very high with reference to maintenance and performance.

With our continued success from the quality of your equipment, we hope to purchase another similar unit within the next 3 years. Again, thank you for your excellent service, and quality of your products.

I'm writing to let you know how pleased the Lakeville custodial staff and I are with the machine our district purchased from you. It does a high quality job both as a striper and infield groomer, two jobs that take a significant amount of custodial time. Since we began using your machine we estimate the time for these tasks has been reduced by about two-thirds. This means the initial capital cost of the new machine will be paid off by a reduction in custodial salary in only 2 1/2 years. Since the life of the machine should exceed ten years we can expect several years of savings.

Your staff has given us fine service both before and after the purchase. Thanks for your help.

I want to take this opportunity to personally thank the Kromer Company for the excellent equipment you have provided in the way of a utility tractor with groomer and attachments. I highly recommend this field grooming equipment to military, intramural, university, and other city park and recreation agencies.

Our Kromer equipment is used on a daily basis at Fort Carson for 25 outdoor fields in preparation for numerous games and competition. This is heavy duty quality equipment that is used constantly. Line painters and chalkers have been a life saver and have saved us substantial dollars in labor costs, we consider this field grooming equipment to be the finest on the market today. Once again, we highly recommend Kromer equipment for quality field preparation.
