I have not seen any Superior bins in this area. There are a fair number of Sioux bins. The Sioux bin is a good high quality bin. The weight of the bins is huge factor in how strong the bins are. If there is a big weight difference and price difference do a lot of checking to see why there is such a difference. Some light bins suggest external stiffeners that are not quoted at the time of purchase. Kind of a bait and switch deal.
I just looked at Superior bins on line. All the bins they show have external stiffeners. Do not know anymore than looking at the pictures. Just usually the cost per bushel is usually fairly close on bins of similar quality. So if there is a big difference in quotes you need to do some home work and see why.
I would rate Brock, Sukup, Sioux and Conrad as equal in strength and quality. MFS is fairly good too. GSI=light duty.
I would never own another GSI bin. Light weight bins, thin roofs. I had one. Darn near fell of it when the grab handle pulled through the thin roof. When the GSI bin was about 4-5 year old I switched to a batch dryer. I was dumping hot corn in the bins and cooling it in them. So the corn would settle. The GSI bin was a 36 foot bin when the corn settled it kinked the entire bin right above the air floor. GSI would not do anything about it. I took it down and bought sheets to replace the kinked ones. Traded it on a new Brock bin of the same size. 5000 lbs. difference in the weights of the bins.
I will tell you that getting a bin installed for this fall would be very iffy a round here. With a large crop and low prices storage is going to be in high demand. Local bin installation company says they are booked to Dec. with all sold orders.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
