I am arguing with a friend about whether the Shulchan Aruch, being Sepharadi, weighed Sepharadi poskim higher than Ashkenazi ones. The above question came up.

The rule which he wrote in his hakdama ,is he goes after majority of the 3,but we see that he paskens somtimes like the Rambam stam – sam Jan 5 '17 at 17:53

And sometimes he goes after the minhag, regardless of the majority or the Rambam, but that was not my question. – B111 Jan 5 '17 at 17:56

Also why are you considering the Rosh as a Ashkenazi ,he was became Rav in Spain and had what to do with the Rashba,even though he learnt ny the Mahrahm. – sam Jan 5 '17 at 18:10

1Wouldn't you need to also inquire if he ever ruled with any of those 3 against the other two? Would it matter if there were different amounts of times that he ever chose to follow a single opinion? Dioraisa's or DiRabanan's? Lichatchila or Bidieved? I think any source you get won't settle your argument. – user6591 Jan 5 '17 at 18:11

The Shulchan Arukh (OC 259:1) rules like Rosh, against Rif and Rambam, that wool shearings used to insulate a pot before Shabbat are not Muktza even if they weren't designated as insulation as long as they weren't designated as a commodity to be sold. This is one of the examples Rama, in his introduction to Darkei Moshe, gives in critique of the Beit Yosef.
