Paid for itself fastNeeded something for tearing out old concrete, so I took the plunge. Runs quiet and sips fuel compared to the old machine we had at a small excavating outfit. Customer support answered my questions before I bought and again after delivery. That sealed it for me. The thumb is a game changer for picking up rock and brush while tearing out old concrete. Delivery took just under two weeks and the forklift unloading made it painless. Comfortable enough that long days aren’t a chore. Would absolutely buy again.

Beast of a machineI was nervous ordering equipment online, but I’m so glad I did. Perfect size for a remodeling business. Trailers easily behind my pickup and I can move it between sites myself. Tracks grip well on the slope behind our place. I’ve had it on wet ground clearing brush with no trouble. The 2.3-ton class is the sweet spot for us — tight enough to fit through a gate but it still has the muscle for clearing brush. Cuts my job time roughly in half on clearing brush. Two thumbs up from me.

Punches above its weightMy buddy recommended this one. Honestly thought it might be underpowered at this price but it handled digging footings like a much bigger machine. Coming from renting, owning this paid for itself in about two months of digging footings. Delivery took just under two weeks and the forklift unloading made it painless. Exactly as described, no surprises.

Built toughBought this for an acreage owner. Three months in here in rural Tennessee and it’s been flawless. Cold mornings, mud, long hours — it just works. The hydraulics are smooth and the controls are easy to learn. My nephew was running it confidently within an hour. Tracks grip well on the slope behind our place. I’ve had it on wet ground snow and debris cleanup with no trouble. Shipping was free and the freight driver called ahead to set up delivery. Hauled it home, fueled it up, and was working the same afternoon. Solid company, solid machine.

Impressed all aroundFinally replaced our tired old machine. Boom swing makes it so much easier to dig along walls and fences. Huge help when pulling stumps. Operators at a tree service all comment on how responsive it is. No lag in the controls at all. Visibility from the seat is excellent for pulling stumps. Highly recommend to anyone on the fence.

Solid little workhorseBought this for weekend property projects. Boom swing makes it so much easier to dig along walls and fences. Huge help when grading my driveway. For a first-time owner this was the right call. Easy to operate and tough enough for real work grading my driveway. Power is impressive for the size. The Kubota engine starts right up cold and never bogs down, even when grading my driveway. Freight was free to my door and the driver was patient getting it off the truck. Exactly as described, no surprises.

Five stars all dayMy buddy recommended this one. Power is impressive for the size. The Kubota engine starts right up cold and never bogs down, even when trenching for water lines. I was trenching for water lines all last weekend and it didn’t miss a beat. For the money there’s nothing else close. We added it to a county road crew and it’s already the most-used machine on the lot. Quiet enough that I can run it early without waking the house. Will be ordering parts and attachments from them again.
