Strengths Overall great machine very well built, a real workhorse very versatile, easy to transport, no dissapointments

Weaknesses Could use a faster travel speed

Overall Excellent for tight places, can do the work of the big guys. We use it for concrete removal, Excellent lifting capacity, Four wheel steering is very turf freindly.

Strengths Small and easy to drive and use. Much better operator station then most mini-backhoes. Built like a tank. Bob-Cat quick connect for attachments AND comes plumbed for auxillary attachments. 4x4 drive and four wheel steering with 16.5" wheels on back AND front.

Weaknesses Gee, it can't do what the big guys do; however, its strengths more than make up for this weakness.

Overall Before you plunk down the money for a mini TBL, please check out the Bob-Cat B100/B200/B300 or the Ingersoll-Rand units BL-370B and BL-275B.
