Weaknesses HST could use a third gear or lower top gearing.
Overall Excellent machine. Great value.

Price Paid : $11,900.00
Years of Use : New Owner (0-1 Year)
Implements : FEL, 48 Tiller, Rear Blade, finish mower
Purchased From : Bobcat of Springfield
Strengths Great low end torque, power steering, ease of operation. Can handle realtively any job with ease and paitenence, just don't expect it to run like a D-9.
Weaknesses The rotten transmission, lacks the capability to get itself up a hill in high gear...seems to be a trend with this model. A dissapointment compared to the Kubota I just traded for it.
Overall A great product for the price, would spend a little more for a similar new kubota B7800 or B3030 with more HP the next time.

Implements : 12" auger, 48" rear finish mower, King Kutter XB dump trailer, FEL with tooth bar
Purchased From : Outback Tractor, Cumming, GA
Strengths 2006 model built very sturdy. Priced lower than competition. Engine starts easy and runs smooth. Drives stable, turns and operates easy.
Weaknesses No mid range gearing. Original seat was very thin and ripped within the first week of use. Dealer replaced with newer model which is much better. Tool box located in strange place. PTO shield gets in the way and was smashed within the first months use.
Overall Perfect for my two acres. Have used the auger to plant many trees, shrubs, bushes and other plants. Mower keeps things looking nice in summer. Power steering makes it easy to steer with the FEL full. Quick bolt-on forks for the FEL makes it easy to unload and move palletized cargo.

Implements : 6ft Finish mower, Beuhler
Purchased From : Nationwide Farm and Fence Co. Smithf ield, Ky
Strengths Excellent power, works well with the mower. Recently used a 7ft. bush hog on a rolling, large field with no problem. I like the HST.
Weaknesses Poor gas mileage and the hour counter has not worked since I bought it. Hopefully Nationwide will correct this, however they have not as of 10/04/06. I bought it 7/01/06.
Overall Overall very satisfied with the easy operation of this tractor.

Strengths Feels good and solid, turns nicly.
Weaknesses If you do some reading online you'll find that there are two chronic issues with this tractor. Sadly, I've had them both. My transmission was weak and it would not back up over things. A trip to the dealer did fix this. Now I am finding that my loader is cracking, this seems to happen to lots of people as well. While this machine seems to be a good value, I would not buy it again. Kioti has a ways to go to get their quality up to par.
Overall If they could get their issues straightend out it might be okay.

Price Paid : $15,000.00
Years of Use : 2+ Years
Implements : MM, FEL, Tiller Plow Disc,Rake, Blade,Tilis Tool,Pulverizer,BushHog
Purchased From :
Strengths Strong frame, Exelent wieght to HP Ratio, This machine in an experienced operators hands will out perform a 30-35 HP 2WD tractor all day long. I have recently pulled a lime hopper with 1.5 tons of lime in it. The only time the tractor groaned a little was when I was on soft tilled land.
Weaknesses the lift mechanism for the MM restricts the movement of the left arms and doesnt give enough clearance. A 3 range in between high and low range (mainly for mowing hilly terrain) would be perfered.
Overall You can not go worng with this machine. I have ran every size tractor form 20 HP all the way up to 200HP. Bear in mind that this is only 20 HP and will not do the work as fast as a big one and you will be very please with want it can do. The FEL on this tractor with a Tooth Bar will dig a hole you can bury the tractor in in as little as 10 minutes giving soil conditions.

Price Paid : $15,000.00
Years of Use : New Owner (0-1 Year)
Implements : Backhoe, Loader, Bush Hog
Purchased From :
Strengths Remarkable capability for 21hp TLB. Much more capable than Kubota BX23 and almost comparable to Kubota B21 TLB. Smooth, well built, powerful for size. Pulls 48"Bush Hog without any difficulty. Highest FEL capacity in class.
Weaknesses Wishlist: 3 range HST: the high range setting is useful only on the road or a flat field mowing.
Seat and seatbelt holders: note the 2006 version has much better seat/seatbelt arrangement.
Overall I am very happy with my purchase. I got it with 28hr on the machine so got a good price. New today would be $18K or so. Don't forget to add a toothbar to the FEL.

Implements :
Purchased From : Ohio
Strengths Nice compact size, solid and pretty well put together, nice loader design.
Weaknesses Crummy seat, bad key location, only 21hp when other brands of similar size are 24 to 26hp, too heavy for its size. Tractor has lots of promise but is a disappointment and I regret the purchase. Folks new to tractors probably will be happy with this little machine but not experienced users.
Overall Too much heft for lawn work. Layout is only "fair"
