Implements : 54" Mower
Purchased From : Steve Barlow Equipment
Strengths Very powerful for its size. Got it for 4 wd feature as I use it to mow/brush hog on pretty steep ...like 40 deg. hills. Does outstanding job...better than anticipated.
Weaknesses Haven't had it long enough but atarting to notice that need to adjust forward creep when foot off the forward pedal. Also very abrupt stops on releasing rear pedal.
Overall Love it. Can't wait to use it next time. Have told wife may go out and sleep next to it!

Implements : FEL MMM 5' Back Blade
Purchased From : Portland Implement
Strengths Quality of cut with MMM. I was amazed at how nice my lawn looked.Power to spare. I have a sandstone ledge that I finally started moving with the FEL and all I can say is wow. I got way more than I thought I was getting. Loader detaches very easy, only took me 7 minutes the first time.
Weaknesses No first aid kit with sedatives to calm me down. This tractor is an extension of me. I expect it to work as hard as me and it goes way beyond that.
Overall I looked for almost two years and almost bought the new Massey Ferguson sub compact but I definitely made the right choice.

Implements : 4' KK bushhog, 5' rear blade, 8' boom pole' 60" belly mower
Purchased From : Abbeville, Louisiana
Strengths Very powerful and fuel efficient! I bushhog 7 acres of 2 and 3 foot tall grass @ 2800 rpm and it never misses a beat. Small enough to share the barn with the Kawasaki mule (I think the mule is a little bigger) yet works like a champ- even on a hot Louisiana summer afternoon. Note- I never run the engine wide open- 2400 to 2800 is great for cutting the 2 acres with the belly mower and 7 acres with the bushhog (king kutter 4')
Weaknesses The reverse pedel is a little far back for my taste, I am tall and have long legs, it sometimes takes a little moving to reach it with my big old feet. Needs a little weight on the front when using my 3- point boom pole to lift even lighter items. Anything over 300 lbs and you have to weigh it down.
Overall Superb machine! Will get a FEL in the near future, I have many uses for it!

Review By : Surveyor on 7/31/2008
Price Paid : $14,500.00
Years of Use : 30-Days
Implements : 60 inch mower, front loader, rear blade
Purchased From : Birkey
Strengths Lots of power. I really like how easy it is to take the attachement off and on. It seem to use very little fuel for how hard I have worked it. I have about 70 hours on it so far.
Weaknesses Like others have said, its a little tippy with a full end loader bucket. So far mine is not running hot at all. Mine also tended to not stop when letting off the forward pedal. I found the adjustment for this. There is a spring that you can tighten to help this. I bought a muclh kit for the deck. I haven't installed it yet, I had to order another part and blades for it. This should come as part of the kit and I can see it will be difficult to install. The hydraulic fluid is pretty pricey through Kubota.
Overall Great mower and I love the end loader and 3 point blade. I can't believe how much work you can get done with it. I think of all the dirt and gravel I have used a wheel barrow for. I should have bought one years ago.

Price Paid : $15,000.00
Years of Use : 1-year
Implements : FEL, Back Blade, Front Mount Snow Blower, Canopy and weather break
Purchased From : Ginop Sales
Strengths Powerful for such a light weight tractor. I have 120 hours on it so far. All loader, back blade and snowblower work. I've been digging stumps and pulling trees out of the woods. It is very manuverable in the brush.
Weaknesses I have not experienced any of the overheating or deck cracking problems others have. My only problem has been the block heater shorted out.
Overall Overall great! It can do about anything within reason, it just takes longer than a heavier machine would.

Price Paid : $15,000.00
Years of Use : 1-year
Implements : mower, loader and tiller
Purchased From : American Lawn and Leisure
Strengths easy on gas
Weaknesses My BX2350 has been in the shop 25% of the time I've owned it. The transmission blew within two weeks, required six weeks to get a new transaxle. Seal on wheelwell has blown three times. Brakes has gone out, as you can drive it with the parking brake set with no hesitation, required 15 hours labor to fix the brakes. My dealer did a poor job of repair, requiring me to go to another dealer. Dealing with Kubota Division office has been more than trying.
Overall Very disappointed with tractor and with Kubota service.

Years of Use : 2-Years
Implements : mower
Purchased From : Johnson City Kubota
Strengths Great machine. I was using a smaller 42 inch cut rider before and it took me 4.5 hrs to mow my two acres. I get it done under three with this baby. Lots of power
Weaknesses Deck cracked, being replaced at the dealer now. i took it in because it was giving me a problem with the PTO sticking to the point of not turning the mower blades. The dealer said the valve in the PTO clutch was clogged up, and then he had to replace the valve. I love my machine but wonder it anyone else had this problem. I have now found anyone with a sinilar problem. Also it does run hot after mowing for about two hours on a hot day. I guess I need to clean the air filters.
Overall Over all a great machine. I just hope the PTO problem does not mean I have a lemon. I have had this machine for two years and only used 86 hrs so far.

Purchased From : FLINT NEW HOLLAND
Strengths FUEL. I HAVE THE BX2350 WITH THE 60" MIDMOUNT DECK AND MOW 4 ACRES. THE 4 ACRE MOW ONLY USED 3 GALLONS OF FUEL. WHEN REVIEWING OTHER GAS MODELS (CRAFTSMAN 27HP), THE EXPECTATION WAS 4 GALLONS EVERY 2 ACRES. PRICE WAS $10,500 WITH 0% FOR 42 MONTHS. BEST DEAL ON THE MARKET!
Weaknesses I HAVE ONLY HAD THE TRACTOR FOR 1 MONTH AND HAVE NOT RUN ACROSS A WEAKNESS.
Overall I AM VERY HAPPY WITH THE TRACTOR AND WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE. i CAN'T WAIT TO PUSH SOME SNOW. (MICHIGAN)

Review By : KSO603 on 5/12/2008
Price Paid : $14,500.00
Years of Use : 180-Days
Implements : FEL, snowblower, rotary cutter, grader blade
Purchased From : Union Farm Equipment, Maine
Strengths 2350 has great power and I've moved some serious loads of rock with the FEL. Snowblowed over 18 inches of snow multiple times this winter and never needed more power. Snowblowed uphill with just turf tires and never slipped. Handles well this season as a mower as well.
Weaknesses Shattered the transmission cooling fan while bushhogging and blew out a sidewall on oe of the rear OTR GrassMaster tires on some sharp brush. These tires weren't that easy to find for replacement!
Overall Great tractor for the price, after comparing it with the JD 2305. Nicer layout than the New Holland. I would recommend this tractor to anyone for small/midsized work. I mow 4 acres and bushhog 3, plus clear 1600 feet of driveway with a rear mount snowblower in Maine.

Weaknesses The website wont let me post strenghts !
Overall the web page is abit screwy, but i wanted to tell you folks what you can do with weight on a 72 inch rake! I have a farm force quick hitch( I know a woods ripoff....), but holy! I added 300 lbs on top for about 750 at hitch center, this thing works. You won't be disappointed. It does a better job than the King Kutter BB. Get weight in the back, an amazing performer with weight.
