Strengths Great engine, strong for it's size. Really goes with the rear wheels locked. I've cleaned up more junk on my 31 acre property with it than I even thought possible. I don't have any problems with overheating, you just have to keep the filters/screens clean. I have about 35hrs on it.
Weaknesses Some of the plastic cowling is cheap and doesn't line up right. But whats new there. The sway adjustments on the 3pt are crummy, need some hand adjusters hoops instead of the just the threaded stuff. The grease zerks need better locations on the bucket.
Overall Great machine. I'm a newby with tractors, but this thing WORKS- just takes some time with bigger projects. It's not tippy with weight in the back, so it's a good upfront investment with the FEL. Use a pickle bucket and wires ties for tools on the ROPS !

Implements : FEL, 60" mmm. 60" Box Blade, 60" Front Blade
Purchased From : Ginop Sales- Hillman, MI
Strengths This is one heck of a machine. I could not believe what it could do. I really can not say enough good things about the machine and the dealer. Winter times is a blast!! My neighbor don,t mind the free snowplowing< I have too much fun. What ever I need this tractor to do, it just does it and asks for more. It did get tippy with a full load, but after learning wht was tou much I was all right.
Weaknesses Runs hot if you do not pay attention to the filter and screen
Overall AWESOME!

Price Paid : $14,850.00
Years of Use : New Owner (0-1 Year)
Implements : Back Road blade and front end loader
Purchased From : South Georgia Tractor Company
Strengths Makes doing farm work fun! Easy to learn how to manuver and operate. Has plenty of power for what we have to use it for on our farm. Has really been put to the test mowing our pastures (8 acres plus our 2 acre home yard) and has definitely been "WORKED". The pastures had not been mowed a great deal and it is going to take a while for us to get them back in shape...but I have no doubt this tractor will do the job.
Weaknesses Tends to get close to over heating. Found out you need to check your vents and filters and remove any stray parts....such as grass, dust etc. Other than this one factor we are very pleased with our purchase.
Overall The decision in buying this tractor was because I felt very unsafe on a large tractor. We had a Ford 4000 and I refused to drive it because I felt like I was going to get hurt or hurt someone with it. That was way too much tractor and I hated being up so high off the ground. With the Kubota 2350 I am close to the ground...I don't feel scared or feel like I am going to get hurt. I am cautious about going to fast and am getting more confidence as I learn the different features. Funny thing about this whole experience is the tractor was purchased for me (the wife) but my husband had been on it almost 100% more than I have. So who did he really buy it for? :)

Years of Use : New Owner (0-1 Year)
Implements : SQ148 Bush Hog, Cammond BDL48 Box Blade, 60" MMM, LA243 FEL
Purchased From : Zimmerer Kubota-Denton, TX.
Strengths Strong and tough. Reliable engine and hydraulics. Impressive performance for it's size.
Weaknesses Poorly engineered design on radiator pre-screening system (battery cover). Poor location, and clogs easily, causing under-performance, and over-heating.
Needs skid plates underneath place on at factory...not after-market.
Overall Highly recommended for small to medium sized properties.

Price Paid : $12,000.00
Years of Use : New Owner (0-1 Year)
Implements : FEL, 60 inch mower
Purchased From : Gene and Matts Tractors, Winder GA
Strengths Mows and runs great! FEL easy to take off and mount--same with mower. Dealer has been great!
Weaknesses Have cracked the deck twice on the left side. the dealer replaced with a supposedly improved rear assembly whick cracked again. Havent had a chanch to talk to the dealer yet, but don't anticipate problems with getting it fixed. However the way the deck is attached to the rear fender assembly is an extremely poor design and will fail again unless an improvement is made in the way it is attached to the deck!
Overall It runs great and except for the cracking of the rear fender assembly I love the tractor!

Price Paid : $13,400.00
Years of Use : New Owner (0-1 Year)
Implements : 4' box scraper, 5' landscape rake
Purchased From : Bingham Tractor, Tucson, Arizona
Strengths Plenty of power, very stable if you use your head and don't go crazy. Controls are very easy to use and in a comfortable position. It does every thing expected. Financed for 3 year, 0%. Orange, blue, green or yellow all have good tractors. You have to go where the dealership and service department will treat you well. Kubota will treat you very well, even if you don't spend 12 hrs a day in a half-million dollar combine.
Weaknesses The obvious that people say about all small tractors, the light are not positioned well, but how much do it yourself landscaping do you do at night. It is a small tractor, you will not build roads with this...unless you have a lot of time. It is for small jobs so understand that up front. The previous complaints that the left floorboard cracks has been fixed at the factory with a support.
Overall Excellent tractor for the home owner that needs a tractor for small/medium jobs around the house. Mine came with a 4' Land Pride box scraper for balance. It works great. I just bought a 5' landscape rake for the 3 point hitch from www.ironmanfabrication.net and that works very well to get the big rocks out of the yard.

Implements : 60" mmm 60" woods backblade
Purchased From : Smardt Equipment in Zelie, Pa
Strengths Very good priced tractor, lots of power. used for mowing 4 acre yard and a mowing business. large enough for big yards and small enough to fit in small spots Good lights. good 4wd
Weaknesses rear 3 pt. and mm pto should have seperate lower/ raising lever so you can have the mower on at the same time as the back blade when "pulling" snow with backblade, back end tends to kick out
Overall Very good tractor for the money

Implements : FEL, 60" belly mower
Purchased From : Old Hwy 6
Strengths Plenty of power.
Light enough that the turf tires don't tear up the lawn.
Weaknesses Too light for the FEL to cut thru compacted soil. Use a box blade or tiller to loosen before using the FEL.
Overall I am very happy with the tractor. Looked at a Kubota last spring and wish I had bought one then. Buy with confidence!!!
