Strengths Tremendous digging power and depth for its size. Heavy guage steel panels instead of the easily dented sheet metal on tractors. Very easy to get at all parts for maintenance. Simple controls. Drive, spin seat, use backhoe without getting off and on. Dump height easily handles any trucks.

Weaknesses The single speed hydro transmission and motors make travel from a dig point to a dump point very, very slow if any distance is involved.

Overall Purchased used for a project around the house. Was going to sell when project finished. Like it so much, I am going to sell my compact tractor, keep the Terramite and get a Zero Turn for mowing.

Strengths This is a very good backhoe. I bought the T9 7 years ago and have had no problems. I live in Arizona in the mountains and it is mostly rock. This machine makes it easy to dig.

Weaknesses The machine has no weaknesses but if you need a part it is almost impossible to communicate with the company. I have emailed every department trying to get a part and get no answers.

Overall Great machine bad customer service.

Strengths good little machine i looked at all other little machines like kubota BTL25 L39 JOHN DEERE 110 and bobcat back hoes.The T9 Digs 10 feet 4 wheel drive quick change back bucket easy to operate easy to drive just one peddle for foward reverse neutral very powerfull dug through 6"frozen dirt ripped out4"tree roots machine fits into almost any spot

Weaknesses in all honesty i have only had machine for 4 months and at this point in time i have nothing bad to say about the machine and i have done 10 excavation jobs with machine

Overall awesome little machine
