    Kubota Quality

    Looks like the same box I ordered, only mine is red. Wow, that is some serious lead weight. I don't really have a source for cheap steel or lead but that seems like a good choice. I wish I had every brake rotor and drum I ever threw away, lol.

    Kubota Quality

    I found the Rotary cutter manual tied to the drive shaft, in a plastic bag and completely soaked and moldy. I downloaded a copy online. I'm told the manual for the loader is packed in a 5 gallon pale with the parts, I never received it so apparently the dealer threw it away. Still haven't found...

    Kubota Quality

    The box I ordered has a sliding door to empty it. The reviews said sand leaks out that is why I was planning on pea gravel. It also has fork cut outs and a 2" receiver tube for a trailer hitch. I plan to store it inside when not in use.

    Kubota Quality

    The tractor itself seems flawless. I was under the mistaken belief that the tractor and loader were made in Japan, but now I know the loader was made in USA. One thing I wish the salesman would have recommended was ballast. I was using the loader with forks to move pallets around my house and...

    Kubota Quality

    Absolutely the reason I picked Kubota is because of recommendations and satisfaction of owners like you. Kubota has reputation for the highest quality and is the reason their products hold their value. Land Pride are the only implements I even considered, I did not shop around I trusted the...

    Kubota Quality

    Except the dealer did not build it, Kubota did and they are the ones who failed to complete the welding. I was in RV manufacturing for almost 20 years, I understand that when over 1,200 employees are building products mistakes happen. There were many missed opportunities to catch the missing...

    Kubota Quality

    Salesman told me the unit had PDI done twice, joked about it going to cost them for one. He did not give me the copies of the PDI sheets. The first thing I did was purchase new grease gun and recommend impact rated grease and check all the fittings. We also torqued all the lug nuts per owners...

    I wish the whole thing was made in Japan if this is the quality of work that comes from Georgia plant.

    Kubota Quality

    The dealer has been very responsive from day one, I have absolutely no complaints about them. This defect was costly to me though. I took two days off work to clear a half acre lot I own across town and arranged for the tractor delivery early Thursday morning to my home. My son and I drove to my...

    Kubota Quality

    Thank you. I figured from the tag the loader may have been made in USA but it doesn't say that specifically. The dealer said the unit was welded by robot but apparently the process starts with the brackets being tack welded in place, and in the end only a small tack weld was holding on each...

    Kubota Quality

    I've always heard that Kubota Tractors were of the highest quality and they hold their value which was one of the factors in my choosing a new B2301HST-1 to purchase. My new tractor was delivered by the dealer to my home two weeks ago with all it's attachments and was picked up the same day by...
