Has anyone had much experience with the Sany excavator? We are demoing a new SY500 right now and the guys seem to like it. Curious if anyone had any feedback once these start to get some real hours on them.
personally i like them because of the price/value ration. it has normal components and such as kawasaki and have a decent reputsation within asia and the rest of the world besides north america and europe. people in NA and europe seem to like their name brands. If i had the money i would start a dealership for these type of brands here on vancouver island for either sany, liuGong, or preferably xcmg. they seem to be the right price point for the quality. and also nice and simple.
We had a Liugon loader on demo for month. The longest we went without a break down was three days .Many times twice in one day
i think it also depends how often you use the machine, if its running 24-7 or needs to be reliable and run all shift its bettter to take a common brand, if its more occasional than chinese machines are fine,
This was a machine with under 1000 hrs on it ,7 hrs a day.
