Looking at one of these. Would be our first ctl. Good and bad about these? Like the idea of the side door. Had rented a 1yr old Case TV380 last fall for a job. Was a good machine other than it had the hand/foot controls. Hated how the door wouldn't open unless the loader was down on stops. Made it difficult when you are running forks carrying pipe.
they're a rebranded jcb machine in case that wasnt obvious. made in the usa, if that matters to you. the side door is a big plus if running attachments.
