The only reviews of these size tractors are by the farm magazines, I would suggest doing a search for some of these sites, there are links to them everywhere... Consumer reports does not do tractors of these sizes. However, what everyone will tell is this.. Find the local dealers and see what they KNOW and what they have parts for. If you use the tractor for commercial uses and it breaks you generally need to get parts THAT day. versus waiting 24-48 hours for parts to be fedexed in. So if it is just to do work around the house and you can put up with a delay, then other tractors can be considered. My dad could never buy a foreign car, becuase he has a cabin in upstate PA, where there are only ford, chrysler, gm dealers, if he needed something fixed they had the parts locally. If he had a honda they would have to go to the next major wn about 1-1/2 away to get the part - the same with tractors... good luck good luck
