I've seen this loader in action, they break down quickly. It's better to rent it if you need to work with it. They definitely aren't worth their money, I didn't buy it.

We have spent a long time choosing a telescopic loader for work on a small site (rented). This model is just superb. It is maneuverable and well-built, easily deserving a 5-star rating. Even the quality of the metal is outstanding. If we ever need a loader again, there is no doubt that we will choose only this model.

We have a CAT 320 mini excavator at our enterprise. Everything was fine until recently when the boom started hanging. The boom can only be raised properly if several operations are performed simultaneously. I didn't dare to fix the breakdown myself because I lack experience. I started looking for a specialist in foreign machinery. It took me a lot of time, but I achieved the desired result.

Took the Liebherr MK88 mobile crane on lease. We emphasized quick installation, and this model of special equipment seemed most suitable to us. For installation, it is enough to press one button, which saves time that is usually spent on preparation for work. The telescopic two-section tower makes this mobile crane versatile.

So here's my question, why would you buy a machine that has spare parts that cost as much as a piece of a spaceship? And these loaders break down just like any other praised machinery. Maybe in the manufacturer's country there are different operating conditions, I don't know, but we've had nothing but problems with them on our construction sites. First, there was an issue with the fuel pump, then some malfunctions with the transformer lock. In short, it's a headache and it comes at a hefty price. So think twice before getting yourself an expensive piece of equipment like this, consider if it will really pay off for you in the end.

Our company bought this Chinese machine brand new. In just 2 years, the crane is practically dead, even though it hasn't been used extensively. China is China.

Digs quickly, decent productivity for a shift, but not suitable for large volumes, and personally, I preferred JCB machines for the job.

What can you say about a machine that is so many years old? It still works, and that's already good. It is evident that the equipment was built to last for years; it is easy to repair, and finding spare parts is not difficult. It slowly succumbs to rust, but we combat it with touch-ups. The cabin is already a bit damaged, but it will still serve as a bulldozer for its years.

Decided to lease the TR100 crane three years ago. It worked fine until last year. The machine stood unused all winter, and as a result, the computer stopped working. A major issue arose with the gear switch - it was only possible to engage the first gear. The problem turned out to be a loss of communication with the sensors. A complex and expensive repair was needed. I concluded that this crane does not tolerate extended periods of inactivity well.
