Everything as advertised and seen in online videos on what to expect. Delivery was quick and simple placing the crate exactly where I requested. The 6 attachment package was a really good deal for me as i needed all of them.

Fantastic excavator! Far exceeded my expectations in power and quality. Not a loose bolt not a scratch in the paint. The expanding track base is worth the trade off for not being able to get the Kubota motor but the Vanguard 23hp is awesome power. I have yet to run it above 1/4 throttle for heavy digging in dry fairly hard clay and it’s quieter than my Kubota tractor. It seems very reasonable on fuel too. I drove it out of the crate onto the box truck lift gate.

Good seller & value. I ordered a narrow bucket and ripper from them. Both were in the hands of FedEx within two business days and delivered quickly. Shipping won’t necessarily be from CA but most likely originate closer to you. I live in the northeast and mine came from NJ for faster delivery. As for the mini excavator, the retractable undercarriage was the big selling point for me. It gives the machine way more stability, especially when digging into heavy stuff. You can extend the tracks for more balance and support, which makes it easier to handle those bigger, tougher jobs. It feels solid, and I’ve been able to dig deeper and lift heavier loads without worrying about tipping over. The controls took a bit to get used to, but it’s been smooth since then. It’s a bit slower to move around, but that’s not a big deal when you’re working on tough, uneven ground. Overall, the machine’s been exactly what I needed and more.

The machine arrived in good shape and was easily unloaded. Took a bit of time to unboxing but pleasantly surprised by how nice the machine was. For some reason the battery was not fully charged and nd a quick call to AHM and talking to Juan got it up and running. Taking it out for the first work session was a little intimidating at first getting used to the controls. Take your time and move the joy sticks slowly. If you get a thumb for it, it takes quite a bit of effort to get the joystick to work, apply quite a bit of force and it will work. This machine continues to be hard to start and I think it’s because of the cool weather and my getting accustomed to how this thing works. If I don’t get it figured out, I’ll call support to try and get it fixed. The machine takes FOREVER to move from one place to another, which is good if the ground is uneven as it might not take a lot to roll it over because of the narrow width of the tracks. It is stable when picking logs and stumps and moving them to the burn pile if carrying the load low to the ground and close to the machine. All in all I am very happy with the purchase and abilities of this machine. Wish I’d purchased a lot sooner than I did.

I wasn't sure about this by it worked great! Packaged well, shipped promptly, and a good deal. Thanks!!

The hook fit perfectly into my quick attach fitting and went straight to work in the rocks. It stays solid with my thumb to lift rocks, and I often use it to grab and flip rocks that are way too big for my machine. It's much easier to get under and around a rock with just the hook than trying to do it with a bucket.

Auger arrived today packaged inside a cardboard box inside a wooden box safe and sound. Can't wait to use it.

I just received this Bucket and have not tried to attach it to my excavator or use it. For the price this appears that it will work good for my intended purposes which is to remove weeds that have grown up through my gravel.
I would definitely buy this again as the price was reasonable and the quality will get the job done.

Used this to rip out a stump. Worked a lot better than the bucket. Was more effective than I thought it would be.

This fit my AHM AX12B perfectly. Add a rake and it makes an awesome Grapple.

Was hoping for a good product and was more than pleasantly surprised. I received this 4 in 1 bucket super fast in FL and everything about the transaction went flawlessly!

Just got my excavator last week, haven’t had a chance to really put it to work yet, but so far it looks great, everything seems solid and well built, can’t wait to get some hours on it.

This was exactly what I needed to help with digging the poles for my fence.

Picked up this mini excavator last year for projects out back on the hillside behind the house. Been really enjoying it, it’s handled everything I’ve thrown at it for hardscaping and cleanup work. The best part has been the customer support. I’d never heard of this brand before buying, so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but their team has been awesome. Had a couple minor questions along the way and they were quick to jump in and help out. Honestly, it’s been a great experience. Glad I pulled the trigger on this one.

A good quality bucket for a very fair price. Appreciate the included bolts. Fits my 1ton mini very well.
