The engine runs smoothly and is quieter than I expected. I used it to dig trenches for new irrigation lines, and it worked flawlessly. The various attachments are really handy too!

Good Value for the Price
For the price, this mini excavator offers great value. The engine is powerful, and the machine is easy to operate. I did have a minor issue with a hydraulic hose, but customer support was quick to assist. So 5 stars!

I've used this excavator for a bunch of small jobs around my place, like clearing brush and digging holes for new fence posts. The engine is reliable, and the attachments provided work very well.

Good deal.
The staff at AHM provided excellent communication. I received the excavator in a timely manner. Only had to add gas to drive it out of the crate. Good for small trees and hedges with a ripper. Great for ditches and laying pipe. I’m glad I chose AHM.

Nice machine
I used this machine for about 45 minutes and had a issue with a hydraulic hose that had a small pinhole in it. It wasn't a defect from assembly but just a bad hose. I called and emailed ahm and they were outstanding on helping me get my machine back in action. Great customer service. As for the machine the engine is very smooth and plenty of power. The hydraulics are smooth also. I have no complaints of the machine except the hose which was a bizarre situation.

GREAT value well made
It's a grapple for a walk behind skid for a fairly low price compared to others on the market. Seems to be relatively heavy duty minus the very important tines. Has a pretty strong 'grip' although this is also dependent upon the machine it's on.

This thumb is made well. Had it on my AGT-QH12 excavator I bought at an auction last month to pick up large rocks and logs. Works just as I needed.

Great Machine
Used to have an AGT HT-12, thought that was the bee's knees. But this? Whole different ballgame. Yeah, it's a bit pricier, but you get what you pay for. AGT's after-sales service sucks, but AHM's quick response helped resolve the issue. Plus, I really love how this machine has many detailed upgrades.

Great
Specializing in AHM's remote-controlled lawn mowers was the smartest move I've made. The mower is powerful and cuts evenly. I highly recommend it.
