I'm on my 3rd Kioti, had ck3510, "the little tractor that could" I called it, ran 60" tiller, brush hog, box blade, two bottom plow, 72" finish mower, post hole digger, 78" front plow, 72" grapple, etc. NEVER had ANY issues, LOVED that tractor! My needs changed a bit last year and I traded for an NX4510 and I am just as happy with this tractor now- everything my 3510 did this tractor does better! A good dealer can absolutely make your experience infinitely better as well! I'm a loyal Kioti tractor customer for life, can't go wrong, IMHO
That is awesome to hear, and I agree 100 percent on the dealer they can make or break your experience. Thanks for watching. Hope you hit that subscribe button and rang the bell.
I bought a Kioti DK 55 10 with a backhoe attachment four years ago, put 1300 hours on it and I worked it as hard as I used to work my old (1984) industrial JD 310 backhoe loader. A much smaller but incredibly capable machine. Also I have the removal and installation of the backhoe down to under 5 minutes so I am using the bush hog, landscape rake, box blade, post hole driller, cultivator and rear snowblower without avoiding them because of the backhoe.
That's awesome. I hope I can get that good! Thanks for watching
I have had my Kioti DK5310SE for almost a year now and have had no problems. The dealer is definitely a make or break thing you have to consider. My dealer is great, the tractor came with industrial tires and I wanted the R14 tires. He let me use the tractor while we waited for the tires to come in and he just swapped them out. I love the R14 tires, I have not slipped in them while pushing snow and I have been pushing huge piles of snow! The tractor has also carried huge chunks of trees that the loggers left, I am very impressed with the Kioti tractor. You won’t be complaining if you buy one!

I have a Kioti DK4710SE and love it! One thing worth mentioning is lift capacity is superior to most brands.
This is true, Thanks for mentioning it. Also thanks for watching.
I have a ck2610 with the backhoe ,I've had it about 1 1/2 years I have 660 hrs on it. The only problem I've had is breaking the pins on the backhoe. The dealer has told me that they are designed to be the weak point rather than damaging the backhoe itself. I would buy another one in a heartbeat if I had to, tough machine
Thanks for watching and sharing your experiences. Hope you hit that subscribe button and rang the bell
What was the name of the dealer that you bought your tractor from and the location
I just bought a 5320 Kioti and it is a great tractor. My dealer is top notch. George in Montana
Right on! You will enjoy your new tractor and all the jobs it will help you complete. Thanks for watching
I bought a 2014 Kioti cs 2410 from my son. He needed a larger tractor. He was not happy with the single cylinder on the bucket dump. It pulled the piston out of the off the shaft because as we later found out the bucket dump let it go travel to far, it also cracked the cross bar that the cylinder is mounted to them later busted into. I had to sandwich it between two angle iron 1/2 inch Steele angels and ran bolts though them. Yes I tried to weld it but it just melted Yes I even preheated it but still. I run the tractor hard diving and moving heavy things. I know it's been a life saver for this old man.
Thanks for sharing that information. Also thanks for watching
My Kioti is 15 years old never a problem it starts and runs as good today as it did new!!!
That's awesome. How many hours do you have on in after 15 years
@@bigbearhomestead I’ll try to remember to look next time I’m on it
We got a NX4510HST from STEC in 2021. Bought it from Jay. STEC service department has been awesome! They have also been great steering us to the right attachments. Fantastic all-around dealer, great product at the best price. We have a 18 acre homestead. FWIW, it's very rare for me to post a positive review.
Great to hear!, and thanks for watching and most importantly thanks for sharing your experience.
I just got mine and have 13 hrs. on it. Almost bought a Kobota. I got more tractor for money. It's a fantastic tractor!!!
Right on!, Did you get it from our friends at Stec?
I had one for 5 yrs with zero issues. I sold it to get a bigger tractor but the dealer had closed down that was close by.
That stinks, do you think another dealer will open close to you?
I’ve had Kioti tractor’s for 8 years now , I keep up on the servicing and never had any problems. My first one I had for 6 years and then I upgraded to a cab tractor. They really are ahead of the pack 👍
Thanks for watching and sharing your experience with your tractor. It is great to see all this positive feedback.
Simper - fi brother .
Do you like the cab?
I just bought a 2510, but decided against the cab.
It's cold more than it's hot where I am, so I figured for less money I can put a soft cab on it when I want heat and to stay out of the elements, and then run it open top any other time I want for better situational awareness.
Since you ran both, what do you think you like the best?.
I stopped by stec today and J was very helpful. Great guy and i will definitely be back in a few LONG months to buy a ck2610
That's awesome we love Jay he is always a big help.
I had a DK35 se for sixteen years open station shuttle with loader and backhoe never had an issue with it. Recently traded for a DK5320 se hydro with a cab since most of my tractor work now that I am retired is snow removal so the cab made sense at this time. If you have a good dealer with great service department don't hesitate too get the Kioti it will serve you well.
Best advice ever, thanks for watching.
Jay is awesome! I bought my CX2510 Hst Cab tractor from STEC back in November 2022. By far, they have the best pricing and customer service as compared to other brands. Enjoyed the video.
Awesome, we love Jay. It was great seeing you again today.
My Kioti is a subcompact and it's performed beyond my expectations for the most part. Sounds like you have a great dealer, to me that's a HUGE part of buying a tractor, having a good dealer you can count on. In my experience parts are hard to get, at least at my dealer they are. Service at my dealer was not the best either. Like I said, been happy with the tractor, not so much the dealer. Best of luck on your decision!
Thanks for sharing, I agree if your dealership doesn't care it makes it harder on you later on down the rd.
I bought my CK4010se from Jay at STEC equipment a year ago this month. Everyone there is top notch. Customer service is definitely is their priority. Heck when I go up to Anderson I seem to always go there just to say hello and to pick Jay’s brain being this is my first tractor. Also, I went there a couple of months ago thinking I needed a bigger tractor. Jay sat me down and told me and I quote “ I’ll sell you a bigger tractor but your tractor will do everything you need just take smaller bites” if that isn’t customer service then I’m confused.
Thanks for watching and thanks for sharing, Jay and everyone at Stec were amazing.
Thank you for this. I am trying to talk my husband into buying me a tractor. I didn't even think about Kioti. I will be checking them out in my area.
Awesome and Stec told us that you could get from them and they can have it shipped to you. If you can't find one up in your area. Thanks for watching
@@bigbearhomestead It looks like there is one in the town where we do a lot of our shopping. We will be checking them out.
We love our Kioti , no issues at all … I still think you need to add a few implements 😂 a trailer and I think you really need a cab .
Lol
i have a ford 3000 ,this KIOTI WILL BE MY NEXT TRACTOR!!!!!! HANDS DOWN,,,,
Awesome, would you like Jay's contact. Information?
I have a 2019 NX5010 with 600 hrs. and have had no issues.
Awesome, great to hear. Thanks for sharing your experience and thanks for watching.
I will be looking under the BX2680 at the Kubota dealer to see if they have any protection for the parts between the frame rails...
Let us know what you find out
The belly of the Kubota BX2680 is wide open just like our new Kioti CS2520... Very similar machines and for $2200 more you get armrests on the BX2680....
Lol
Looks like you guys were impressed with this one.
We looked at a used JD tractor at STEC before we bought our Kubota. They were nice. The location of the fuel tank would be a concern from a damage perspective. Yes it’s avoidable, but if you’re trying to use it in an uneven area with stumps or rocks it could be an issue.
The 3pt adjuster on our Kubota is numbered. It also has a tilt wheel. Appreciating these videos.
The fuel tank is protected by a metal plate under it. The kubotas that we looked at didn't have the numbers. Thanks for watching these videos
Funny I stumbled on this video trying to research Kioti right now. Currently holding a price quote from Jay at STEC on a CS2220. Of all the phone calls I've made to different dealers he's the only one that asked about how I planned to use it.
That's a Jay will do you right
Did you say, "they made it marine proof?"
As a Marine, that hurt!
Semper Fi Brother and you know what i am talking about, when I say that
Best review on a tractor I’ve ever seen!
Wow, thanks! Hope you hit that subscribe button and rang the bell also lol Thanks for watching.
I have a Kioti ck3510se I had to go up Tennessee to buy my tractor because none of the dealers around me had the one I wanted and weren't getting any anytime soon but that was two years ago I love the tractor Works real well haven't had no problems with it. I installed a third function kit on it and the dealer in Marianna Florida wanted to charge me $100 for gallon of Kioti hydraulic oil I found out from the dealer I bought from it was only $20 a gallon so I left the dealer in Marianna Florida a bad review I won't ever use them I've got a couple of dealers around me that I could use if I ever need them other than that the tractor is awesome it does better than I expected
Sounds to me like you found a great tractor but a really bad dealer.
@@bigbearhomestead yep but I have more than one to choose from around me
Just bought a 2510.
Agree 100% with your experience.
Thanks, hope you hit that subscribe button and rang the bell
Hi guys, I would like to replace my little Kubota B2410 with a newer Kioti, I use it in our family vineyards,what is the most powerful once with a cab that does not exceed the width of 50 inches? Rhank you.
I don't have much cash flow and been watching a CK model but not sure if I should attempt buying a bigger tractor. These tractor seemed cheaper in price then the DK4210HST I saw last year. I also wanted a tractor that could fit on a 14 or 16 ft dump trailer. Cool video, you did more explaining than my Kubota, Kioti and Mahindra dealers put together.
Thanks for saying that, and for watching. I hope this video helped you with your decision. We also did reviews on other tractors. To the best of our ability anyway. There is a playlist if you want to watch them.
I’ve had a CK3510 and upgraded to the DK5310. The Ck is a rough ride because of the smaller frame. The DK is like riding in a Cadillac. Both great tractors but the Ck was rough on my back.
Have a CK 20 series , love it , no issues so far
Awesome.
Been looking at tractors and im leaning heavily toward Kioti. Deciding between a DK4210SE HST Cab or CK3520SE HST Cab. I have 16 acres but about 11 of it is wooded. Thinking the slightly smaller size might be good for in the woods. A little worried if its to much weight for the lawn but need enough weight and power to clear a long hilly driveway if it snows.
Call Jay and tell him we sent you and he will help you figure out what size is best for you. Thanks for watching.
Jay is a great guy there!
Yes he is, thanks for watching.
I have a Kioti RX7320 power shuttle cab with creeper gear and backhoe that has been amazing. I am very happy with it.
Awesome thanks for the feed back. Thanks for watching
Did you consider a RX66 before buying the RX73? How do you like the power shuttle transmission? I’m torn between the two. Tim in northern TN
I'm in the market currently. Your video is very helpful.
Great to hear!, thanks for watching.
Same here
In the market now to buy a tractor with a cab. We'll go see an LS in the morning and close by is a Kioti dealer.
Awesome let us know what you find.
So far the Kioti is priced higher out the door. We’ll talk to the primary salesman on Monday. Headed to a second dealer location.
We went to a second, larger dealer and a package was put together: Tractor(cab), loader, brush hog, box blade and bale spear. Really worked hard to make this work out for us. Dropped the idea of the CK3520 for the CK2520 instead. We have to crunch the numbers again. The LS Tractor we test drove was a 35hp with a cab/loader, lift is 2,185 lbs. We would get a brush hog and a box blade with it too. I really want to know more about the LS. There’s not much to draw from. People have said the LS is just below the top 3 of JD, Kubota and Kioti.
I mistakenly said CK2520…
Should be CK2620!
Be careful with the backhoe, I've seen two that had the casting fail at the hoe attachment points. Almost impossible to fix the housing after the holes broke out.
Thanks for the heads up. I will keep an eye on that..
My backhoe is not attached to any casting, it has its own framework that attaches to brackets on the tractor. I've heard that the backhoes that attach to the 3pt hitch will break your tractor in half
I think you just found the tractor you wanted and so desperately needed. Love it but I have a huge fear of tractors, as you know my dad was killed on one, but to be fair, the one he was on was really, really old ,did not have a roll over bar, it was a 60's model and it was huge. Yup love the gas tank. So how long and which girl do you think will take control of that beauty. Just Saying Marine
Lol well if we get this tractor, it.might be all three. They all need to learn how to use it anyway... lol
Two kioti's and biggest complaint is parts and OEM upgrades availability on even current models (NX5510) I hope it's just COVID supply chain issues.
Thanks for that information, that is definitely something for me to keep in mind.
Love my little CS2520 subcompac.
That's awesome. How long have you had it?
Got our CS2520 4 days ago and was thrilled until I got down and looked underneath to find out where the pieces of plastic fan blades came from... And the hydraulic filter is very low and unprotected....
Don't be pushing piles of brush or limbs .... Evidently the parts underneath are easily damaged and Kioti doesn't offer any skid plates or belly pan....😮😮😮😢😢
You mentioned the stupid anti spill epa crappy spouts on new fuel cans. The first thing I do when I buy a new can is take of the stupid spout and throw it as far as I can in the woods and use a cap and a funnel Problem solved!!
Lol thanks for watching and for the wonderful idea on how to fix that problem.
Thats a nice rig.
Yes it is, I really enjoyed test driving it.
I may be parcel, because I own one. Buy do you have a massey ferguson dealer near by. Mine is 13 years old and it has had a very hard life, with no problems. Mine is a 1533 witch isn't made now buy I think replaced with 17 hundred series. Was born and raised on farm and ran a lot of tractors up to 265 hp. My tractor is thirty three hp this thing is amazing.it has farmed cleared wood lots to get wood for my saw mill. The work is has done is unbelievable. It might be worth checking them out.
You are not the first person to mention that tractor, unfortunately we don't have a dealer anywhere near us. Thanks for watching and sharing your experience with your tractor.
CK3510SE...absolutely the most horrible buying experience I have ever had. To many things to list that broke, went wrong from the day they delivering it but worst yet was how horrible I was treated by Manchester Motors in Manchester Maine and their Topham Maine location. I must say the price and feature rich drew me in but there's a reason. Now 216 hours, powedcoat is peeling in many areas, fasteners and pins corroding, lacking power. I owned a JD 790 years ago and it was twice the tractor this Kioti is. In the first 100 hours and first year, delivered with three large dents in the rear fender which they did not replace, linked pedal did not work..they took it back twice before they fixed it, ROP Pins would not engage, grapple hoses routed so they were dragging on the ground unprotected, kept stalling and ending up having to repalce the entire seat base...their first attempt to stop it from stalling was to disconnect the seat safety switch and return the tractor to me, total disregard for my safety, a couple months laters tossing error codes and wouldn't start, took them 3 months to figure it out, the first year they had my tractor at their shop more than I had it. Brush hog was delivered without a safety chain (I asked about it and they said they couldnt find one to send with it), Multiple hyd hoses leaking, they didn't seat the tires correctly and both rear tires came off the rim and rimguard ran all ove rmy lawn and garage floor, gray paint peeling off the link arms, very cheep low quality company. I have garaged this piece of junk 100% of the time when not used and when the paint is pealing it's obvious they cheap out on processes. Save a few more dollars and get a tractor for a long standing company who stands hehind their product, JD or Kubota for example. All that said, the good dealership may have made it bearable.
I would care to bet that if you had a good dealership, you would not have experienced any of these issues that you stated. Imo the group at my dealership Stec would have never let that tractor off the lot. Sorry you had this experience, and thanks for sharing. Your example proves how important a good dealership really is when it comes to buying a tractor Thanks for watching and we hope you hit that subscribe button.
Here's a classic example that warranty doesn't mean it fixes itself! That why it important to check out the shop areas and even chat with a shop tech but pay attention to how that business is run! If they care about the shop (neat, clean, and organize) so will be your equipment from that dealership, there is a lot has to done when your equipment arrived new in a shipping crate that can make or break your experience with your equipment! I'm a retired shop tech myself the guys at Anderson kioti dealership got it right and will stand behind their work, the shop shows! Thanks Nate
Great Review Sir ty 😊 🙏👴🐕🚜🤠🕺🏆
Thank you kindly
I love my Kioti 👍👍
Nice Thanks for watching
I just bought a brand new 2022 sc2220 two months ago and spent the last seven weeks at the shop broken.
Kioti? Where are you located?
@@bigbearhomestead Kioti CS2220 North Dakota
What all was broken on your tractor?
@Big Bear Homestead
It did not want to start. The glow plugs did not get hot enough. I'm still waiting to get my tractor back, and it's been over two weeks, and we have winter weather moving in!
So sounds like you’re getting a Kioti lol. I haven’t heard much about them. But some people put them in the same category as the new Mahindras. But sounds like maybe not so much.
We will see lol
Check on insurance for the JUST IN CASE I'm hurt or sick can't make the payment or stolen (BIG DEAL) can be a game changer.
That's true and that's one thing they did mention to us we just forgot to add it in the video.
I've got a dealer near me in NH, but my wife wants a compact machine that she can operate too, and can get in tight spaces. I was looking at closer to 50 hp to get up our steep hills on our homestead, but do I really need it? Price is prohibitive, too.
This question has inspired a video idea thanks and be looking for your answer real soon
Guess I'll have to subsc then 😆 👍Simple, well organized video. Thanks.
Kioti tricked us into thinking that we had a warranty until we had a hydraulic issue. Now it’s sorry but warranty doesn’t cover anything
That sounds more like a bad dealer than kioti, we have had some things break and they fix it under warranty. We have not had any issues. So I am thinking that unfortunately you have a bad dealer.
Yarnma had 10 years warranty
Key word had?...
I know zero about that brand. However, I kinda like what I’m hearing.
I know right.. they just made making our choice a lot harder.
Great video!
Thanks!, hope you hit the subscribe button. Thanks for watching
@@bigbearhomestead Yes and we are heading the Kioti dealer this morning!
Awesome did you get one?
@@bigbearhomestead it wasn’t for me but we ended up getting a 2020 Kubota L4060 TLB. Could not pass it up.
I looking at a kioti ls or mahindra I looking for a tractor with a cab and air around 50 hp
I would steer clear of the mahindra. In our experience there were a lot of issues with the tractor.
Nice
Thanks
Bear,
Just bought 20 acres , 5 open and the rest wooded. Im looking at tractors and am considering Yanmar and Kioti. The only problem is the dealers are at least 70 miles from me. I can save about 8 grand on a 35-39hp tractor by not buying kubota, but Kubota dealer is in town. Any suggestions would be appreciated as I am at the beginning stage of “homesteading”. Should I get a kioti or yanmar despite the distance?
Maybe check to see if the kubota dealer has a shop to service Kioti. Our dealer services all makes and models. Maybe you will get lucky too! Good luck and thanks for watching!
Is the NS series similar to the MX series Kubota?
The NS series offers 45 to 60 horse power with both manual shuttle shift and hydrostatic transmission options. I'm not as familiar with the Kubota tractors, so hopefully that info will help you compare. Thanks for watching!
Do you have an LS Tractor review?
For kioti?
An LS Tractor was one we looked at yesterday. Been trying to find reviews that would indicate whether or not we should even consider that brand.
In the end we crunched the numbers and it turns out we would be spending 4K more for the LS over the finance term vs Kioti! Plus walk away with only 2 implements!
We’re passing on the LS because of that.
Buy the Kubota , ya get what ya pay for! Kind of like 4 wheelers you can buy a Yamaha or ya can buy a CFmoto!
Well so far the kioti, is out preforming any kubota we have used,plus our dealer is awesome. Thanks for watching.
What is the customer discount? I’m seeing 9-10 thousand on those quotes.
The quotes we gave in the video were current at that time, there was no discounts in the quotes.
Holy crap that’s the dealership I’m going to this week to take a look at these tractors! Small world huh.
Tell them we sent you.lol
Absolutely not!!
Not what?
