I can't really tell you anything about the Wally and I am not trying to sway your decision but Rosseel's Farm and Garden in MI has some really good prices on Woods backhoes. Might save yourself some money if you check them out. I can get you a link if you want. I don't know where you are located but I am having mine shipped to me for just a little more than what it would cost me to go pick it up myself not including my time.
Just to give you an idea of price, the BH80X with 18" bucket is $5200. The subframe is an additional $950.
Wallace also quoted me a really good price on a BH80X if you are closer to him. I am a good ways from him though and the shipping was going to cost me more.
There are some threads in the attachments forum on backhoes if you do a search.

Have you ever removed a stump with a backhoe? ... and how big are these stumps?
If your only job is a few stumps and then you're done with the hoe.. I recommend you rent the right machine for the job.
I had a 7' backhoe and tried to use it to remove a few good sized stumps.. not good, I spent more time with a sawzall and a pick than I did working the hoe. I now have a backhoe that can do the job fairly easy.. but I have lots more jobs for it than a weeks worth of work.
Buying a new backhoe for $4-7k,(a 3pt backhoe isn't the right tool for stumps BTW) then using it for a few stumps and selling it, vs renting the right machine. Which will cost less after all is said and done?
