Branson 2810 Good Value
Model Year: 2000
Tractor is not used a lot, but is reliable and has always done what I wanted. You just take your time and don't expect 50 hp from 28. I bought the tractor partially because of weight and the transmission (12 speed forward & back). When I compared tractors and their weight, there was 1200 more pounds of something there. I use front loader, box blade,blade,5 ft shredder,& post hole digger. Have had very little trouble, Power Steering pump and tank (replace plastic with factory metal tank), clutch pedal spring broke,1 head light & Back light broke.
Pros: Operation easy; Power adequate; Transmission ranges.
Cons: Dealer Support; Literature availability; Parts availabilty.
