870h Review
Model Year: 2008

So far so good! The tractor has excellent performance in power, reliability and features. Although our friends criticized us about our tractor selection, LS N47 has proved its value since the first working hour. After 3 years of operation, we never faced any problem regarding engine, oil leakages, oil consumptions or any kind of suspicious noise. The construction is robust, the Mitsubishi engine is truly a diamond,strong 3-point linkages, the peripheral systems work properly (especially the electro-hydraulic PTO engagement switch which currently I think it is the most fragile system in southern Europe because of dust, extreme heat, etc.) and generally the tractor is impressively powerful (it feels more powerful than 47HP!). We mainly use the tractor in our peach orchards and in most of the hours PTO is engaged.Although the top speed is 28Km/h and we would like it higher (about 40Km/h). I recommend the LS tractors to all farmers that search for reliable,low-cost tractor that has the features/facilities of larger and more expensive manufacturers.

Pros: Power, reliability, features, PTO speeds,driver space.
Cons: Top speed, noise of the reducers.

New Purchase
Model Year: 2011

This tractor is too new to me to rate but so far it seems to be just what I needed. The buying experience was very pleasant and professional and the price was what seemed to me to be a good deal. For 47 horses it lacks the power on hydraulics that I had expected (back hoe and loader), but still gets the job done. Though very user friendly, it's the first tractor I've owned without a tool box. It'll probably be the last tractor I own so I'll have to rate it again after a few years of usage.

Pros: User friendly controls.
Cons: No tool box.
