Read what TractorByNet members think about the Steiner STEINER420 Subcompact Tractor
Steiner 4x4 Tractor Model 420
Model Year: 1995
Best tractor ever, built strong (in USA) 20 years old and going strong and should last 20 more years without any problem!
Pros: Heavy duty tractor.
Cons: None.

Buy a Ventrac
Model Year: 1990
Okay, so I'm a bit biased. My wife's family deals in Steiners and Ventracs. I own this one since there are more older used Steiners, hence I can afford one! If you're looking for a compact tractor that can do many things well, this is a great machine. It's even better if your dealer is near by and you can rent attachments you only need on occasion like a trencher or power box rake.
Pros: 4 wheel drive, articulated frame, front mounted attachments.
Cons: Up front price, hand controls take some getting used to.

Steiner Restoration
Model Year: 1996
I purchased the machine which had been used in a commercial application and restored it back to original. I put on new tires, a new carburetor, a new gas line, all new fluids, all new filters, a new air cleaner, new decals, new paint and took the head off the Kubota engine and re-did the valves. This unit articulates and oscillates.
Pros: Agility, traction, power, reliability, ease of operation and attachments.
Cons: None.
