What ever you get, get high-flow hydraulics. High-flow makes the machine more useful on the attachments you can use and adds to the resale value.

I have a 2024 TL750 that I bought new in December of 2024. It is the low flow model. I have put 180hrs on it moving dirt and cutting brush with a CDI Tree Reaper. Only issue I have had is the loader stopped lifting one time. The dealer adjusted the bypass valve and it fixed it. Overall very happy with the machine. Really like the roll up door! It runs the tree reaper just fine with low flow but at times I wish it had high flow for a little extra power. Under heavy cutting it does bog the hydraulics a bit. I would not run a drum mulcher with it but the high flow should be capable of running one without issues.
Now for the CDI Tree Reaper, that thing is a beast! It can cut small trees, brush, and grass. I no longer use my Land Pride RCR1872 brush cutter and it is for sale. The CDI Tree reaper is built like a tank. I was cutting around an old dumping site that had a a lot of trash and hit a large car alternator. The Tree Reaper shot the thing out about 10 foot. I thought for sure I broke something but it didn’t even care!
I also have a Kioti NS4710CH cab tractor that I bought new 2 years ago. It has right at 800 hrs on it. That is some of the reason I bought the TL750. I have the backhoe attachment for it as well. I have used the tractor for moving dirt, backhoe work, brush cutting, grapple work, land plane leveling, tilling, mixing concrete, and moving construction materials. Most of the problems that I have had with the tractor was from inadequate dealer prep of the machine. Many things not properly tightened when the dealer put it together. Owner of the dealer admitted that a worker was not doing what was supposed to be done and he resolved the issues with the worker and the tractor. The air conditioning compressor has locked up twice and replaced under warranty. The condenser is very sensitive to dust and debris getting into it and running hot causing the compressor to fail. I have since bought an air comb and clean it out religiously and have had no further issues. The tractor was throwing codes for the DPF temp sensor being low that was preventing it from doing a regen. It ended up being a dirty fuel filter that was preventing the machine from getting enough fuel to burn hot enough. I was also doing a lot of low rpm work at the time. These machine really like to be run at higher rpms which is the case with most machines with emissions crap on them.
I will say I push my machines hard and sometimes push them too hard! If it can be broke, I can break it! These machines are built just as good as any other machines I have owned and operated. Kioti really is built just as good as Kubota, John Deere, Bobcat, and all the major brands. The biggest problem I have is the lack of resources for them. There is not a lot of online parts, parts diagrams, schematics, and such. I really wish Kioti would just put this stuff on their website like other manufacturers do. As far as parts go, yes there can be longer lead times for some things. Kioti just doesn’t have the parts network established in the US like other major brands have. Filters and such are readily available though. Really this is the biggest edge Kubota, John Deere, and Cat has on Kioti. Those brands usually have large dealership networks backing them. Most of them have a large selection of parts on hand. If you have a strong dealer near you I wouldn’t hesitate.

Thanks for taking the time to reply and for the great information. I have the same 2024 TL750 and was looking for someone I could bounce things off of. I wish I could send you a private message but I don't see that option. Maybe we don't have enough post to do that. I would love to be able to talk more about our skid steers with you.
