I bought a 21 4820R with BL200 loader last March. I love it. I've got 83 hours on it. The only issue was a fuel leak on the fuel pump and my dealer quickly repaired it under warranty. I've picked up several large logs (approximately 2000#) that were near the max capacity of the loader with a grapple (400-500#). At some point, I would like to connect a gauge and verify the pressures. I've bushed hogged a lot using a 6' MD rotary cutter. I also have the BH200 backhoe that I've only used a little, but will be trenching for a long water line next month. I looked at several brands, but chose the Branson based on specifications, the dealer and price.
