OK, I'll give a review. I just got my ck last week and have only 15 hrs on it because of the rain so this review will be limited. I would say that my land is hilly and would provide a test for power and traction. For power I think that it was plenty to spin my Landpride 60" 3pt finish mower and pull the tractor up the hill and put a smooth cut on the grass.And that was at 21k rpm you see I was told to keep the rpms down around 2k during the break in period. but later on was told that should actually be around 2500 to 2700 rpm's. So when I pumped it up she really did well. I found that the ck turns better then I had hoped without even using the brakes and cruise control. I also was able to fill the loader with a bunch of wet logs and debris and move up the same hill with the mower still engaged , It wasn't untill I was at the top that I even realized the mower was still going ( I'll be more carefull in the future). So if the HP is 21 or 19 it still has more then enough power then I'll need. The way that the controls are laid out is nice also, everything is right there where you need it ,no reaches. The only thing that is not in a good position is the lock for the two break pedals doesn't clear the Hydro lines for the loader and is harder to get in and out then it should be but I think I can push the lines up abit and it will be fine. All the filters are easy to get to and the sheet metal and control areas are put together smoothly and is easy to run a rag over when your wiping it down. When I was looking into compact tractors I really wanted to go with John Deere because I liked the way they were put together and I could see the quality.But when I saw the prices I thought I better look around . I tested the JD4115,2210,4110 and the Kabota bx2200and 7500, New Holland. But I looked at the specs on the ck and thought that they were as good in some ways and even better in otherways> the problem was that I couldn't see and drive one. So I called Kioti down in N.C. and they told me that a protoype was in Richmond so I went down and checked it out and was sold. This is a solid , well biult machine and the big three should know that there is some serious competition for the compact tractor sale. I can't say how I will feel when I have 215 hrs on this tractor and the big three have a good track record but the CK 20 seemed worth the gamble and if I find anything wrong or defective or have any problems with service I will be on this forum in a heartbeat letting you all know. I hope this was helpful. Jim
