Anyone ever hear of or have experience with Alo's Quicke series FEL's?

I use a Kubota M8200 with the M940 loader(which is basically just a painted and rebadged Quicke Q940). I can't say enough good things about this loader. Implement attachment is the best I have ever used. It is strong and very durable. The loader is actually too much for the M8200. With the rear tires filled and the rear wheel weights you can still lift enough to compress the front tires almost flat and you then have to put it in fwd so you can move. If I were going to buy a tractor of my own I would deffinately buy a Quicke over the factory loader.

Thanks for the reply. I mentioned I was interested in a FEL to a mechanic at my dealer today (I prefer talking to mechanics rather than salesmen about this sort of thing) and he recommended the Quicke. Thing is, I went to their web site and it looks like the smallest one they sell is rated for minimum 40hp. I have a B7500 - I think that would be a bit of a stretch. In any case, I e-mailed Alo to get the facts.
