Reviews
Location: Spirit Lake, Idaho
Length of Ownership: 1yearOrLonger
Usage: Weekly
I purchased the 5045E in August 2018 for off-grid living and it has been a joy to own and use around our 20 acres in the Panhandle Idaho area.
Location: Heyworth, il
Length of Ownership: 1yearOrLonger
Usage: Weekly
I have a little over 100 hours on my 5045e. For my 10 acre farm, this tractor as I had hoped, offers functionality, simplicity and utility in mowing, tilling, and with the loader, many other tasks around the property including, snow removal, dirt/gravel moving. I looked at many other models, and this one meets my needs without hydrostatic transmissions... this tractor really combines comfort, ease of use and serviceability in a very affordable package.
Pros:
- visibility
- economical
Cons:
- perminant loader attachment
Location: telangana,manuguru
