I have a 2021 ck3510se and love it! Mine is an open station. Had the dealer do the third function for a grapple and two hydraulic remotes in the back. Enjoy it!
thank you for sharing. I have the same model 2019. All I can say is I did the same thing, Shopped Kubota and Kioti and just as you said, for the value, Kioti won hands down. Kubota dealer wanted 15k more with the same options as the Kioti. To me that was crazy. I have 15 acres and this tractor is perfect for what I need. Good luck to you. Been very happy so far.
I am hoping it does everything I need to do. Ran into a couple of issues in the short 10 hours of use, but mostly convenience issues and nothing that affects the use of the tractor. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Not sure what your welding and fabrication skills are, but there is a guy from Canada who has a business doing mods for Kubota tractors named Paul Short and on his site, you might see some items that could make the lightbulb go on. He has several items that although made for Kubota, they may be easy fab for the Kioti. Paul will not make items for anything other than Kubota due to secret arrangements he has with the factory, but you would be looking for ideas anyway. So congratulations on your new purchase and enjoy what this new tractor will do for you.
Great review, I have the Bobcat CT2535, pretty much the same tractor as yours...different color. 120 hours on mine and no real issues as of yet, just a couple minor adjustments. It's been a great tractor, very happy. Good luck
Your shopping experience sounds very similar to mine. New tractor owner and ended up with the Kioti CK3510SE, mostly because I just couldn't find much if any negative reviews on them so it registered as an underdog for me. Few quirks here and there but for the price point, it was hard to beat. Thanks for sharing!
I tried to find negatives, but none were large enough not to purchase the Kioti. Many stated resale value, but I didnt buy it to sell it. Most videos I found were extremely positive. I actually watched a couple of your videos when I was researching/purchasing. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Ouch. That had to be hard. Lol Only had 1 small, isolated problem so far. Just got it back and working on a new video. Thanks for watching. Keep enjoying your tractor.
I have the same size tractor that you have but without the cab what I was surprised is how quiet it is . I've had mine for about a month I only have 10 hours on mine I love it 👍
I actually thought it was pretty loud, but never done an actual sound test against other brands. Only audio on videos. Almost a year with it and just now at 56 hours.. Love it. Thanks for the support!
@@muchgooderish the reason I said is pretty quiet I had an old mode Yamaha 2 cylinder 20 horse it sounded like a jackhammer going off in a steel pipe to me mine is pretty quiet .🚜👍
Nice video! I would suggest that you get hose protection on the 3rd valve hoses that look like they are going to rub raw, right where the one comes out of the box! Looking at JD, Kubota AND Kioti now, for my next tractor!
I will have to take another look at those. I'm not sure they move, but still good advice and insurance. Look hard at the Kioti. Great tractor and lots of features for the money. Hard to find many negatives about them. Thanks for watching.
You sure made the right choice buying this over the Kubota!!! That's not true either. Why? Where I am at the Kiotis cost more and I got printed actual prices and I looked and researched all the brand's and different models in depth. Actual product is more important than dealership although great service is sure nice. In fact Kubota's were cheapest and Kubota has the best resale value, period, and that's just a fact. You have a beautiful machine and no doubt will make you happy but it's orange paint doesn't make it a Kubota and the build quality isn't the same either. I'd compare it to a polaris Sportsman like I bought 9 years ago to a Honda only because Honda was almost twice the cost but your Kioti was actually more. Anyhow, just my opinion and I'd love the cab my used low hour 04' B7800 which I am very happy with doesn't have. Cheers!
Thanks for the reply. All depends on your taste, your dealer, and the price at the time. All are good machines, and not knockin any of them, but we are proud to be part of the tractor community as a whole. Orange, green, blue or red.
Interesting to listen to other peoples shopping experience. I too set out looking for an open station but kept to my plan and that’s what I got. No kioti dealers around so no way I was able to see one. Ended up with a kubota with a backhoe. Pretty much same price you paid. Nice tractor! I love the idea of a cab but it is not right for me. I was already used to the treadle peddle before looking at kubota so that was a non issue. As far as the loader valve placement on the kubota it felt natural to me especially with an armrest on the seat. I also got the r14’s not much use yet.
My lovely wife is very pursuasive. The cab has pros and cons, but nice when its freezing, dusty, or smokin hot outside. We appreciate you watching and commenting.
Hey friends, Pastor Fred here. Just found your channel tonight. I know nothing about this brand if tractor. Thank you for the information, I am hoping to be in the market later in the year, and this information will help. Have a great year, looking forward to seeing what else you put out.
Check consumer reviews comparing Kubota to Kioti and see what consumers have to say. I think you will find if you actually get quoted prices that you will find the one with best resale value which is for obvious reasons otherwise wouldn't be the case is actually cheaper.
Like your video. I also looked at all the other brands, either they didn’t offer what I was looking for, or if they did, they were quite a bit more expensive. I kept coming back to the Kioti. Have a great day…
Looks like a great machines. I appreciated all the real reasons. :) I’ve been tractor shopping for a while. We’ve done some videos about it over on our channel. I’ve been impressed with everything I’ve seen and heard about the CK3519SE. - Chad
Thank you. I have actually ran across your channel. Specifically episode #188 where you were at the Kioti dealer. We havent gotten to use our Kioti much yet. Been to wet. But we have high expectations.
How does hold up? Im looking at this tractor or the john deere 3033R or 3039R, but the price is my main concern? I will be using to plow snow, but was wondering how she held up.
So far it has held up great for me. Dealer support is a big factor regardless of what brand you choose. Kioti for sure gets you more for less. i got the cab and 35hp for what a JD wanted without a cab. Hard to find really bad reviews on Kioti.
@@muchgooderish yea, i have a 1025R right now and need something bigger and faster with a cab, the only that bugs me on the kioti is the seat, there feels like there is absolutely no cusion what so ever. but i don’t think paying 10,000 extra for a seat is worth it 😅
Kubota quoted me $30k for a l3901 and trailer package. I went on my day off and they were the total is $43k including the insurance but tax and fees are not included. I got up and left quickly.
Always important to trust your dealer. $43k is way to much for that combination, in my mind at least. Prices are high now since materials are at a premium. Thanks for watching.
It definitely is. Even though I sometimes wish I could feel the breeze from an open station, the AC, heat, radio, and lack of dust/debris from the cab cannot be beat..
Yes, it does open. I guess that is a key feature that I inadvertently skipped over. There is a handle at the bottom and the entire window swings open. it is hinged at the top. Appreciate you watching and commenting.
Looks nice! So, what was the price on this beauty??? I am looking at a non-cab version of either the CX2510HST , CK2610HST or CK3510HST. Looking at a package deal, and just curious how much the cab version is.
Right around $32k without box blade, grapple, 3rd function, pallet forks, and rim guard. Also have to add in tax and insurance. Cabs add about $6k -$7k to the price of the ones you are looking at. We appreciate you watching and commenting.
@@muchgooderish OMG! 5:23 Couldn't beat the value of Kioti. What were you thinking? RK 37hp cab w/loader 28K for a TYM. You could have a 55 HP RK for $2000 more. 20 more hp for $2000 more.
@@raymond3803 Sometimes you get what you pay for. Dealer is also 10 minutes away and has brought local business to my business.. Win, win. Kioti still has more options for the money than TYM. My opinion of course. And not a TYM dealer anywhere close. Would have to travel HOURS for any warranty or service work. Time is money.
@@raymond3803 I read your other reply, and its nonsense.. After I purchased my tractor I went back and said "if you hear of anyone needing work, throw them my card", and thats what they did, AFTER I made the video. No corruption, no deals, just me askin for some work to grow my business. Seems you have deeper issues than me thinkin I got a good value. Stay true to TYM. They will be happy to have you.
We are in Indiana. I didnt buy a "package" but I did buy the grapple and forks. Total invoice was a hair over $39k, and that included rim guard, 3rd function, 3rd function install, grapple, forks, bucket, cab, loader. By far the largest expense was the cab, but it has been worth it so far. Heat is nice. AC and lack of dust will be nice as well.
@@muchgooderish Thank you so much for the quick and thorough response. I think this would make a great topic for a video that would likely get a ton of views. Go over all the attachments, why you chose them...cost...all of it. Food for thought...
Good video, just bought the same tractor in the 40hp. CK4010se with a cab. I paid $29,500 for it and $1400 for the 3rd functioned installed. Does your loader stick hit the fender when you dump the bucket? Mine does lol and my suspension seat is very squeaky lol I weigh 190lb
I haven't noticed mine hitting the fender, and so far my seat doesn't squeak. I am a tickle under 200lbs. I do love the tractor. Great quality and options for the price point. Thanks for watching.
What made you get the ck4010 over the ck3510 or ck2610. I'm looking for a tractor and not sure what would be best for me. I want a grapple as well so will need to add the 3rd function.
Well if I had the money I would of got a Kubota Grand L L3560. Grand Ls are best in class by far but you pay for it. Really want I wanted and needed was a LX2610. After looking at them the cab was super loud inside and the specs weren’t that great. I looked at the Kioti CK series and they were a great bang for the buck. All CKs are the same size frame and I always get the largest and most HP you can. So 4010 it was. Looked at the CK2610 but the gearing was very low and didn’t like it. The CK4010se cab was the best choice for us. It is a great tractor and some things on it are not perfect and the price reflects that. The Kubota LX and CK were about the same price. CK is a lot more tractor than the LX. The L3560 Kubota was $10K more but a lot nicer. The CK is a great tractor and don’t regret the decision
For me, when I talked to my dealer about my needs, he said the additional money for the 40 would be a waste. He said the 35 would do all I needed and more. It is based on needs, and everyone's needs are different.
Sounds like Kubota sales are feeling Kioti taking away market share so they are bitter and quick to down Kioti! Plus there was a law suit years back from Kubota towards Kioti due to such similarities and the orange paint along with ppl thinking they were one in the same. I’ve been researching all brands and have settled on Kioti over all the rest. Price, features, and build quality are all total blow away the others! Outstanding review!
The lawsuit is why Kioti buckets are black and kubotas are orange. Lol I still feel that dollar for dollar Kioti is still the best deal with the options you get. We appreciate you watching.
Bought my CK3510SE just about a year ago. In 135 miles it's been back to the dealer 5 times. Been the most horrible purchase ever. I have a detailed history if you are really thinking of buying one I can share it. Kioti is junk. I very much hope you don't go through what I've been though in a short year. Good luck. So wish I went with the L3901 or 3R.
Sorry to hear about your experience. From what I have seen and heard, your situation is rare. Most issues are minor and can be found on any brand. Good Luck. Thanks for watching.
@Charles Reed- I’d like to know more of your story if you’re willing to share. I’ve been researching tractors for quite a while and really like both the Kioti and RK.
Upgrade upsell. Dawg way to much tractor for ur inexperience and lack of acreage. You need 50 acres minimum for a massive tractor that size boo boss up 20 to 26 hp all u need belly mower
Yes a "mear pittance " to pay ; just 21$ to pay--EVERY DAY 365 for Seven LONG YEARS. Thats only 85$ an hour for a average "work year" hours @ 72 hrs per year. Pure "luxury around the Ranch" == Priceless!
You will never regret getting the cab, I have a kioti nx4510 cab and would never buy a tractor without one.
No regrets so far, except I am running thin on projects to do with it on our current land..
Good choice. I bought two Kioti tractors last year. RX7320 and CX2510. So far no problems at all. Both are cab models. No bugs or dirt, heat and air.
