You have so many models with different options that seems confusing (which i totally enjoy) that all i have to do is print out the different models and easily compare them. Then of course the new models come out and then i have to start over again. I find it totally interesting.
Would it be possible to get a dumbed down version of a lot of these videos? I don't really need to see that they can all dig a hole. I'm really more interested in EXACTLY what is different from model to model. They all tend to start off good, then next thing I know the camera person is chasing you around to a half dozen other models to follow up on one topic, then we never get back to where we started...it's all kind of stream of consciousness. The website is helpful, but there's so many models now, it's almost impossible to remember the specs on one machine, then open up another machine and try to remember the previous specs in order to compare. There has to be a way to better explain exactly what's different between all these things. As an example, I've watched all the videos many times, not sure how many I watched before I saw that the retractable tracks version also includes a blade that is further from the tracks. Best I can tell that's the only time it's ever been mentioned, and I haven't seen it on the website specs, that I can recall. Bottom line, I'm sold at this point. Don't need why we're better, Chinese this and that, import yourself or not because of blah blah blah. Just give me a concise way to tell model A has this; model B includes everything A has plus it gets this, etc, etc... This video in particular, has a great title and starts off hopeful, then it's just 20 random details on a half dozen random models that I can't see how anyone can digest. It could certainly just be me though...
Great video. I’m getting a BH24D from your CT dealer this week. Just wondering if you offer a add on / bolt on counter weight for the BH24D like the gas models?
Can you tell me if you use American compatible parts? Would brands like Eaton and Parker fit these machines? If a drive motor or pump goes out, I’d like to be able to source a new part. Thank you and great video.
Do you no where I can get a hydraulic thumb for my kc13 just got it don't no much about where to buy stuff for it love your videos keep up the good work
Look around buyers, these are CRAZY overpriced.. the first one is a 1 ton and its priced at $10k those are double what others are selling them for. The Power-X Model PX10-L with 13" bucket is a good example with steel ROPS.
Our base model ZH12G equivalent to the px10-L has a stronger reinforced boom and blade as well as parker pumps. We also offer a year powertrain warranty and a network of dealers for repairs or parts.
These guys. Geesh, you're buying these from Chicago and slapping your own logo on them, then marking them up $3800 more than what I can buy it for retail myself from Chicago.
We've never sugar coated it, we make it known we purchase from a supplier in china then heavily modify and customize our units here in Middleburg, Pennsylvania
@@groundhogequipment At least Nick is honest. Kymron, who also buys Chinese minis, mods them, rebadges them, triples the price - while calling Chinese minis "Chinese junk". 🤡
I'm just starting to research these, but it seems it might be worth it to have someone like GroundHog modify them and fix the flaws and assembly problems before you get them.
@@twc9000 I'm coming up on 2 yrs since I got my ZH20D and am thinking of up-grading to a new machine. Had I waited 1 more year I would have gotten the up-grades as standard. 2 speed travel as single speed is beyond slow. Longer reach and higher dump, oh yea. I would go with the swing boom this time around as easier to see the bucket w/o looking around the boom. Other than my up-grade issues I really am very happy with my Groundhog.

Good information. I like how you point out the differences in several of them.
Thanks for watching!

We plan on doing a heavy equipment basics video this year
No offense but to the layman you made ordering from china seem easy in comparison lol. @@groundhogequipment
I completely agree that it is very confusing to compare one model to another. To bad you don't have printed comparison specks.
Great video Nick!
Great video. I’m getting a BH24D from your CT dealer this week. Just wondering if you offer a add on / bolt on counter weight for the BH24D like the gas models?
We do not at the time, but we have the counterweights made locally so if you really needed one, we could probably work something out for you.
Can you tell me if you use American compatible parts? Would brands like Eaton and Parker fit these machines? If a drive motor or pump goes out, I’d like to be able to source a new part. Thank you and great video.
Yes they do, most of our machines come with eaton and parker parts.
Do you all deliver by any chance?

You don't really understand what you're getting with these machines VS those "others" and it's apparent.

Bro, wait until you find out what most “American” equipment brands do…
