Read articles →This is a long-term owner's real-world rundown of the BX23S backhoe, not a dealer walkaround: it shows the pinless clamshell mounting/hookup process, running a root ripper attachment to tear out cedar stumps, digging a building foundation, and honest gripes like outriggers slowly settling over time. He also weighs backhoe-vs-excavator tradeoffs and whether the backhoe is worth the added cost. Good for buyers deciding if this subcompact backhoe fits stump-clearing, trail-building, or rocky-property work.
