Gents and ladies, any experience with Brandon tractors?

I have a small piece of land and need a do it all type tool.  I like that I can buy one of their small tractors that will run a small loader and backhoe and also run a belly mower for general mowing, etc.

a larger tractor would be overkill.  So right now it is either buy a riding mower and an older larger tractor with a loader or buy something like this that is all in one.

any advice or experience is appreciated.

this company?  http://www.bransontractor.com/Home.aspx

Ive never heard of them..  There are 3 dealers within 50 miles of me though.  Looks like a good value for an import.


Kubota is probably a better machine and definitely easier to re-sell.  You need to compare the price difference as well as the parts prices and availability before making a decision.

Agree completely, found a lot of good reviews of the Branson on some of the boards but mostly for the larger units.

the Kunitz are made right around the corner from me, plan on checking both out.  I like the size of the Branson, seems to be solidly in between the two smallest jubilant sizes.

They are heavier then JD & Kubota in the same horse tractor which means better implement  work especially the front end loader.
