KUBOTA U22-3
Pros
- Small footprint and tight turning radius make it ideal for urban jobs, landscaping, and utility trenches.
- 2.39 m digging depth and 3.88 m reach cover most common mini‑excavation tasks.
- 36 L/min auxiliary flow supports small attachments (auger, breaker, etc.)
SANY SY38U Pro
Pros
- Compact yet capable: Good sized machine for urban jobs and landscaping, similar to other mini excavators in the 3.8 t class.
- 28 hp power: Enough power for typical digging, trenching, and utility work.
- Works well in tight spaces: Likely zero/minimum tail swing and rubber tracks help with maneuverability.
