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.
BOBCAT E27
Pros
- Good power for class: 24.8 HP Kubota engine gives solid performance for a 2‑3 t excavator.
- Higher dump height (~3.3 m): Useful for loading trucks or reaching over obstacles.
- Strong digging force: Buckets have higher digging force (~26.5 kN), good for tough soil
