Arrived as described, well packed, fast ship

Seller was great and responsive. Very happy with the purchase and would buy from this seller again..

Showed up and throttle control handle broken off, called customer service. No pickup, left voicemail, no reply after a couple days now, not the end of the world, $25 part, just annoying. Fuel shut off left on from factory, engine flooded. When I started it, shiot all the fuel out exhaust. Only ran for a few seconds which is good because there’s no oil in engine. No indication that oil was drained. I don’t suspect leak because there’s no oil all over machine. Couple scuffs in paint from shipping, not AGTs fault. Digger arm a little crooked (about 2° out of plumb). Hour meter not hooked up, probably from jostling during shipping. Thumb kit includes no direction, but reasonably self explanatory except for 3 way diverting valves. Assume they don’t get used, and the lack of adapters for connecting to H15, but there’s a note on ordering screen that states as such, fittings about $8 plus shipping online Also, thumb kit short (1) M25x100 bolt for affixing upper arm included in kit, so find another or get some spacers to make up slop. Rear engine cover panel one of the bolts was stripped out, so I’ll have to replace that. Track control arms bent at slightly different angles so they don’t line up, quite a bit of play in them so I plan on devising some method of stiffening them up, as well as the foot pedals.

All in all for a sub $6k machine it’s not bad, I’m sure more things will come up once I actually get to use it, as it is still in the shipping pallet, but I’m sure nothing anybody with a reasonable amount of mechanical inclination can’t overcome. FYI, the Majic brand Caterpillar Yellow from tractor supply near identical match to paint (if your machine is yellow).

The H15R mini excavator was as I expected from watching plenty of YouTube. What I didn’t expect was the excellent customer service. My machine had an unexpected and serious issue. When I found this problem I immediately contacted AGT and they had a tech at my house in 4 days. I’m 5hrs from their Chicago warehouse and their tech drove here with all the right tools and all the right knowledge. I major repair was made in less than an hour.
I had a great sales experience, a great pickup experience and the best repair service. Highly recommend purchasing from AGT Industrial.
