Ross covers wear points and gripes in detail: a cracked rear lens repair, armrest and knob wear, seat/backhoe swivel clearance, diff-lock pedal feel, mid-mount mower height adjustment, loader quick-connect leaks, and the steering spinner. Best for existing BX23S owners or buyers wanting real durability feedback rather than specs or a sales pitch.
Posted by Ross On The Land, an owner sharing personal, hands-on impressions from two years of using his own tractor.
The owner initially said his had not leaked after two years, but later noticed color changes on the fittings and suspected it was starting to leak, planning to clean and monitor it.
The seat itself is very comfortable, but rotating it to use with the backhoe causes the corner to hit and scratch the plastic drink holder, so care is needed.
It works great if you stop first, push down, and turn the wheel until it locks, though the owner wishes the pins had a bit more engagement inside the diff.
A cracked rear lens, worn armrest edges, gummy knobs, and seat rotation scratching the drink holder plastic were the main wear points noted.
