The WA600 is a powerhouse on the site. The autoloop system and easy access points make daily inspections quick. The cab design reduces strain during long shifts, which I appreciated during extended operations. However, the fuel system occasionally has connection challenges with standard fill options. Nonetheless, its articulation and load capabilities are among the best I've handled.

I’ve operated the Komatsu PC35 for several projects now, and overall, it performs solidly. What I appreciate most is its hydraulic power which enables efficient digging even in challenging soil. The compact size is a plus for tight access sites. On the other hand, I’d say the cab area could benefit from slightly better ergonomics for long shifts. Maintenance hasn’t posed major issues, and its fuel efficiency aligns with similar models I’ve used. All in all, a dependable mid-sized excavator.

I've spent some time behind the controls of the Komatsu PC45MR-5. It's a well-balanced, compact excavator that fits into tight spaces without losing power. The cab is spacious with straightforward controls, plus the air conditioning works exceptionally well. Servicing is simple due to the tilt-over cab design. However, I found the standard pre-cleaner requires regular monitoring in dusty environments. Overall, it meets high expectations for a machine of its class.

I work with the Komatsu PC300. Reliable in any operating conditions. Reliable, durable, and unexpected. Easy joystick control. Excellent visibility. The 1.6 cubic bucket quickly completes all tasks. An additional hydraulic line can be installed, and it works with practically any attachment. Also, it will handle the tonnage. Simple and reliable in use and maintenance.

I build roads with the help of Komatsu PC130. Over three years of operation, the oil cooler (20Y-979-1750) and rubber track (20Y-32-22210) have been replaced. The excavator has proven to be stable and reliable. Even during long working days, the comfortable seat and control panel ensure comfortable work. An excellent piece of equipment that is worth its money for medium and large projects.
