The Kioti CK2610 leads its class in so many areas that I forgot to mention a few things, so I added a more complete list here in the video description. Of all the 25 hp tractors by Kioti, John Deere, and Kubota, I found out that Kioti CK2610 has the...


1. Most gross vehicle weight
2. Highest lift capacity on loader (claims 1835 at pivot pin & I could control a gross weight of 1470 with the dog food, pallet, and forks...which is forward of the pivot pin)
3. high lift capacity at the rear PTO
4. Highest lift height on the front end loader
5. Largest cubic inch engine (100 cc)
6. The most torque at the wheels
7. Highest rear PTO hp rating in its class
8. The most hydraulic flow rate
9. Best front axle linkage design (in terms of damage prevention)
10. Ideal analog dash, which isn't sunlight sensitive
11. Most open floor deck
12. Ideal hand position for operating the front end loader
13. Firm lever controls
14. Comes standard with the Skid Steer quick detach loader
15. Heavy duty design with better layout, steering linkage, and an all steel construction (not the aluminum rear end seen in the John Deere E-series)
16. Most affordable pricing in its class (weight/size/power)
