This mini excavator was a great investment hands down. Never operated an excavator before and only took me a few hours to get the hang of it. I have a total of 15 hours on the machine so far and haven’t had any issues. Just make sure to grease the fittings every now and then. The best thing is that it has Honda engine in it so you know it’s going to last forever. I would absolutely recommend this machine to anyone on the fence. It's well built, easy to operate, and a fraction of the cost of the name brands. Best investment I've made for my property.

The mini excavator has been great! My Dad was needing something that could do the lifting for him. Also, he needed something so he wouldn’t need to use a shovel. This has worked great! We have used it to take out 4 cedar trees. We dig up the roots and took out the trees. The thumb allowed us to load the trailer without having to pick up the tree and limbs by hand, which saved my Dad's back completely. It's been the perfect machine for him, easy to operate and powerful enough for everything we've thrown at it. Couldn't be happier with this purchase.

The Mech Max Mini Excavator showed up well‑packaged and fully assembled, which made things super easy. It’s solidly built, feels durable, and handles yard projects without a problem. Easy to use, fits into tight spots, and saves a ton of time compared to doing it by hand. Honestly, it’s worth the money and a smart alternative to the higher‑priced options out there.

I looked at a lot of mini excavators before settling on the MEC10. I am very happy with the fit and finish and quality of the machine , I bought the auger attachment with it witch works awesome also the 4 piece attachment set - After getting it uncrated it was as simple as putting the choke on , turning the key, and it fired right up. Everything worked exactly as it should straight out of the crate. The auger and the 4 piece attachment set are great additions and the build quality throughout is excellent. Very happy I went with the MEC10.

My son has a small homestead that needs cleaning up and done light construction work. After researching mini excavators, we decided on this one do to features, reliable engine, and price. The delivery carrier dropped the ball causing a delay, but MechTech was beyond helpful in rectifying the situation. The unit is in site, and performing flawlessly. Simply put, this little excavator has been worth every penny. It handles the homestead cleanup and light construction work with ease, the engine is reliable, and the price simply can't be beat. Despite the delivery hiccup, MechMaxx made everything right and I couldn't be happier with the machine.

My mini excavator was ready to start up and go right out of the box. I am very surprised how strong it actually is. I ordered the 4 piece attachment set thinking I would need the ripper to break through the layer of clay but was able to go right through it with the bucket it came with. It is a very well built machine and worth every penny.

This is a follow-up on the MEC10 after 20 hours of heavy use. To this point, it has outperformed my expectations by far. Pros: Fast hydraulics for digging, strong pushing with the dozer blade, everything works, it is cheaper than a tractor backhoe, and it is well-built. Cons: It tracks at 1.5mph, the metal around the seat base gets hot to the touch, and the canopy is too low for a taller operator. None of those are deal-breakers though. For the price, this machine flat out outperforms anything in its class, and after 20 hours of heavy use it hasn't let me down once. Highly recommended.

Extremely happy with this purchase. It took less than a week for shipping, and I picked it up from the transportation warehouse. They kept me updated during this time. After I've been using it for about a month now, I found that the excavator is very well balanced and solid in the one-ton category. It has a solid cast iron counter weight in the back to keep the machine planted and stable even on uneven ground. Digging is smooth and confident with no tipping. For a one-ton excavator at this price, the quality and balance are outstanding. Extremely happy with this purchase.

Very happy with the purchase of my Met Max 10 upon receiving it. I was very well pleased the minute I opened the box I can tell that it was high-quality and I like the rest of those other Chinese mini excavators if you’re looking for a 1 ton excavator, Max has far exceeded your expectations better than a ripper better than AGT hands-down this is your one time buy, you won't need anything else. Top quality right out of the box and worth every penny. Couldn't be happier with it.

After trying to did a hole for an underground water line on my property by hand and a pallet of Ibuprofen later I decided to purchase this awesome little machine to save my back. It showed fairly quickly and in perfect condition. I have already used it to dig a trench to bury an underground Ethernet cable and to smooth out some rough spots in my driveway. This little machine has already paid for itself in the work it's saved my back. It runs strong, sips fuel, and handles everything I ask of it. Worth every penny, I only wish I'd bought one sooner.

The Mechmaxx Mech10 is one awesome little machine. After trying to dig a hole by hand for a water line I had leaking on my property and a pallet of Ibuprofen, I decided to buy this little machine. It arrived in excellent condition and has done everything I have asked it to do so far. I have already dug a trench to bury an underground Ethernet cable and used it to smooth out some rough spots in my driveway. It has done everything I've asked of it and then some. Easily one of the best purchases I've made for my property, strong, reliable, and a huge back-saver. Highly recommend.
