"Broken feedback rod, replaced stop solenoid, 4 way flashers no longer work. Otherwise no other problems encountered. Would recommend this tractor to anyone. "
"My grandfather bought the tractor sometime in 2004 and he just recently bought a new BX25D. So he gave me the 15. It performs all the tasks I ask it to do. Anything from mowing a customers yard to grading my road or a yard and even hanging a deer to gut it. Well built. Electrics could be better and it shakes a lot because its a 2 cylinder. Overall great machine and never letting it go!"
"I have owned and used all and I mean all American brand tractors in this size. I do not take opinion without lived with others."
"The purchase of this tiny tractor was a major step down (in size only) for me. I had a Ferguson 275 Diesel that I used here on the farm. After a stroke I was not able to farm the land any more and my wife wanted a simple lawn mower. The Kubota BX-1500 is much more than a simple lawn mower and it performs great at everything we ask of it. I use a 48" rotary tiller, a small disk, and a small single bottom plow in our veggie garden. My wife mows 2 acres of grass and loves it."
"I've had the tractor for over 8 years and worked it hard the first 4 years while landscaping the yard and removing a corral on the property. I snapped off the steering pivot stop the first year I had it so have been careful not to over steer when turning. You learn quickly to keep the load in the bucket as low to the ground as possible for stability. I have a front bucket and a 5' blade on back, and added a PHD (post hole digger) accessory which I used to remove the railroad ties used as posts from the corral. This really tested the capabilities of the tractor, but with enough time, I was able to complete the job. The tractor was very dependable once it was running. In the 8 years of ownership, I have replaced the hour meter and just added a low voltage relay on the starter circuitry because for the last 2 years the tractor was very temperamental when starting. The solution to install the relay was found here at the TractorByNet website. Thanks. So far the relay solution has solved the problem. The tractor is always stored indoors. I would recommend this tractor."
"An awesome machine so far! Only mowed & towed as of yet. Should have a tach. Hoping for a loader in not too distant future. My first experience w/diesel & 4WD."
"I bought this tractor with the 54" belly mower and a 5' woods blade for the 3 point thinking I was going to mow and move snow. I then purchased the FEL to move 20 dump truck loads of fill dirt. This tractor is amazing for its size, it has done everything I have asked it to do."
"The BX1500 is the smallest compact BX for its size the BX1500 has been my garden tiller dirt mover, brush mower.. The weight of the tractor will still let you maintain your yard without causing ruts. The FEL was great for land scape duties, hauling rock and moving dirt. The BX1500 is a great machine if you are looking to step up from the normal garden tractor, but don't let the size fool you it packs a lot of power for the size."
"Nice tractor. The 15hp diesel is a great little engine and the tractor has done everything I've asked of it. I mow, use a 5ft back blade, a homebuilt 4ft landscape rake, a homebuilt 4ft dethatcher, and use the LA181 loader to clear our 150' asphalt driveway in the winter. Also use for light landscaping around the house. Although the 15hp has gotten everything done I have had to push it at times. If I had it to do over again I would go w/ at least a 20hp tractor for my needs. If you only mow and do light loader work then it's a great tractor."
"Bought the 1500 with main purpose of blowing snow (Northern NH). Fit and finish of the machine are great (but that's what I expected). I wish I had bought a larger tractor because the 1500 just doesn't have quite enough oomph to properly power the 48 inch (2850)snowblower. For powder snow, no problem at all, however the spring snows bog it down quite a bit (not talking about slush here cause nothing works on slush except a blade). I added a back box on the 3 point to carry a salt/sand mix to spread as well as to give a bit more weight on the rear wheels. Other than that it cuts grass well, hauls stuff around that needs hauling etc... I do not have a front loader on it. "
