I hope everyone recognizes EA as the most transparent and approachable company with the best customer service in the industry. If not, please try us!
The dream is alive and the struggle is real. Our dedication to designing, creating, and providing you with the best tractor attachments money can buy is ongoing.
We stay going because of increasing demand and we stay behind because demand has grown faster than our ability to build the product...

Good morning to all the EA group. I just wanted to share a little bit about how lead times are working...
I know this is a painful subject but needs to be addressed. Growing pains are real and they hurt both of us. We lose orders and our valued customers are not getting what they need when they need it. There was a day a few years ago when we had a pile of attachments and just hoped we could build the EA brand up to sell them. I will never cut corners to be able to keep up production or make it easy to build. I have been using every attachment we build from many of the best brands from the time my dad would let me on a tractor. Besides the lawn mower when I was about 6 years old, my first start was on a YM135 Yanmar in 1972. I was 8 and loved it. Through the years, I destroyed many attachments and 3 point hitch parts at my dads expense. Now, it is my goal to build the best attachments on the planet so you guys don't have to worry about destroying them. This does not mean they cant be bent or destroyed if not used correctly, but we engineer them to have the best design for the intended use. It is our intention to make them out perform all others and be as affordable as possible.
The sad thing is... We have the equipment and just paid for the old factory we were leasing that is just sitting full of lasers and every thing needed to do twice as much, BUT WHERE DO WE FIND GOOD SKILLED WORKERS THAT WILL WORK. ?? There is little room to train a worker to make YOUR attachments to our standards. It seems no one these days wants to work. We are constantly hiring at Everything Attachments, but between people that can't do the job and won't come to work, that is our biggest challenge. We start no one below 15 dollars per hour and most make 20 plus plus.
I LOVE MADE IN THE USA, BUT IT IS A REAL CHALLENGE. MY GOAL IS TO SAY IT WILL SHIP IN LESS THAN 3 DAYS. We will not quit till we get there. I have been working harder than ever in my life to 6 AM till 4 or 5 PM then go home a think the rest of my day on how to fix this great problem. Thanks to all of our awesome EA CUSTOMERS!!!
