My opinion is that they’re pretty useless compared to a front end loader.

Here's my reasons for investigating this:

I cannot use my 60-inch mid-mount mower with a FEL attached.

A front end loader takes up a lot of space in storage.

This will apparently carry as much (or more) than a FEL

A FEL is over $6000 for my tractor. This is $1800

The front end loader is $6000 more useful that that carryall. A good wagon will carry even more than both.

Its not a PTO bucket. Its a 3PH bucket. Unless I am missing something and it connects to the PTO somehow????

But I agree.....Not nearly as handy as a FEL. Cant scoop or dump with any height.

With a front loader you can fill a dump wagon, then hitch it up and go dump it. I'd love to see someone try to fill a carry-all with their loader. LOL

I suppose it would be handy for some, but I think it would be in the way and not worth the money.

So no FEL.... So dump wagon would be more practical.... Issue still be same, you have to manually load what ever you are hauling and wagon is easier to connect/disconnect than a 3PH hitch item and there is still the length issue for storage if you leave it on...
