I really wanted a thumb on mine, the local dealer showed me how they welded on a, to me, a cheap thumb on the Kioti backhoe. Got the dealer I bought my CK35 from to put on a 7ft Woods with a nice 7 position thumb. Knew I would use that thumb a lot. Been happy with the Woods.

I have a CK20 (s) HST with a Kioti kb 2465 backhoe. The tractor has about 600 hours on it and I estimate about 60 % of that time is with backhoe attached and digging stumps. The backhoe has operated perfectly and has not even endured a leak. Kioti has an excellent backhoe as far as I am concerned.

I have a CK30 with the Kioti BH. It's great, no complaints. It has more than enough power for the size of the tractor. In fact, it seems to almost be suitable for a bigger tractor. My only complaint would be that there is no cup holder on the operator platform!

I have a CK30hst with the Kioti 2375 bh. One minor fix to one of the valves under warranty and no more problems. It works well and has a good bit of power, well reasonable for it's size. I can mount or unmount it under ten minutes. Kioti's current version, in the same size, is the 2475. It has a curved boom and the valve system is a newer and I heard a better design. The Woods and Rhino bh are also good products. Maybe something else to look at for comparisons. From what others have mentioned, the Woods subframe stays on the tractor, Kioti's comes off with the bh, and I have never seen the Rhino mounting. The Woods BH80x, 8 footer, would fit a CK25 to 35. They have a valve which lets you adjust the flow to the swing and a thumb option. Overall, I'm happy with my Kioti bh.

=======================================

The thumb option is also available for a Kioti backhoe. Check out the selection available from Michigan Iron. He engineers and fabricates these and many other handy gadgets himself. I have three things he designed and they are all excellent. Here's a couple of thumb options for a Kioti backhoe from Michigan Iron and he ships anywhere.

I have a 2465 on my ck20 gear tractor, the backhoe has ALOT of power for it's size. It has no problem lifting the frontend in the air if you are not careful.
I have not tried any other backhoe so I can't comment on them, but I am well satisfied with the one I have.

I have the KB2365 on my CK20HST, couldn't be happier with it! :thumbsup:
I have to strap my tractor to a tree or my pickup truck when digging large stumps so that I don't pull the tractor right into the hole when digging.

In case your wondering, that stump did NOT win!
