Best mini excavator?

I’ve been hearing more buzz about Takeuchi lately, too. Has anyone here tried one out? Wondering how they stack up next to Kubota or CAT in real job site conditions.
 
'ive run a takeuchi a few times, and honestly, they hold their own-smooth controls and plenty of power for tight spots.

I’ve used quite a few mini excavators, but the Bobcat E165 really impressed me. It was super easy to handle and packed the power needed for trenching tough ground and lifting heavy loads in tight spaces.

What about you? Which mini excavator has wowed you, and what accessories do you consider must-haves?

The Bobcat E165 sounds like a beast in compact form! I've heard great things about its agility and power-to-size ratio too.....for me, the Komatsu PC55 hasb een a solid performer on some tight job sites... love its versatility! As for must-haves, I think a thumb attachment and hydraulic breaker are game-changers for expanding its capabilities. What do you think are the E165's standout features compared to other minis youve worked with?
