Tried out the PC45MR-5 the other day. First thing I noticed was how accessible all service points are, which makes daily checks a breeze. The engine runs quietly and powerful even at low idle, ideal for noise-sensitive areas. The seat is really comfortable, though I wish the armrests were a tad more adjustable. The visibility is fantastic, which helps maneuvering in tight spaces. It may be slightly overkill for smaller projects, but it handles demanding tasks very well.

I've operated the Komatsu PC35 recently, focusing on its functionality and handling. One thing I noticed is that the hydraulics are quite solid, providing smooth operation. However, the fuel efficiency could see improvement. It takes a bit more effort to maintain control precision during extended use, in my opinion. Overall, a pretty reliable machine for its purpose.

Used the PC78 recently, and the auxiliary hydraulics were quite effective for my attachments. Transitioning between controls was seamless due to the pattern control change valve. Yet, I noticed some wear on the cutting edges, which might require attention soon.

We use the PC210 on site mostly for digging and material handling. Power's not an issue, engine holds up well under steady use. I did notice the fuel economy isn't always what I'd want, especially if running heavy. Maintenance is fine, parts aren't hard to get where I am, just the usual Komatsu stuff. Hard to fault how it operates, joysticks and pedals all respond right away. Cab could use better air flow though. No real downtime issues yet. Solid all rounder, not perfect but gets it done.

I work with the Komatsu PC210! The excavator is really awesome! Compared to the 200 or the 220 (which I also use), it only falls behind in terms of maneuverability, but it works significantly faster! The width is perfect, easy transportation anywhere and everywhere. I highly recommend it, if you are considering a Komatsu, pay attention to this one.

Small, productive, maneuverable, quite powerful for its size. The cabin is quite comfortable, there is enough space to move around, there is good visibility. We use various attachments in work, mostly a bucket, occasionally depending on the job, a hydraulic hammer or grapples.

There are a few positives and a few negatives, nothing special about this machine. Among the positives, the cabin is comfortable, and the visibility is normal. The negatives are the inconvenient placement of various service components, such as filters and drain valves, with inconvenient access. In short, it doesn't perform very well, but in terms of reliability, the machine is good, there are practically no breakdowns with timely maintenance, of course.

I would like to mention the high productivity, easy maintenance, and mega powerful engine! The best assistant for construction work. We have been using it since 2014 and have no thoughts of changing to something new.

I am comparing it with the JCB (as I have worked with both). The first thing that catches my eye is that the Komatsu is noticeably slower and weaker. Furthermore, if you are doing the maintenance yourself instead of sending it to a service center (as everyone has different financial possibilities), it is safe to say that it is not the most convenient when it comes to the gearbox and engine, which consequently makes oil changes difficult and nerve-wracking. Considering all aspects, including the comfort inside the cabin, it is clear that they have cut corners in many areas. My conclusion is that you can still work with it, but if you have a choice, I would prefer the JCB.
