The Most Versatile Machine Ever Made - JCB 1CXT

That back hoe looks weak.

BUT, if you can use two machines at a time, you can do more in less total time. Every job is different and time is still money. Yeah, I don't like the front entry. often the implement is in the way of entry or exit. You should get one of these delivered & use on the farm. what you see!!

It is a good concept, but not great at practical use. Fact is most jobs you only need skidsteer...when you need backhoe, you really need large excavator with long reach. They don't have a good reputation of reliability and not many places fix them. New price is high and used resale price is low. My 2 cents is don't mess around and just go with 'tried and true' skidsteer + mini-ex. From resale standpoint and a good brand, you're losing less money with 2 dedicated machines.

It’s a backhoe, with a greater ability to hit things backing up. Including people.
Backhoe attachments on skid steers have been around for decades. They suck.

Leg room 👎

I keep wishing my backhoe could fill my front end loader for easier movement of material. I guess that would be a s t r e t c h for one machine to do.

The JCB tela-skid thing was one of the most underwhelming pice of equipment I’ve ever used. Awkward, slow and cumbersome to get in and out of.

NEEDED TO HEAR ABOUT BUCKETS REACH FRONT AN BACK LOADING A DUMP TRUCK

It’s not a skid steer don’t try spin it into one.The engine is in the front making it a dozer platform with a backhoe on it.Skid steer platform uses a rear engine that is ballast weight for the loader arms that connect to the rear by the engine creating stability and natural level

Wouldn't a backhoe attachment for a skid be a way better option? That thing seems like it would be mediocre as an excavator and mediocre as a skid loader.

There is a reason why nobody has copied the design

JCB fantastic at making machines you don’t really need…..

The tool intended to do a little bit of everything rarely does any one thing well. Just sayin...

Am i having a stroke or was the focus constantly reconfiguring and shaking the footage

OK nice but serviceability is big in that one component goes down the hole thing got to go also Didn't mention if you could detach hoe say for storage or servicing witch we know is a big big thing to have especially if using hard as we do lol yes there are ma Hines for that but boys will be boys.

That is a thing of beauty.

Looking at current prices they're going for nearly $100k It's so cool but at that price you could get 2 good used steers and a mini excavator, and when not if it goes down, the parts will have to be ordered in. I love the idea, but the execution doesn't seem cost effective.

So it’s a skid steer with a backhoe on it. Ok for anything while sucking for everything. Maybe landscaping companies would like it. Good luck when it breaks or blows a hose

very expensive and needs more hydraulic flow for that money only 23gpm can't run most attachments considered the size.
$100,000-120,000

I never knew a skid steer and a backhoe had a child. It is interesting I wonder if other makers like Case or Komatsu will adopt this new style of machine or if this machine is just a gimmick.

Scratched the hell out of that nuckle....

More versatile than the Huddig 1370?

Good little all rounder

This is just a backhoe that is heavier and way slower and tears up turf. It looks cool and is better than a skid steer but an articulating loader will work circles around this and any skid steer. Europe has USA way beat with what they use compared to the ol tired skid steer or pto twist your back around to use implements.

They are neat machines and a good price point. My concerns are all of the exposed hydraulic lines, small thin linkages and other noticeable weak points. I see a lot of repairs and downtime in its future and due to that reason, the cost essentially goes way up.

A slightly used backhoe and an almost new skidsteer would be roughly the same price and you have a "backup" machine for when you need to go do some work. Also a backhoe is way heavier and can drive down the road negating the need to transport it.

This machine would also not be a good option for any larger work than landscaping or other small work. Leaving you out of most of the market.

These “do it all with one machine” never work…no matter which industry. They’re a master of none. I’ve been burned before. Believe me, in 5 years, this machine, and all its replacement parts will be discontinued, and impossible to find. Pass.

Don't break it! They are impossible to work on. 😂 These are nothing like a skidsteer. No comparison.

Thanks for the information, it was a nice business opportunity that this company allowed you to give everyone a demonstration about functionalities of the machine, maybe the next time perhaps you could give everyone a live demonstration of how it works under pressure. Like digging into the dirt, or lifting some heavy objects, muddy traction, you know what I'm saying ?

No auto quick hitch shame on them

We have had JCB backhoes in the early 80s and never had a problem. I bought the JCB 1CXT backhoe, love the versatility of the machine, The visibility from the seat is great, leg room is good if you are 5'. But, in one year it has been in the shop 5 times at two different JCB dealers trying to fix the oil leak on the pivot for the backhoe. They have to wait for parts and or they have to call JCB to tell them how to fix it. They told me if it was not under warranty I would be paying $10,000 to $15,000 to fix it each time. I have put 1200 hours on the backhoe and I was told I use the machine too much. I just got the machine back again from the shop and it is leaking oil the first day. I told them I need a new machine because this is a lemon and I was told this will never happen. I wanted to trade this machine in for a cat skid steer and they only want to give me $34,000. I can't afford this machine when it is out of warranty.

Close. The Kubota M62 is the most versatile with the 3pt. Conversion.

Maşallah

Is that an eletric machine?

That's crazy expensive. That machine would be 7 to 10 years old before it's paid for IF the economy doesn't tank in a big way ending all the income opportunities

JCB builds countries ❤❤❤😊

Yah it's every where and because of it we build our world building jcb

I don't see how John Deere in Kubota can even be in business. How long can a good old name keep you selling machines when the new machines are money pits how many people have to lose a fortune?

Can you drive it while you're facing backwards?
