Quality would be better.
A comment
For the price I would like the best quality. In the first month of operation, the splines of the drive pulley were cut off and the torsion shaft failed. I contacted the warranty department and sent a photo of the damage, we listened, promised to solve the problem, but after a day there is no answer. During movement on a dirt road, a box in which the battery is located fell off. The fuel tank fell off, the protective casing of the drive belts also began to fall apart. The question for the manufacturer is how much welding can it really be done qualitatively. The starter stopped starting.
pros
It carries about 500 kilograms. Good economy.
Minuses
Poor quality parts.
Term of use
several months

centaur 1010D - quality does not shine
A comment
I bought a centaur 1010D motoblock in 2012. I did everything possible on it to the limit. 10 horses are enough for him. Pulls decent loads - 500 kg of potatoes on a pretty steep hill at a time. There is a lot of attachments, and you can also use canopies from other models. I used a potato digger from the Neva kit.
What really upset him was the build quality. The quality of painting is also very poor, after the first wintering in the garage I had to completely sand and paint myself.
pros
Universal - I use for all types of agricultural work + transportation of goods + a motor pump + threw a makeshift generator; horsepower is enough for the hardest work; low fuel consumption; electric starter.
Minuses
build quality is disgusting, the advertised headlight does not shine well
Term of use
more than five years

Motoblock Centaur MB 2071D - replacement rings for each oil change
A comment
Technical characteristics of the centaur MB 2071D motoblock are just excellent and they are quite true. However, China is China. Build quality is disgusting. After a week of use, the wing mount burst, after 5 months the walk-behind tractor began to eat oil as a full-fledged tractor. The reason was the wear of compression and oil scraper rings. After the replacement, everything returned to normal until next season. Naturally, each change is accompanied by an oil change.

But there are no problems with fuel consumption. The average consumption is 1 liter for 2 hours of operation. This was enough to walk 4 times on 10 acres of virgin soil, densely overgrown with weeds. In late autumn, when freezing begins, it is imperative to switch to a high-quality winter diesel, otherwise you will get hogged up with a start.
pros
Price, power, incredible economy
Minuses
Parts quality, assembly
Term of use
more than three years

Centaur MB 2090 - the walk-behind tractor is excellent, but there are slight nuances in operation
A comment
Motoblock Centaur MB 2090 was purchased 2 years ago to replace the shovel. It turned out to be an indispensable thing when you need to handle 20 acres, but there is no access to large equipment to the site. I use soil cutters and disks for cutting large weeds. Without preliminary cutting and grass harvesting, it is unrealistic to raise virgin soil. After every 10-15 steps, you have to stop and remove the wound grass from the milling cutters. In general, it is better to raise heavy virgin soil cascadely, gradually deepening into the soil. This has almost no effect on costs, since the walk-behind tractor consumes very little fuel, and the quality of the treated soil will be excellent.
pros
A strip of plowing and cultivation of 1.5 meters. Very low fuel consumption. In commissioning, simple, unpretentious in operation. Quite affordable cost.
Minuses
Starts poorly in the cold. After a long period of inactivity (almost all winter), the fuel float wedged once.
Term of use
more than three years
