After working with the MT 732 for a while, I see its strengths. The range of visibility is a clear advantage for coordinating movements on crowded worksites. Having put about 100 hours on it, I’d commend the design-all controls fall right to hand. On occasions, I found shifting between certain gears less smooth, but it didn’t hinder overall operation.

I have been using the Manitou MT 625, manufactured in 20 years, and I am completely satisfied with its technical characteristics and operational qualities. Equipped with a turbocharged diesel engine D1105-E4B-TXNU-1 with electronic control, the loader stands out for its impressive power and fuel efficiency. It easily handles tall loads. I liked the driver's cab, where you can adjust everything to your liking, including the electronics. Overall, the Manitou MT 625 is a powerful, maneuverable, and reliable assistant in the warehouse.

I've been on all sorts of loaders and this MLT X 737 took a bit to get used to with all the digital displays everywhere. The info is handy-lets you know if something's overheating or whatnot, but honestly, there's so many flashing icons at times I had to double check the manual to figure it out. Performance is strong, lifts whatever we put under it, and the reversing fan works wonders for keeping the radiator clear in summer, don't need to clean it out as often. Storage slots all over the cab, which I use more than I thought I would. Not super thrilled about the price tag, and I do think it’s a lot of electronics for a loader, but it gets the job done and has held up fine through a busy silage season.

Tested out the Manitou MLT X 737 130 PS Plus for a couple of weeks now on big feed jobs and loader work. Gotta admit the cab is proper quiet - I can actually hear my phone ring for once, that's a big plus. Seat’s comfy and adjustable, so my back doesn’t scream at me after long shifts, which isn't the case with older machines I used. Controls are chunky, easy to find, even got little lights so you don’t panic looking for them in low light. My one gripe is some of the buttons feel too complicated for what they do, takes a while to get used to all the colours and lights. Besides that, didn’t spot any huge faults. Not cheap, but you get lots of tech and that new cab for your cash, so can’t really knock it.

So, we've been hammering the MLT 635-130 pretty hard and it's done the job. The automatic transmission setting makes road work less of a chore, but I'm still stuck in my ways and use manual around the yard-it just feels better and faster for shunting stuff around buildings. That new automatic declutch thing took me off guard at first, but now I’ve got used to it and honestly loading feels less jerky. Comfort has moved on since older models and it does help on long shifts. As for the safety stuff, yeah, it's protective, but having to recalibrate the sensors is a pain, especially if you’re in a rush. Wouldn't say this thing is faultless, but for the work it's doing, I'm not looking elsewhere soon. AdBlue use isn't bad either, and maintenance hasn’t caused me any grief yet.

Been driving different loaders for about 15 years, used the MLT 741 140 VI Plus for about 6 months now. Noise in the cab is lower than my old rig. Like that they actually do what they say with lifting weights in rough fields, not some fantasy numbers for flat concrete. At first, fiddling with those digital displays and all the buttons felt way too high tech for what I need-sometimes wish there was less flashing and beeping. But you get used to it. Controls are easy to grab. Heat and AC both handle our temperature swings here. Visibility is real good with those mirrors. Didn’t have any breakdowns yet. Steering’s light, feels solid on crappy ground. Running costs not really low, but fits the quality. No regrets switching over so far.

Been running the MLT 625 for about six months now mostly around the yard and fields, swapping between forks and bucket. The boom’s single extension setup is sturdy. Doesn’t flex much even when I’m lifting heavy round bales all the way up. Visibility out the cab is alright but I wish the door swung out just a touch wider. The joystick (JSM) takes a bit to get used to with all the functions crammed into it, but once you figure it out, one-handed operation works well. Maintenance is solid - everything’s right there, easy to grab. Parts show up quick if you need em, never had to wait more than 2 days. Engine’s reliable, not too thirsty. Could use a bit more power up hills with a load, though not a big gripe. All in, does what I need, just with a couple quirks.

I've been around a lot of telehandlers over the years, and I got some early hours on this new Manitou MT 625 electric. First thing, it's definitely quieter than the old diesel rigs, which is cool when working indoors or in city areas. The electric thing means no fumes, which is also a win. It lifts up to a decent height (almost 6 meters) and still gets around rough ground, but I’m not blown away by the battery life. Four hours on a single charge feels a bit light, especially during long days-I've gotta keep an eye on the battery more than I’d like. Costs are better though, maintenance seems simpler and it’s cheaper to run. Visibility from the cab is pretty solid and all the safety alerts and gadgets make life easier.

What I noticed with this MLT 741 over the last version is the eco mode that shuts off the engine after a couple minutes not moving - saves a bit on fuel I guess, since we used to rack up crazy engine hours just idling. Noticed the same with the 850 model and its auto stop-start, which honestly feels like overkill sometimes, but works. Cameras for reversing are a nice touch, hardly ever risk bumping stuff now. They changed the tyres too, with block-treads, supposed to last twice as long on yards like ours. Only bug is you need the key for the bonnet every time, which is just annoying when you're in a hurry for a quick check.

I just wrapped up a three-month stint with the Manitou MT 1440 on site. Climbing in and out is easy, just two steps, even with all my gear on. The suspension seat and air con are way better than the old model, honestly made long days a bit less rough. I hate fiddling with windows, the electric ones are a plus. 4WD works as expected, got me through soft spots without needing a push. Visibility is solid, mirrors pretty much wipe out most blind spots. Not crazy about the joystick, feels too light sometimes and a bit laggy for fine adjustments. Reliability was good, never had an actual breakdown, but wish the cab was a little less plasticky inside.
