Owner reviews

Sviridenko Galina, Sumy region, Bayrak village

“We bought a Salyut 5 walk-behind tractor with a Lifanov engine. Very pleased, but this is a man's toy, I can't handle it. The disadvantage is that the attachment is very expensive, we will have to make something ourselves. Useful equipment for a vegetable garden, even if it’s only 30 acres, like ours. The main advantage is that everything is much faster, we manage ourselves, we don’t invite help. And the quality is excellent, and it's a win for the money. Loosening and mulching are not suitable for us, the soil is not right. Without a walk-behind tractor, of course, we would not have managed our site.”

Chuprina Vladimir, Vinnytsia region

“I don’t see normal life in the village without technology. I always worked with equipment - a motorcycle, a Czech mower, various machines, a circular saw. But the walk-behind tractor was not enough. Previously, they planted potatoes with a horse, and also hilled them. The rest was all done by hand, we even dug with a shovel once. And here one walk-behind tractor can solve all problems. I looked at mini tractors, they are the cheapest, but the prices are steep. With this money I can buy two walk-behind tractors, connect them, and even have different attachments to boot. So I settled on the Salyut 5 L 6.5 Lifan, I’ll convert everything that needs to be converted myself.”
