I've always used different telehandlers, tried out the Manitou MLT 937 recently on a friend's dairy. First thing, the controls are super responsive, hydraulic pump manages loads fine-I was lifting grain and moving pallet forks without much drama. The optional LED lights are actually useful once it gets dark (really wish more machines started making this standard). Didn't try too many attachments, but it's set up for a ton of stuff, makes things less of a hassle when you swap out. Heat/AC was alright but took a bit to really get going on a cold morning. Can't say I loved the yellow steps and extra handles, they kinda stand out but do make getting in with muddy boots easier. Maintenance-wise, haven't dealt with it personally, but automatic greasing sounds like a smart move if it'll cut down on downtime.

I've had the chance to operate the MLT 735, and overall, it's a solid telehandler. The 7m reach combined with a 3.5-ton lift capacity comes in handy for most tasks. The LED front work lights are a nice feature for working into the evening. I've noticed a slight fade near the exhaust and a couple of scratches on the body-not ideal, but nothing that affects functionality. Air conditioning makes a big difference for comfort. After using it for a few projects, I'd give it a thumbs-up, but it does have some small nicks.

I’ve primarily used the MT 732 for agricultural tasks. It handles well overall, though the maintenance could've been slightly less frequent. Comfort level in the cabin is acceptable for longer durations. Its uptime reliability was solid throughout.

I've run a lot of handlers and this 1840's torque and traction actually surprised me. We're on pretty rough ground lately, and the four wheel steer and clearance got me in spots I'm not used to with some other brands. Swapping out attachments like the bucket and forks is quick with that Easy Connect, though the hook up still feels a bit stiff if it's cold out. Dash is straightforward and the joystick's easy on the wrist, I do appreciate that cab step upgrade-less climbing, less tripping. Just wish the dash screen wasn't so tiny. For what we do, gets the job done fine. Little rattly on bumpy days, I guess that's par for the course in this size though.

Been running the new MLT 7:30 for a few weeks at the farm. First thing I noticed was how easy it is to get the cab, especially if you jump in and out a lot during the day. The visibility is pretty good, feels safer when moving stuff around the yard. The boom height actually surprised me, gets those bales up high no problem. Engine feels strong too, don't feel like I'm pushing it hard even with bigger loads. Only thing, wish the display and some controls were a little more simple, had to get used to em. Overall, machine's compact for tight spaces, definitely fits through our smaller sheds easier than the last telehandler we had.

Had my hands on the MLT X 737 for a while working with different attachments, mostly lifting and hauling. Swapping tools is a breeze, that easy connect really works, saves me a bunch of time. I found the engine and hydraulics strong enough, even when I work close to its max lift. The power shift transmission makes life easier - just pushing buttons for gears instead of fighting levers. Only thing, it's not the fastest machine you'll ever use, especially with a full load, but you get used to that. Two modes (auto/manual) are also a plus, since sometimes you want more control. Haven’t had any real breakdowns so far. Would call it reliable, but haven't pushed it through a full season yet to know for sure.

I have been using the Manitou MT 625 telescopic forklift at my warehouse for over a year now. This model has proven itself to be a functional and practical piece of equipment. Equipped with a Kubota V2403-CR-TE4B diesel engine, the forklift demonstrates good traction characteristics and fuel efficiency. During operation, I had to replace the air filter and oil filter as part of routine maintenance. My advice is to always perform scheduled inspections and replace the most in-demand parts on time.

This model's modern approach with lithium-ion batteries reduces maintenance costs significantly, which I value. However, a small compromise is the limited operational duration per charge.

Had a chance to use the Manitou MLT x 741 140 VI Plus on the farm all season. The cab is super quiet, which is not something you see a lot in this class. My back used to get sore after a day in other loaders but that seat with pneumatic suspension is actually decent, even on long days. Controls are all mostly on the armrest, and I do like how the joystick works with one hand so I can keep my other hand on the wheel. Only small annoyance is the buttons: they got all these colors and positions you can change, which is cool, but feels complicated at first if you’re not used to these new ones. The view from the cab is solid, especially with the big windshield and mirrors. Haven't had issues with storage - plenty of spots to jam your stuff in. If you ask me, it’s a comfortable place to spend hours in, as long as you don’t mind learning all the controls.

Been driving the MLT 732 for 200+ hours so far, and nothing major has gone wrong. I heard some guys complain about lack of multi-action switching like on newer units, but after a week you forget about that. I just wish the joystick felt a little less clunky sometimes, but really, it's manageable. I dig how much easier it is to get stuff up high or in tight spaces, you wouldn't do half these jobs with the old kit. Swapping forks or the bucket is quick enough, I don't waste much time in between jobs, and the view all around is decent except for when you stack all the way up - the mirrors do help though. Not perfect, but mostly hassle-free so far.
