I have looked at both brands. Kubota usually has a better finish and quality of control levers an such. The major difference is the parent company. I would NEVER OWN anything that I had to worry about AGCO for warranty or design. Especially the compact tractors. They are designed/built by Iseki under contract for AGCO. I personally know of two law suits on warranty related issues on these tractors. AGCO and ISEKI both tried passing the buck back and forth on who's fault the troubles where.
A Man was killed on the one tractor. The steering failed while he was going down the road. He went off the end of a 20 foot tall culvert. It flipped completely over on its top before it hit. He was seat belted to the tractor. Even with eye witnesses stating the fellow was screaming that he had no steering AGCO stated the tractor was in working order. The roll guard folded forward and he was crushed under the roll bar/tractor. The tractor was assembled in the USA by AGCO. So Iseki said it was installed wrong by AGCO and AGCO said it was designed wrong by Iseki. The tractor had 45 hours on it.
Google MF/Iseki warranty troubles and you will get lots of hits on hydraulic issues and weak steering with loaders.
