I've been running the 428F for a couple of weeks now. Overall, it's dependable. Controls feel smooth and precise though they might slightly falter under heavy strain. Price seemed fair, but you may find alternatives with similar performance at a lower cost. Service intervals are reasonable and maintenance's straightforward. Comfort's alright, but there's room for improvement. If you're after reliability, this machine ticks the boxes.

Used this model in various construction settings. Operational controls are decent but somewhat tricky initially, although you'll get used to them with time. Comfort levels are manageable for extended use. The reliability stands out - faced no downtime issues, which is crucial on-site. Service costs feel typical for this type of equipment.

I recently spent a week using the Caterpillar 428F, and here's my take. First off, I really appreciated the efficient fuel consumption, especially thanks to the engine management system built-in. The improved hydraulic system provided smooth operation, which stood out during tasks requiring fine control. However, the cabin noise was slightly higher than expected, although its ergonomic layout made up for it. Overall, it’s a well-balanced machine.

Recently had the chance to operate this machine. Found the seating arrangement quite accommodating, and the operational interface is sufficient for most tasks. Reliability assured no project delays. Comfort during long hours is adequate, though there's room for improvement in minor areas like noise levels.

I bought it new. And literally a year later he sold it. The reason is banal, it is pouring. The operating time is 1500, and it feels like 15000. Vibration in the box, all the cylinders, distributors and a lot of hoses flowed in the very first frosts, at times there was a hum from the pump, the boom began to dangle at the handle attachment point already at 500m / h and many more little things that can be describe for a long time. In general, for this money it is better to buy two used tractors. I am very upset, I will no longer buy Caterpillar in my life and will not advise anyone

I bought the Caterpillar 428 mini excavator a year ago. For six months everything was fine, but recently, three rings on the inclined plate plunger of the hydraulic pump broke. I called a specialist. The expert said that the problem is quite easily solvable. Following his recommendation, I ordered a grinding washer and a plunger with a single ring.

I used to have an old model Caterpillar loader before. I decided to get the 428E excavator. This machine is highly productive and maneuverable. It can reach speeds of up to 40 km/h, so transferring it from one site to another is not a problem. There's no need to spend time and money on renting cargo transport equipment.

I spent a long time choosing an excavator-loader because I had a limited budget. I settled on the Caterpillar brand, model 428. The machine worked fine for the first year. In the second year, there started to be an unclear vibration. The issue was resolved at the service center.

Had a chance to operate the 428F on a training project. The machine offers solid power delivery and the responsiveness of the controls impressed me. The telescopic capabilities allowed for greater operational scope, although I found adjusting to the joystick setup a bit tricky initially. Maintenance access points are well thought out, which is practical for daily checks.
