Alex rented one of them on the lake job in '17
(
wow that's 6 years ago) ... was real nice .. apart from an annoying whistle on the boom check valve
... smooth as, otherwise
dare say
@Richard Hunton will be along to relate his (not so good) experiences with his DX140LC
...
the one that the little 6t replaced on the lake job was superb in every respect and punched way above its class (but they were 18t)
.. pushed the blade real well too
And here it is
@V8Druid 
Sooooo dx140lcr 5 zero swind with a blade brand fire new in Sept 17 4 pot perkins lump.
Dogged from day 1 with lack of feel in the levers and bounce in the lift rams, made worse by the wear in the boom foot.
Dealer was less than usless, blamed the tilt rotator....and there all like that
Its only just clicked over 2600hrs , been reliable otherwise , barring the frankly horrific addblue/ after treatment system, always had clean addblue in it, so far its had 4 sensors in the exhaust countless filters and finally the dealer threw the towel in and turned the add blue off.
Week later another knock sensor fault....I thought we'd turned that shite off ? "Ahhh that sensor is after the add blue system" thats another 400 notes
Make that 5 sensors.
Take tilty off and it will dig for fun, its quick, and the fuel burn isnt terrible. It will never be a premium brand but for what it is and what it does its ok for me.
I went to look at a new dash 7 direct replacement for mine. Key fob to get in no key..how much are the fobs? Erm not sure need to check! Turns out their 500 quid a pop.
Opened the front screen and took the headlining out the cab with it, then it wouldnt start, so I couldnt try it. Needless to say I walked away from that deal as a complete none starter (literally)
If I was going to buy anything , it would be a Hydrema but thats a story for another day.
Just my 2 pence worth.
