Price Paid : $12,400.00
Years of Use : 3+ Years
Implements : FEL, 62" mower deck, rear blade, 48" box, Rear 3ph rotary mower, landscape rack
Purchased From : Rappahannock Tractor
Strengths
Good worker for the price! Easy operation, reliable, versatile-- able to do a lot of things very well for its size. Easy attach/remove system for deck mower and FEL makes switching jobs quite simple. The FEL is a breeze, the deck mower takes a little more time!
Weaknesses Biggest irritant is the lack of a graduated 3PH. Guessing blade,box or rake position at each lowering doesn't produce a consistent results. Transmission/hydraulic filter is in a vulnerable place -- facing forward and unprotected at the lowest point on the underside. Remember it's down there!
Overall A little tractor that thinks it's a big tractor. It will always satisfy you if you ask reasonable strength and speed from it. Extremely reliable and easily maintainable. If it fits you needs, you'll never regret buying it -- new or used.

Strengths L
Loader very strong.
Very nice tractor overall for home use.
Weaknesses I Have a 2003 2210.
The rear PTO went out.JD said it would cost $3000 to replace with new transmission.
Funny they changed trans right after my serial number to one size bigger.
If you want to use rear PTO on 03 then prepare for trouble!!
Overall Except for JD screwing me on transmission a very nice tractor.
Again if no plans for rear PTo then buy one.

Strengths Awsome little tractor,200X loader,62"deck,sprayer,huge lawn roller,rear blade. I use it to maintain 3 acres and snow removal. JD says the loader is non-removable I bought a chain fall and it's off in minutes.The lug tires are perfect.Plenty of HP power.
Weaknesses Hyd. are slow not weak heres why.Engineers match cycle time and lift against the front axle load.A larger pump would increase both but we would break front axles, no one is doing that.So...the larger the front axle the more hyd.power the loader will have.
Overall Tips: Cold start use glow plugs, engage pto so tractor will not start pull throttle back,turn key all the way to start and hold 45 seconds.Turn pto off and start. Bingo! Fuel: The best diesel on the planet is BP-Amoco Permier. 48 cetane means better start,more power,cleaner burn, less fumes,smoke and gelling problems.#2 diesel gives you all the problems I just read about.We heat our homes with that stuff. Biofuel(soy etc.) will ruin your tractor in cold weather.Hope I have been helpful,enjoy.

Review By : R.E. Westgate on 12/23/2008
Price Paid : $14,400.00
Years of Use : 3+ Years
Implements : 210CX Loader, 47B Snow Blower
Purchased From : Tailored Lawn and Turf- Jenison, MI
Strengths Good Fuel Economy, tight turning radius, well designed implement attachment, logical control layout, easy service, reliability, cost of operation.
Weaknesses No tilt wheel, operator station somewhat cramped for those over 6' tall, expensive parts at dealership, front PTO setup less than ideal (it works, but at the cost of some ground clearance. Easy enough to drop the front driveshaft, though).
Overall This is a fantastic compact utility tractor! 90% of your satisfaction with a tractor is picking the right one for your needs, and I chose right on this one. The 2210 is very maneuverable in the woods, and has just enough grunt to tug felled trees down. If you don't have grass to drive on (I don't), skip the cheesy turf tires. I am sure they are easy on the grass, but they aren't worth much for traction. Order all maintenance parts online ahead of time to save money (an air filter set is $60 at my dealer! OUCH!). Use quality diesel fuel for easy winter starting (also give it about 1/2 throttle on the first start of the day), I've fired it up in -10 F temps after sitting for 3 months and it took off on the first try. Impressive. I've had this machine for 7 years and put 35 hrs on it this winter doing snow removal.

Implements : FEL, Weed cutter, back scrapper
Purchased From : Tractor Equipment Sales, Santa Clara, CA
Strengths I bought the 2210 new. Tractor works great. The 4 ac. of land in California is perfect for this little unit to work on. Low profile also a plus. Helped my neighbor twice when his kobota flipped over (high center).
Weaknesses When engage the electric PTO switch. The mover shakes a lot. Should use clutch
Overall I have another tractor, a Yanmar. Both are greatlittle machine. However, the 2210 is much nicer machine.

Strengths goes anywhere i have asked it to go does anything i have tried i mean i dug a pond with the thing I am still amazed by what this little tractor will do havn't found much it won't do
Weaknesses a little tippy with the bucket loaded, but use your head and fill the ballast box they give you. wish it had glow plugs starts hard when its cold out poor location of fuel filter gels when its -10 or so keep your fuel treated Wish a backhoe was available
Overall I love my JD looked at them all traded in a JD 318 on it Would buy another one in a heartbeat
