Speaking honestly, the Claas Lexion 480 has shown its capabilities during the harvest. It came with two headers - a standard 8-meter and a 12-row one for sunflowers - which provided flexibility. The threshing mechanism combined rotary and dual drum technology, achieving efficient processing. Tires showed decent wear but were serviceable. Minor updates, like filter replacement, were necessary. Interesting machine overall.

Used the Lexion 480 on our farm for a while now. Honestly, not bad, just gotta keep on top of the maintenance. Changing fluids and greasing stuff takes a bit of time, but as long as you do it, she keeps going. I like that it's pretty easy to get into most of the service points, except for a couple spots under the auger - those are a nightmare. Always ends up with someone getting covered in grease, but that's farming I guess. Ran it on wheat and barley, no big hiccups. Starts up without issue, haven't been stuck with any surprises (except maybe some pesky critters in the tank). For the price, it's fair, but not super cheap for parts. The cab isn't the best for comfort if you're in it all day, bit noisy too. Gets the harvest done though, especially with a good cleaning and regular checks.

Recently had the chance to use the Claas Lexion, and I must say it's an efficient harvester. The engine's performance stands out, offering power while being fuel-efficient. I did notice, though, adjusting settings to optimize performance during changing field conditions takes some attention. Overall, it’s a reliable machine.

I have used the Claas Lexion 480 recently during the harvesting season. The combine is well-maintained and operates efficiently, though I found the cabin to lack some modern ergonomic features, which made longer hours a bit less comfortable. Noise levels were manageable, but they could be improved. Overall, a solid machine for its age.

Had the chance to operate a Claas Lexion combine recently. Its automated features like Cruise Pilot make it a technological marvel. Nonetheless, adapting to its new layout with advanced options required patience. Effective and innovative, though.

Grain harvester John Deere S770

So I got some time with the S770 at the dealer lot last week. First off, cab feels a lot nicer than what I'm used to, that new seat and layout, it's way less crammed and everything in there makes sense. All the switches and multi-handle right where I want 'em, except the throttle setup could be better, not a fan of the three-step deal. Still, the overall comfort's up a notch and you can feel that right away.

As for the wiring, John Deere really stepped up. Way better routing compared to some Case machines I’ve run, and less headache chasing shorts. The rest of it is just kinda typical updates-better cab entrance, clean grain elevator is the old style but that’s whatever for me. I do notice a lot of belts around the rear and not in love with that for long-term maintenance, but nothing shocking. All in all, solid improvements but there’s still room for little tweaks here and there.

My neighbor and I discussed the Claas Trion over coffee, as he's been running it on his expanse. He mentioned its mapping system is particularly helpful for diverse soil conditions, ensuring optimized yield handling across plots. My only concern is the upfront investment cost; however, it appears to pay off in efficiency long-term, based on his experience.

Used the Claas Trion recently. It's functional for major harvesting tasks. The APS threshing system is decent, though not revolutionary in reducing impurities much further. Main crops like wheat and barley process without needing re-cleaning, which saves on time but isn't groundbreaking as I expected. Layout in the cabin is simple and adequate, with enough space for daily use. Overall, it's practical but doesn't feel exceptional in innovative designs.

Ran the Lexion 8700 for a few hours. I normally drive machines half this size but figured, why not see what the fuss is about. Big cab, pretty dang quiet, seat’s proper comfy and controls make sense after you get used to 'em. It’s got touchscreen for settings and that cemos auto mode - mostly it just runs itself, but you can pull back when you want. Kind of a learning curve swapping from my Deere, needed a bit to get used to the monitor and all the options. Didn’t thrash the grain too bad either, which was good to see. Can't say the wiper in the windshield is my thing. With all the features and new tech, hope nothing breaks ‘cause that might be a pain. Not perfect but definitely more pluses than minuses.

Bought a Claas Lexion 650 2020 model 4 years ago and for me it turned out to be a good decision. It's not demanding at all. When I changed the Claas 705567 knives in the header system, I had no problems. The only thing is that precise adjustment of the grain cleaning system was required during the initial startups. I had to manually adjust the fan and cleaning plate settings. Still, it helped me with harvesting rapeseed and wheat.
