    I do not have one, but I would if I could. I like the Utility series better. I believe one of these and one of the all wheel steer skid steers with attachments would be ideal for a homestead.

    I have the tall non-insulated ones. Work great. Easy for me to get on and off even with my physical problems.

    Japanese persimmons tend to be fairly large with only two or three per cluster. American persimmons are smaller and often with several in a cluster.

    Just my opinion.

    I love American Persimmons. We had several trees around the mini-homestead I lived on from age 5 to 14.

    Japanese persimmons just do not hold a candle to the native American ones.
