Plant Accessories – What to consider when buying new or used!

Feeling overwhelmed by the large selection of digger attachments available on the market? Here at Masterhitch we want to help make your decision a bit easier. To avoid wasting your time and money on plant accessories, it is essential to thoroughly understand what is needed to get the job done. We will take a look at the difference between buying new and used plant equipment, how to choose what company to use, and what digger attachments are available at Masterhitch.

New or Used Digger Attachments?

Deciding whether to opt for brand new attachments or save some money on used digger attachments can be difficult. New and used plant accessories can be viable options but offer different benefits.

Benefits of New Digger Attachments

If you choose to buy plant accessories from Masterhitch you will benefit from:

  • No wear and tear
  • Saving money in the long run
  • Digger attachments that are made to your specification
  • 12 month warranty on all buckets and attachments, and 6 months for breaker cradles
  • Direct relationship with manufacturer

Benefits of Used Digger Attachments

If you’re looking to buy used digger attachments for a short term project, you will save yourself money. However, due to already being used the wear and tear will mean that they will not be suitable for a long term solution.

Seller reputation

Ensure you look into the background of any seller. Checking social media channels can help you get a sense on how reliable the seller is. Using trusted review sites such as Trust Pilot will highlight any previous complaints, if any.

Photos and Videos

Once you’ve decided on digger attachment specifications, and found a trustworthy seller remember to request photos! Or even better videos of the attachment in action to make sure it is in full working order. 

Do you require Delivery?

How will the digger attachment get to your destination? Certain sellers may offer to cover delivery or include it in your quote. If this is not the case you will need to find a price for a 3rd party delivery service.
