Excellente machine
Nous sommes une compagnie d'excavation établie depuis 1975 au Québec, Canada. C'est la première fois que nous achetons une plaque vibrante en ligne. TMG est une compagnie Canadienne. Nous avons pris le risque de faire affaire avec eux , même si ils sont à l'autre bout de notre beau grand pays. Nous sommes totalement satisfais . Notre petite machine s'est perdu en route pour quelques jours et l'équipe de TMG a travaillé très fort pour résoudre le problème de livraison. Merci à eux. Service après vente exceptionnel. Je vais surement faire affaire encore avec eux. De plus nous avons utilisé cette machine pendant 4 jours consécutif et malgré les grandes chaleurs , elle fonctionne à merveille. Merci encore. Pierre Gagné , Président, Excavation Gagné et fils ltée.

Delivered when stated and works well. It came with wheels for transport which was a bonus but still trying to figure out how they attach. Packs well

Good vibes!
Very happy with this compactor. After experiencing the cost of repeatedly renting machines, the price point of this one made it an attractive option. If you’re going to rent more than a few weekends, it’s worth considering buying an entry level machine like this. Been pleasantly surprised by its performance, it’s exceeded my expectations. Doing perimeter drains, driveways and sidewalk prep as well as landscaping as part of a big home renovation, it’s been nice to have the machine on site. Small enough to store easily but big enough to do any job at a residential worksite. Have not required parts or after sale service. Highly recommend.
