Would RecommendWe got this a year ago to use around the rv park and farm. There was a design flaw in the transfer case that caused an oil leak. ( gear oil) now the manufacturer has corrected the problem. These machines don't make a lot of horsepower, they aren't very fast. But they don't cost 35.000 like the Japanese models either. We haul wood, propane tanks, tools, and feed on ours and will honestly say it's worth the price, but don't expect to find a mechanic that wants to work on these in case you ha...

Less than 4 months old & falling apart!
Would Not RecommendFirst, the handle on the driver door broke 8 weeks after we bought it, and we can't find replacement parts. Next, the winch jammed up a week later. Two weeks after that, it failed to go into gear, because the transmission fell apart in it. We tried to take it to the location we were advised by Lowe's, they said does their factory warranty work. But when we called to take it in, they refused to look at it, as they no longer service anything this company makes, because the company never paid them ...

Wow, can you believe...
Would Not RecommendGood grief, I really wanted one of these. They look great out in front of the Lowes store. I have been researching them, and others, and just from the reviews I decided not to get one. Read the negative reviews, there's a lot of them! And they're all the same. Loose nuts and bolts (Lowes assemblers fault), leaking fluids, problem shifting, control panel icons not working properly therefore preventing proper operation of the vehicle, such as speed, and many more common problems. I urge you to ...

Decent vehicle for the price
Would RecommendThe purchase process was easy, I read mixed reviews about this machine, mostly positive but I can't give a review on the Axis 500 other than to say the construction of this vehicle seems to be pretty good and everything has initially worked.

Cheap but not cheerful Zero stars
Would Not RecommendPurchased 4 months ago. Initial build quality very poor. Unit had multiple loose bolts on the frame and random additional parts in the cab. Clearly a lack of quality inspection during assembly. CVT transmission has totally failed, no forward or reverse drive. Local dealers or service repair companies not available in my area. Mobile tech not available for weeks. Still trying to get Axis to provide a return authorization code to Lowe’s so I can return the unit. Dreadful customer service from Axis...
