The Komatsu Wa380-6 was one of the quietest loaders I've driven. The seat on this machine was the most comfortable of any wheel loader I'd ever used. Benefits include multiple waist adjustments, a high back, and plenty of back and forth movement. At the same time, the cabin's width was above average. Cleaning the windows was made easier by the wide steps and handholds. Finally, I didn't like having to remove a dipstick to check the transmission fluid, and I'm not sure I like the steering wheel.Komatsu Wa380 Review
