    Bear in mind the below is almost 10 years old - it might be worth posting on there if you get no replies here:

    Can’t comment on the 633 as we don’t use John Deere but we have had a quickie q46 on our last tractor and a Q4m on our current one and couldn’t fault either, never had any issues.

    I’ve always found the John Deere loaders to be a big clumsy unit on a tractor. The visibility is very poor with them especially the self levelling ones. The tilt is very poor on them as well and again more-so with the self levelling versions.

    I think it’s hard to beat a quicke loader, have one here on a tractor almost 20 years now and have never replaced a pin or a bushing and there’s no wear on it and it would be handling 100’s if not 1,000’s of bales a year between drawing, stacking and feeding.

    I’d probably choose any other make of loader over a JD to be honest, they’re just not a nice loader.

    thanks all for the feedback. I am leaning towards the Q4m. I have seen in other forums that the 633 are well built but as mentioned the visibility can be poor. Never had a front loader hear they can be handy with bales and even a front bucket.

    Thanks seems you have experience using them appreciate your feedback. A few neighbours have great praise for the quicke and even the MX loaders. Don't want a clumsy loader either on the tractor
