Product Features
Built To Perform
Excellent Maneuverability With 4WD and Power Steering
This tractor offers excellent maneuverability due to its standard four-wheel drive and power steering. The narrow wheelbase allows operation in tight spaces, while the power steering ensures smooth navigation around obstacles — ideal for mowing and loader work alike.
More Time Working, Less Time Switching Implements
Built for fast, tool-free implement changes. With Quick Connect Solutions like the AutoConnect™ Deck System, Quik-Park™ Loader, iMatch™ Quick Hitch and Quik-Knect™ PTO connector, you can attach or detach implements in under a minute — often without leaving the seat.
Comfortable, Convenient Open Operator's Station
The open operator station is designed for increased visibility and easy access. A thick rubber floor mat, easy step-through flat platform and premium suspension seat with armrests reduce vibration and noise, so you can work long stretches without fatigue.
Tier 4-Compliant 24 HP Yanmar® Diesel
The liquid-cooled, 3-cylinder Yanmar® 3TNV80F diesel delivers 24 hp and 18 PTO hp with 39.2 lb-ft of torque at rated speed. Paired with a two-range hydrostatic transmission and standard cruise control, it pulls hard and sips fuel from a 6.3-gallon tank.

John Deere 1025R TLB
I have really gotten comfortable with the new tractor. I am used to using a skid steer and if I had not gotten the backhoe, I would have been disappointed in how this operates. A skid steer just digs undisturbed dirt a lot better than the bucket on the tractor does. With the backhoe, I can dig and loosen the dirt and then move it around with the front end loader. I really like the power steering and the forward pedal and the reverse pedal, good design instead of having to change gears.

Excellent Overall Tractor
I have a 1025R TLB with an auto-connect 60" deck. I remove the loader and backhoe and install the deck at least once a week. It takes about 10 minutes to make the entire change. To date, I have dug about 300 feet of trench 3' deep with the backhoe. It is pretty amazing how this machine will dig. Even in shale.

Compact Tractor with Big Tractor Features
My previous tractor was a 455 that served me very well for 15 years. This tractor is both bigger and better. ** The reverse gear is more powerful and faster. ** The kill switch on the driver seat actually works as intended. I was forced to disable the switch on the 455. Every time my weight shifted on the seat, the tractor stopped. ** Connecting the 60 inch mower deck is easy as opposed to a chore. ** The loader is easily connected and disconnected. I use it with a ballast box connected with an I Match Hitch. ** The three point hitch enables the use of a wide range of implements that formerly

Perfect size
I bought 4052R in 2020, and had a JD. 111 with a few mods. Both were great, but I needed something that could cut my grass quicker, and fit into my barn for cleaning. The 1025 fits that bill great! I have even planted corn with it.

Best sub-compact in the market
When I was shopping for a sub-compact tractor I gave all brands in the area a chance to show me what they got to offer and tested their machines. New Holland, Massey Ferguson, John Deere, Kubota and Mahindra were the brand's I tested on all their sub-compacts, they were all great machines but John Deere was the only one that stood out from the rest in terms of Performance, Durability and Functionality. I bought a new 2019 1025R from premier equipment ospringe location in Wellington County, Ontario, Canada. Their salesperson "Joe" was the person who helped me with my purchase, I went in to look

1025 TLB FANTASTIC PRODUCT!!
Bought a new 1025TLB from my dealer here in Princeton. It definitely has great power and the hydraulics are incredible strong! I am already on my 5th stump and what a ball to operate! Wish I would have purchased it long ago! I also added the Barracuda thumb--excellent addition. Cost was only $330 and really helps with stumps and brush piles. Also bought the 54 inch snow blower for front. Because the FEL is so easy to remove, it makes the snow blower attachment process easy. Now just waiting for our first snow. I HIGHLY recommend this to anyone. The product development folks have really gotten

A real review
This is a great all around Sub Compact. I have a 2018, loader, backhoe, box blade and 60 inch MMM. I am very pleased so far with it but be prepared before you buy one, you need to know a few things. 1. All tractors eventually have small issues. Remember this is not a car. You are buying this to flat out beat on it so you can save your back. I suppose if you baby it, wash it daily, buff it, then maybe just maybe it will never have an issue. What I mean by issues is do not get prissy if a bolt comes loose here or there or if a snap ring comes loose. It is a tractor, it vibrates, they all do no m

Great overall small tractor with so many uses.
I have only had it about 3 months, but I wish I had bought it years ago. I had no idea the things I could do with a tractor until I bought it. It has plenty of power for what I use it for and has been a life saver with the new property I bought.

Best Tractor!
We have had our 1025r over a year now and it has been an essential part of taking care of our acreage. The 60D drive over mower deck is ingenious and works perfectly, not to mention it chews through everything in our pasture including the brutally strong Colorado ragweed. Great power, excellent turning radius, smooth engine, perfect operating station including very comfortable seating. We are 100% satisfied and very impressed with the capability and power of this tractor. Our property has areas that are very rough

Good overall tractor/mower/loader
I bought this tractor to replace my old faithful 2305 and loader. I had a bit of early buyer's remorse because of the mower cut quality on my lawn when set up to factory specs. The dealer was not much help here, so I set it the way my logic indicated. Set deck wheels to 1/16 - 1/8" clearance on the drive way....cut well. I'm VERY disappointed with the ride quality of the suspension seat. The seat bottoms out with a spine jarring impact that tears my ailing back up. Again, no help from either Deere or the dealer oth

Hydraulic hose and snap ring in two months.
I purchased two months ago and have put over 45 hours on this tractor, I have the back hoe and the H120 loader. This is a very strong machine and I have been impressed. Its very easy to use. My concern is that the quality is not the same as my 30 year old 325 lawn mower which is tough as nails. Up on delivery the tractor had a leaking hydraulic hose that had to be replaced, I was using my new tiller, well my wife was using my new tiller and the snap ring that keeps the spline shaft on for the draft arms broke ( and

I have owned many small lawn tractors over the years and all John Deere. I was in the market recently shopping for a new 2020 sub compact tractor between Kubota BX series and JD 1025R with a BH / FL / MM, after a long period of time and research comparing product vs price I decided to go with the JD 1025R which was slightly higher than Kubota, but what won me over was all the easy off & on quick disconnect attachments plus.

Great Tractor - It will continually amaze you what it can do
My 1025R is an amazing tractor. I absolutely love it. I got the 60" auto connect deck, 260B back hoe with thumb and the 120R loader. Everything has worked very well and has that feel of quality. I was worried this tractor was going to be too small. However after operating it I am shocked how capable it really is. I would buy this tractor again without thinking twice. I looked at all the other tractors out there, they are not as well rounded of a machine as this. When you buy a Deere you expect quality, a well engin

Great little tractor
I purchased my 1025R December 2017 and have 77 hours on it already. I use it for my own property (3 acres) and it has made the impossible - possible. From grading soil, removing tree stumps, and hauling brush and debris, this tractor has not let me down in any way. Considering it is a small tractor, it has more than enough power to get just about any job done. It can get into tight areas where a larger machine wouldn't be able to. The backhoe has plenty of power, the loader seems to lift whatever I put in it withou

I bought this about three months ago and have been very happy with my purchase. I’ve used the backhoe much more than anticipated and it really does a good job digging holes. The four wheel drive has been very handy when traveling across my property in muddy, uneven terrain. I use the tractor most every weekend for chores around the property. .we had a rare snow and ice event and I was able to use the front loader bucket to clean off my concrete drive!

This tractor lives up to the quality that I expected from John Deere
I recently purchased this tractor with the backhoe attachment. I love the way it handles and its smooth operation. The controls were easy to learn and I tend to look for projects so I can get on the machine. There is only one thing I do not like and that is the fact that the tractor only comes with one key. After paying more than $20K for this machine, I tried to get a second key but they had to first order one for me and then I had to pay for it. At only $6 it was not a big deal but that is exactly my point. Why n

Our 1025R is a great work horse with plenty of power
We bought our 1025r to mow the 4 acres of rough grass which it handles with ease. We used the front loader to plow, push and lift lot's of snow this past winter and she never hesitated lifting or pushing even up a 3 degree grade. The back hoe may be small but it works just like the big ones and is very good at digging up tree roots and digging holes. Frankly, 90% of the use on our 1025r has been removing tree roots, and clearing out saplings and small trees up to 6" diameters. We've leveled and graded our grounds a

Great Little Tractor
I have had my 1025 for several years and have several hundred hours on it. It has not had any issues. I have the quick release loader, backhoe, 4' box blade, 50" finish mower, 4' rotary cutter/shredder, 4' tiller, imatch quick hitch and pallet forks for the front. I have worked it hard on my hunting property in the country. My main use is on my 3 acres in town. I bought this because of the small size and getting into tight areas and my small barn doors. This thing has been a real back saver for me around the house.

Very surprised
I never thought I would be able to afford a John Deere. I started out the day thinking I was going to buy a Massey Ferguson, New Holland or Kubota. My brother forced me to go to the John Deere dealership. After talking to the salesman, I was surprised I was able to get the John Deere from west of the other tractor brands. I believe the tractor I bought is far superior to those other brands I could not be happier. I’ve had this tractor now for four months and I am very happy with my purchase.
