Is this better than a conventional reach truck?

Have you any experiences to share?

depends on the application. the linde reach truck is not that populor in the states. It is very expensive lift, and there are not many used ones out there.

I would say a conventional Reach would fit 85 % of the applications I run into.

I'ts main features from an operator perspective are much improved visibility due to the wider mast and a roomier cab achieved by the battery being under rather than accross the machine. Can be a pain to check and change the battery. I would say if its intensive applications and the driver is spending lots of time on the truck then the 116 is a better bet. They did have some reliability issues early on but I think they have been sorted now.
