I have no experience with them but know it is not made by Takeuchi...I'm by no means saying that's a bad thing, I'm not sure any of them are made by the manufacturers that sell em. I have a Kubota R630 and I know it's built in Europe, weather or not kubota builds it is hard to say but I doubt it.

I know Wacker, CAT, Kubota and JCB build their own. CASE, Deere and Takeuchi both buy them from others.

I do not think anyone builds them in the US. Most, if not all, are coming from Europe, usually Germany.

I've had the Atlas AR65 loaders for 13 years and just bought a TW65 a month ago. They are built like a Mercedes. No rattles, the pins and bushings don't wear out with 3000 hours and they run strong. My new TW65 is pretty new but I'm sure it will be a great machine for a long time.
