“The designers have done a reasonable job of capturing the likeness of the real machine, within the limits of the Technic system, although the use of road tires is particularly disappointing. Obviously, the budget did not stretch to creating new, more accurate, ones. Farm... More machinery and plant are my favorite types of Technic model and I was not disappointed by this one.”

“While the set features a good-looking harvester, I'm not sure about the name. The instructions feature a comparison between the set and the real-life model, and although I can see the similarity, I'm not sure if the model is a true representation of the 9700 Forage... More Harvester.”
