Yep. I got a 2246QT for my Kubota L275 a couple of years ago. Appears to be well made. What impressed me when I mounted the sub frame was that it FIT. No reaming, jacking, stretching and pulling to speak of. The Bush Hog engineers seem to have a good handle on what size tractor a particular loader is suited for--in other words, it is not over-built for a HP class therefore there is not a bunch of dead weight being hauled around.

I DO NOT like the position of the bucket cylinder hydraulic ports. They face directly forward toward the "work" and they are vulnerable to damage especially the lower ones closer to the bucket (yep, been there!) I gave the Bush Hog wonks at the Louisville KY show an earful about their design. They seemed to have addressed that in some newer models as the lower cylinder ports are oriented to the side and are less vulnerable.

All in all, I am pleased with the loader.
