Speaking honestly, the Claas Lexion 480 has shown its capabilities during the harvest. It came with two headers - a standard 8-meter and a 12-row one for sunflowers - which provided flexibility. The threshing mechanism combined rotary and dual drum technology, achieving efficient processing. Tires showed decent wear but were serviceable. Minor updates, like filter replacement, were necessary. Interesting machine overall.

Used the Lexion 480 on our farm for a while now. Honestly, not bad, just gotta keep on top of the maintenance. Changing fluids and greasing stuff takes a bit of time, but as long as you do it, she keeps going. I like that it's pretty easy to get into most of the service points, except for a couple spots under the auger - those are a nightmare. Always ends up with someone getting covered in grease, but that's farming I guess. Ran it on wheat and barley, no big hiccups. Starts up without issue, haven't been stuck with any surprises (except maybe some pesky critters in the tank). For the price, it's fair, but not super cheap for parts. The cab isn't the best for comfort if you're in it all day, bit noisy too. Gets the harvest done though, especially with a good cleaning and regular checks.

Recently had the chance to use the Claas Lexion, and I must say it's an efficient harvester. The engine's performance stands out, offering power while being fuel-efficient. I did notice, though, adjusting settings to optimize performance during changing field conditions takes some attention. Overall, it’s a reliable machine.

I have used the Claas Lexion 480 recently during the harvesting season. The combine is well-maintained and operates efficiently, though I found the cabin to lack some modern ergonomic features, which made longer hours a bit less comfortable. Noise levels were manageable, but they could be improved. Overall, a solid machine for its age.

Had the chance to operate a Claas Lexion combine recently. Its automated features like Cruise Pilot make it a technological marvel. Nonetheless, adapting to its new layout with advanced options required patience. Effective and innovative, though.

Ran the Lexion 8700 for a few hours. I normally drive machines half this size but figured, why not see what the fuss is about. Big cab, pretty dang quiet, seat’s proper comfy and controls make sense after you get used to 'em. It’s got touchscreen for settings and that cemos auto mode - mostly it just runs itself, but you can pull back when you want. Kind of a learning curve swapping from my Deere, needed a bit to get used to the monitor and all the options. Didn’t thrash the grain too bad either, which was good to see. Can't say the wiper in the windshield is my thing. With all the features and new tech, hope nothing breaks ‘cause that might be a pain. Not perfect but definitely more pluses than minuses.

Used this model for a whole season. The fuel efficiency thanks to its advanced power system proves beneficial and cuts down costs. The newly designed rotor length indeed boosts separation efficiency, yet regular maintenance is necessary to keep it up. On bumpy terrains, the auto contour system provided stable operations, which I appreciated. However, adjusting specific settings while in motion felt a bit finicky initially.

Been running the Lexion 480 for a bit now, picked it up based on its condition and what I've seen. It's a '98, but it's still working fine, no major fixes needed at all - that's kinda rare for a machine this age. I like that I didn't have to throw money at repairs right out the gate, just regular checks. Engine hasn't given me any stupid surprises. The cab is actually decent, I don't end my day feeling wrecked. Rubber's in better shape than I thought - mine still at like 80% on the front, rears were about half. Only thing is, I know eventually parts might get weird to find since it's not new. But for now, starts right up and gets to work, not much to complain about on the operation side.
