Choosing between a compact wheel loader and a tracked mini skid steer? If space is tight but the work still calls for lifting and bucket control, the Agrotk KRW23 and TYPHON STOMP 502 are two compact options that take different approaches. Both are new machines from China, and both carry the compact classification, so the decision mostly comes down to price spread and platform. The question is which trade-off fits your jobsite: a lower entry point on the wheel-loader side or a different platform on the tracked side.
Quick verdict
The Agrotk lists for USD 5,875; the TYPHON lists for USD 6,499. The Agrotk is the lower-priced unit; the TYPHON is the tracked platform in this pair. If the price spread matters most, choose the Agrotk. If you want the tracked layout, choose the TYPHON.

Product notes
Agrotk KRW23 Wheel Loader 0.8 Ton Mini Skid Steer 23 HP RATO Gas Engine Compact
The Agrotk KRW23 is a compact wheel-loader layout with a 23 HP RATO gas engine and a 0.8-ton rating. Its 0.25 m³ bucket and 1000 mm bucket width give you concrete bucket-volume numbers to work with, and the 90° discharge angle is useful for dumping into a truck or hopper. The color is listed as yellow, and the unit is marked as new and compact. If a wheel-loader platform fits your jobsite, this is the one to start with. The limitation is the platform itself: you are choosing a wheel-loader layout over the TYPHON's mounting style, so on loose ground or steep access the other machine may fit better.
TYPHON STOMP 502 1958lbs Mini Skid Steer Loader 22.1HP Honda Gas Engine 3 pump
The TYPHON STOMP 502 comes with a 22.1 HP Honda gas engine and a 1958 lbs operating weight. A 1084 mm total width supports the compact-footprint story for tight entries, and the loader geometry presents a different design from the Agrotk. Model year 2026 is the newest-dated item here, and more than 20 optional attachments are part of the package, so there is room to expand the machine's role later. This is a solid choice when you want a Honda engine and a newer model year. The limitation is that the TYPHON leans toward platform and engine, while the Agrotk gives you bucket capacity directly.
The bottom line: both are new and compact, so the final choice is less about condition and more about whether you want the wheel-loader route or the platform-detail route.
Final choice by use case
Choose the Agrotk KRW23 if you want the lower-priced entry and a wheel-loader layout. Choose the TYPHON STOMP 502 if you want the different platform and engine package.
