I've been thinking of replacing my NH 273 with a higher capacity baler. I was wondering about the pros and cons of the small inline balers by case ih, hesston, or massey. I'm sure they are all made the same. Like chevy and gmc.

that is all I have ran for some years now. I use them because they make the nicest bale out of anhy of the balers, many more leaves because of the low pick-up and a tight and consistent bale because of the pre-packer chamber and the auger feed system. They may not be as high capacity as the Deeres and New Hollands, but I bale with bale baskets and the resistance to the plunger may slow the capacity somewhat.

I priced the Hesston and NH in-lines (new) at my local NH dealer who sells both and for equivalant units the NH is about a 1000 dollars higher. I really didn't see much difference but they both appeared to built very light. I guess that doesn't mean bad.....Good luck

This year we went from using a New Holland 270 and 310 to a Hesston 4590 and you would have a hard time getting us to go back to a conventional baler. The inlines make a much more consistant bale, we've gone from alfalfa to wheat straw and back again without adjusting the tension and heavy or light windrows don't make any difference. It seems to me like the inline balers put more leaves in the bale and their low profile pickup seems to leave the ground cleaner as well. It takes a load or two to get used to having the baler directly behind the tractor but once you get used to it it's nicer than a side pull baler. I can't think of anything on the New Hollands that I liked better than the Hesston and we had no complaints with the New Hollands.
