I am looking for a baler with net wrap. I would like some input from you guys what is the better brands. John Deere, New Holland, Vermeer, Gehl or Claas.

I like the other 2 replies.

NH & Gehl are popular here, JD & Vermeer have their following. Vermeer is a little far for a dealer, or I think they would sell more - they have some good design in them. Don't see any Claas stuff here - no dealer that I know of?

Case is probably becoming a real big seller the past few years - basically a NH machine.

I run a gehl 1875 and have no complaints with it. It's easy to change the density of a bale with the TDC system for different crops. It can make any size bale up to 5X6. Like the other post, you can see different colors all over the place, but if they weren't any good people wouldn't buy them. It's alot in what you prefer and dealer support. FWIW

Don't know anything about Gehl or Class except what I've seen in their sales lit. I live SouthWest of Houston and if you buy anything except Deere then you're an outcast. I personally am a Deere fan also but I have to admit, Vermeer with that bottom roller has got it figured out. Right now I'm talking to my banker (my wife) to see about getting a new baler next year and it will be a Vermeer. Deere on the other hand depend on the belts traveling in opposite directions to start and turn a bale and I'm not too crazy about that but everyone I know who bales hay around where I live run Deere.
According to the specs New Holland runs a good bit less hydraulic pressure on the belts/bales than Deere but they are good balers also. I see them everywhere when I go back to my home town in North La. My brother runs one and loves it. Tells my he will chew up my Deere with his New Holland.
Anyone ever notice you can drive down the road and see green in places, red just over the hill and yellow on the other side of town?
Overall, you're looking at some good name products and you're doing the right thing by asking questions. There's alot of experience and knowledge on this board.
Good luck.
