I have a John Deere 946 with impellers and have mowed quite a lot of alfalfa with it. I would not own a roller machine. It is plug free and works very well in alfalfa and grass. You can set it to where it will do absolutely nothing to the alfalfa or you can set it to where it will "meal" it (which you don't want, of course), or set it anywhere between these two extremes. A common misconception is that the impellers "beat" the hay. They do not. They only feed the hay through the machine and create a suction that allows this. The actual conditioning comes from the hay rubbing on the hood over the impellers and the compression that this causes. The hay is actually compressed against itself rather than through rollers. I have seen more damage from the cutterbar than from the impellers. I am very satisfied with the impeller system. Most folks around here that try it would never go back to a roller machine. Mike
