People here like the Vermeer rebels. 5400 I think is the main model number
Where on east TN are you? I'm in pigeon forge with the family until Friday

Can't go wrong with a Vermeer baler. Built very well compared to other balers. Maintenance is easy. Dealer support is excellent. Manuals are written in a logical format. Parts books give the bolt grade, diameter, length and threads per inch.

My father has retired from farming and is selling his hay equipment. He has a JD 435 baler with twine, electric tie, twine only. Has approximately 4000 bales through it. He is asking $6000. This is a good baler with monitor. I would have bought it myself but just dealt on a NH with net wrap. Baler is located in central VA.

The Vermeer rebels are good little balers. I ran a 5400 for an elderly neighbor and it worked great. Made a nice package. I traded a 604J for a new holland last week. My baler was a 1986 and would eat some hay. Our local Vermeer guy gave up the dealership so parts are an hour away and stocking is spotty at best. If you have a good dealer close by, the Vermeer is a great baler and well made. I wanted net wrap and I have an awesome new holland dealer within 40 minutes that treats me right, hence the reason for going red. I bought a Vermeer trail mower from Carter and Carter in Johnson City 10 years ago. Not sure if they are still in business, but they were great to deal with and were $3000 cheaper than my local guy. Good luck with your search.

Regardless of what others say Deere is the best round baler money can buy. They are not cheap but will out-perform all others. Vermeer invented the round baler and back in the late 1970's-early 1980's they were ahead of Deere for a short time. Then Deere quickly passed up everybody. I was a Vermeer dealer from 1985-1991 and I will never forget the introduction of the 504i baler with no means to raise the pick-up for transport. At the dealer intro they said after extensive research they determined there was absolutely no reason to ever raise the pick-up. After 1 year they offered a kit to add a lift mechanism. Also their double twine arms back then were pure JUNK. You will enjoy baling with your baler!!!!
