All three make good balers, probably boils down to which has the closest and best dealer. Some years ago I was at a farm show where they had properly cured hay to demonstrate balers on and the JD made the best bale for that type of hay.

Net wrap costs about $1.50 per bale the last time I checked. I'm satisfied it will save that much in unspoiled hay. Wrapping with net wrap is much faster, the bale has to only take about 1 1/2 turns to wrap.
