I have a 640 New Holland round baler and have had very good luck with it. It makes a very nice looking bale, that handles well and stores well (I store mine inside). It was a local trade in, to my local dealer. It was always kept inside and very well cared for. I probably paid a little too much for it, but was in a bind and needed a working baler (my old Vermeer had a bearing go out and we couldn't get the old bearing out). It was field ready and worked GREAT! In the end, I feel was worth all that I paid and then some. The only issues that I have had with it, is that after a few years, the twine tie cycle would want to repeat. It was an easy fix, utilizing this forum and the helpful knowledge, provided by Mike 10, in his tech write up section!
The only other complaint that I have is that it doesn't have the wide pick-up and can miss some hay. I tried for years to find some economical NH haysaver wheels, but had no luck.
A couple of years ago, I upgraded balers, still NH, but now have the wide pick-up and net wrap and the bale command monitor (my 640 just had the buzz box to indicate that the bale is made). However, I kept the 640 as a back-up and have used it a couple of times.
