Can only speak about the Arcusin but I have had several and now run a E14 . Arcusin can take bigger Welgar bales and can take bales 4ft long ideal for truck transport. Yes you need another tractor but a new Arcusin has greater capacity than a baler and also with a pack reducer cage makes packs of 10 which fit on pallets a treat .
I do agree that Baron packs are tighter and Barons are very well built but you are stuck with baling handbag sized bales .

I don't know if it was just me, but I always had trouble with my Arcusin getting the packs tight enough. Occasionally the stars seemed to align and a combination of the type of grass and the density of the bales meant the packs came out well, but too often they ended up very saggy. And if I upped the pressure too much I would pop strings in the individual bales, which also made the packs looser. Now for my use it was fine, I was just shifting bales from field to barn, and then selling them out of the barn individually. But if I was expecting to rehandle the packs on and off lorries it would have been an issue.
