Do you use a hay hutch?

[worldchimp]

Was thinking of puchasing a small hay hutch for my horse to use in the field? Any body whos uses one, please can you offer any advice/suggestions/feedback about using one? Are they worth the money as look expensive on the website? Also, does anyone use the extra strong one which is made from motorway crash barrier?

Thank you in advance.

We have one large and one medium. They work well, keepinng the hay or haylage dry when it rains. I was fed up with having so much hay destroyed by rain and snow. With the increasing price of hay I think the hutches have paid for themselves by now, we've had them for a couple of years.
