Tried searching the forum to no avail for info on these. Does anyone have one? Seen the hot horse and the nomad so far. Nomad seems less of a faff but I think the gas powered one may be better. Any comments please?
 
Yes I have one , I have one in the lorry but I
Got my dad to make me
One as we are not allowed to bath with hose on our yard so trying to get 2 horses bathed all season one being a Gray not ideal !!! Will get details for u
 
I have a Hot Horse Shower, absolutely love it & don't know how I managed for 20 + years without one! We bought the unit but their trolley is very expensive, so we bought a sack barrow from B&Q & OH mounted the unit & then secured the gas bottle at the bottom as I needed a mobile one I could put away. I only have a slight problem if the water pressure is low & it runs cold, you must also remember to drain it in cold weather. They are truly fab & I can thoroughly recommend!
 
Thanks ladies. The yard has a hot horse one but there's a lot of hoops to go through to use it I think and I thought I'd rather just get my own as could use it on horses at home as well.
 
The nomad is good, we just have the unit thing, not sure if they do one that heats it all for you?

We always have to take a top up of water, as it isn't quite enough to do two horses properly, plenty for one though. Always check you've charged the battery though, as we have forgotten to get it powered up a few times!
 
Have a shower king and there trolley/stand is only £50 compared to the hot horse one which if I remember correctly was around the £150 mark.
For the shower inc jet spray and trolley from shower king it came to £230.
Wouldn't be without it. Shower king also has excellent customer service.
 
I bought a shower king one in the spring, now I have it I'm wondering why I didn't get one sooner! I show most weekends and it's so much easier than buckets
