Horseware Amigo

[GinaB]

Are their turn out rugs any good?

 

[Lexie81]

Sorry to Hijack but i was going to post the same thing, considering one for Milly!

 

[WandaMare]

I ve been pleased with mine. Fit well and keep them dry, I think they are very good value compared to some of the other makes

 

[ForeverBroke_]

Yup, yup yup

As good as Rambo if you ask me.

I'm Horseware No.1 fan , btw

They're whole range.

 

[Lexie81]

Yes WandaMare thats what i thought They were the most reasonable at my local tack shop and looked good quality to me but I've not ahd to buy new rugs for ages! Was hoping to go back and get one today but realised the tack shop shuts at 5 so will go tomorrow and purchase one!

 

[LouB]

Yep. We have have gradually changed all of ours on the yard so they are Amigo.
Very good value for money.

 

[WandaMare]

Originally I just had the lightweight turnout but last winter bought the medium turnout, and also the detachable neck cover which fits both rugs. They've lasted well and I would expect to get at least another couple of years out of them which is excellent for the price

I have the stable rug, excellent value washes well but bought the 1200 denier LW turnout in navy nice fit etc a little heavier feeling than I expected so expected it to pperform really well, I didn't one afternoon of heavy showers and Len came in soaked and shivering this was in July still using it a bit but put his rambo duo shell on if there heavy rain forecast.

 

[shady_lady]

absolutley LOVE amigo!

 

[gillianfleming]

I have a full selection of turnouts plus mw and hw stable rugs, absolutely love them, think Rogers have all done at least 2 winters and havn't even had to have them patched.

 

[GinaB]

I can't decide whether to buy a LW and let her use that then go straight into HW pr buy a MW and hope it isn't too heavy too soon. She is an oldie at 29 though so may appreciate the MW more?

Or anyone any 6ft turnouts they don't require?

 

[cjdjivanovic]

Brilliant - I can't think why anyone buys the Rhino / Rambo ranges when these are so good.

 

[Chumsmum]

Love the MW and HW turnouts, however, the LW is not so good...

Stables rugs fine too.

 

[Honeypots]

I use the Amigo Medium weight on my wimp. In winter I add a 100gram liner (its actually a premier equine one). This works really well and kept him warm and dry all last winter.

 

[Hullabaloo]

I have a light weight and medium weight and they are both excellent.

 

[tina_day56]

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. We have both turnout and stable Amigo rugs

 

[alfirules]

I have got the 600 denier LW for Marco. i am very pleased with it, It has nylon lining which doesn't rub which is good for marco cos he had rubbed shoulders from wearing winter rugs. I like it cos the can't really overheat in it as its so thin. so if weathers unpredictable, its great!

Although the downside is mine does leak when rain is heavy.

 

[FestiveSpirit]

Turnouts are fabulous, although IMVHO the Rhinos fit my horse better (so I have a MW Amigo and a HW Rhino)

 

[Ziggy_]

They are pretty good rugs IMO, BUT make sure you go for the 1200D, not the 600D as some have been known to leak.

 

[ofcourseyoucan]

the higher the denier the longer the rug will last. amigos have improved enormously in the last couple of years. ow cut well on a par with rambo

 

[rosiesmumof4]

have a newish heavy weight and m/w - both excellent, also have a 15yo m/w which has been absolutely fab and still used as emergency rug.

 

[twinklepony]

they are great rugs, fit well and last well, both my horses have them and they don't rub at all. I noticed a great selection of them on www.24tack.com if you are looking to buy

 

[reddie]

In ,y opinion they are good rugs. My TB has a lightweight rug and it hasn't rubbed or leaked
