Rambo Turnout > Reviews

Advantages: Breathable, comfortable, waterproof and hardwearing.
Disadvantages: absolutely none

I just can't praise Rambo rugs highly enough. Two of my horses have Rambo Turnouts on all through the winter. They both live out with access to a dry shelter and the rugs only come off when I ride them, about twice a week in winter. These rugs are warm and comfortable, they never slip and are completely waterproof. On the coldest night of the year you can slip your hand under these rugs and your horse will be as warm and dry as toast. It doesn't matter ... Read review

Advantages: Everything
Disadvantages: The cost!! But well worth it

I have 2 rambo turnout rugs, the standard rug and also the wug, the wug is the one with attached neck cover/hood. Both of these rugs are of superb quality, having owned them for 2 years I have just had them washed and re-proofed and they look as good as new. The shiny inside material is excellent for making your horses coat shine!! I use my rambo's on both my old mare (21 years young) and my youngster who is only 3 and neither of them have any ...

Advantages: Tough, effective, fit
Disadvantages: Not cheap

...vary hugely in cut. The Rambo is generously cut so you do not have to buy a bigger than usual size. They are also cut quite deep so they are great for a broad or deep barreled horse or pony. In fact they are one of the few brands I have come across that seem to suit both horses and ponies. Appearence is fairly irrelevant as any turnout rug will soon be covered in mud, but these look pretty smart and are available in a range of colours. My horse ... Read review

Advantages: Completely waterproof and non slip
Disadvantages: Pricey

My heavyweight rambo turnout rug has been nothing but fantastic since i purchased it. From day one its been completely waterproof in all kinds of weather, its never slipped despite some extreme rolling by my horse and my mare has happily lived out 24/7 with her clip and stayed lovely and cosy. It hasnt snagged on any of the fences either and nor has any of the other horses left any snags on it whilst they were playing The down side is the price.. ... Read review

Advantages: Cosy, great fit, easy to fasten, lightweight
Disadvantages: Expensive

...always dreamed of owning a Rambo Wug, and saved religously to buy my first. I am not disappointed at all. I have used my Rambo heavyweight turnout for several horses, and it fits them all superbly, from a skinny Thoroughbred to my chunky cross bred. The Rambo rug is easy to fasten, although the cross surcingles do have a type of locking elastic band on, so can only be turned one way to release them. The lack or leg straps means that I never ...

Advantages: Lightweight, Breathable, Waterproof, Cosy and Snug!
Disadvantages: Expensive but worth the money

I first bought a rambo rug 5 years ago and that one is still going strong! Although they are expensive you certainly get your moneysworth. They are light-weight, breathable and totally waterproof (and guaranteed to be so for 3 years, so no expensive reproofing for three winters). They also have a satin type lining which keeps your horses coat all smooth and sleek and makes rug removal a doddle. Mine fits by TB Mare perfectly, no rubbing or slipping ... Read review

Advantages: The rugs are watertight even in torrential rain
Disadvantages: When used on my Welsh Cobs they tended to rub the shoulders

...I was first introduced to Rambo Rugs some seven years ago. Once tried I never used anything else. I found them to be watertight even in a huge downpour even at the seams. Even when very wet the rugs were still reasonably lightweight to carry and dry - often drying quite easily in a barn or tack room overnight. The only problem I had with the rugs was a slight tendency to rub on the horse's shoulder - this did not happen to every horse - and those ... Read review
