Very happy with it. I just wish it had another fastener in the front. Plan on getting another one for my donkey

Purchased for my 16.1 Trakehner gelding who doesn't fly spray (sigh . . .) So far has stayed on through the night without shifting much. A little concerned about how warm he will be in this when the weather gets hotter. Like the gussets, surcingles and the fleece at the withers but definitely needs a second chest buckle to keep it in place. I would have given it 5 stars had it had this feature. Would definitely recommend.

Pony's first sheet

I bought this fly sheet for our leased pony. I think by the way he reacted to my putting it on him, it is the first blanket he's ever worn. It took 3 days or practice but he is now very comfortable wearing a fly sheet and it is holding up well. It's been about a week. He is turned out about 20 hours a day with a small mini donkey so he isn't being attacked by the horses fangs and shenanigans. I will try it in horse size for one of my horses who are both very rough on their clothing and see how it holds up.

I have a Centaur fly sheet on a horse that is turned out with 3 others. It fits this horse perfectly and has held up for 2 summers now. No bite rips in it or tears. I bought a fly sheet for my pony and got the smallest size. It was way too long on the sides. :-( and they had a new "panel" down the back (I guess to make it last longer?) I have another Centaur Wicked fly sheet coming for my 1/2 Percheron, that always seems to have problems with the size fitting his roundness and NOT pulling from the withers to the front of the neck. Sheets slip back some, due to not a lot of "withers." I will let you know how it fits him. BTW I'm not crazy about the panel down the back. Seems thick and a little warm, but maybe in horse size it doesn't cover too much of the back?

This is the nicest looking fly sheet ever. My horses do look very professional wearing them. But it just isn't very good
On the bad side, they absolutely need a second lower strap on the front. The sole front strap is too high and it pulls the blanket. Both of my horses are about 77 inches long. All 78 inch blankets and sheets fit or are a bit big except for this one. It fits the 15.1hh mare just fine but the 16.1hh gelding his shoulders and withers just are too big for it and it won't stay together at the front.
Also this is not very durable. On day two of wearing the sheets the gelding got jealous and nipped a 4 inch chunk out of the middle of the back of the mare's sheet. He ripped this way too easily for this to be a truely useful investment for very long.
So unless your horses are very dainty with their clothes and if your horse runs on the small side of it's size without being very tall through the shoulder they will fit but you might need to modify the front closure and add something to keep it closed below the installed chest strap

Protects from flies and keeps the coat clean. Only problem is it is heavy when wet from rain and takes a bit longer than scrim to dry out. Washes well in cold water.

Last summer (2010) a friend bought one of these for her horse. She liked it, I liked hers, and so I bought one. Loved it ! I quickly bought two more for my other mares and have been 100% satisfied ever since. These sheets are soft, light, fit well, look classy and are durable (my horses live outside 24/7). They also wash easily, and dry quickly. All three sheets lasted through the 2010 summer season without any problems. I had a few people ask me what brand they were. Now, this summer (2011), my horses are wearing them again. Excellent product.

My mare has never ever so much as torn a sheet and I've owned her for a decade. She's been out in a herd of 16 rambunctious horses and only gotten small tears that were easily patched up from other horses nipping at her during play. The first day this sheet was worn she came in with it entirely shredded and she was out by herself! The fit was also a little odd since it's for multiple sizes but it fit well enough. Overall, I'm simply not impressed and will not buy Centaur products in the future.

I finally got to try this fly sheet, and it was not as good as it looked. The drop is short, and the overall sizing is much smaller than other companies. The front buckle is adjustable, but it has a vertical velcro which is not adjustable. Neck areas do not have sikly lining, so when my hrose lowers his head it does not slide and all the pressure is on his withers. Amigo products are much, much nicer.

Fantastic Sheet. Bath them and put this on while drying in the summer under fans....great. This sheet is warm on their top line. Great in April and May to turnout but too hot for turnout in the real summer months. Cool nights and need bug protection this is perfect. Long on the sides. Shoulder gussets fit well on the broad and big horses. Drapes the TB's. Soft. Stays put. Holding up to washings. Great sheet to keep them clean at a horse show if too hot for a sheet. Warmer than a scrim sheet. But keeps your grey horse clean and bugs off.
