"Overall, very nice quality. My horse has very big, wide-set eyes and I don't feel the mesh stands away from his eyes like it could, it is a softer fabric than the Cashel brand. It does seem cooler than the Cashel, as he doesn't sweat so much when wearing this one. Also, we have sandburs and they do get stuck in the fleece lining. I do think my horse has very good visibility thru the mesh."
"I have tried several different brands of fly masks and the Schneiders® Mosquito Mesh® II Fly Mask with Ears has outlasted the others and is very high quality! Both of our mustangs suffer from sweet itch so they do alot of rubbing. The heavy duty mesh helps keep them protected from midges and other insects. The double velcro latches are definitely a bonus and I especially like that the neck covers attach to the fly mask to help keep everything in place. The fleece trim also is more gentle on their head and neck especially when they wear these a majority of the time. Will be purchasing more in the future!"
"I've bought many different brands of fly masks over many years but none of them work, or last as long, as the ones I get from Schneiders. Yes they are a little more expensive than some but will last a full season, if not longer. Other brands are torn up in weeks. I highly recommend the fly masks from Schneiders."
"It's a wonderful mask. I intended it for my quarter horse but it was too big for him so I passed it along to a friend with a warmblood. It fits her horse perfectly. So sizes are not the best but my friend is thrilled with it."
"My horse is so much happier without the terrible bug and fly bites he would develop lumps where bitten. I used every fly control out there plus special baths every week to no avail. We were both going crazy over this. Now we are able to enjoy our time together not spending it trying to heal him up. This has changed both our lives, simple fix HAPPY!! Very sturdy as well, beyond excellent product."
"I love the quality of this mask! The fleece around the pole in the nose is very soft. This see-through mesh makes it cooler for the horses. The sun protection is a plus. I would definitely buy these again."
"LOVE LOVE LOVE. Cannot say enough good things about the mask. Well worth the money. High quality you wont be disappointed and neither will your horse."
"I love these so much. My mare is quiet in it and never tries to get it off, whereas she is fractious if there are flies on her face! Love it."
"Good quality and I like the two adjustment straps, however the ears are very large."
"This fly mask fits and gives good coverage. I have tried many different brands, and this the my favorite one."
