Horse loves this!

I’m Very durable and easy to install. Put it in an area in the stall where horse had been scratching. He figured it out in a few days!

I should have known it was going to be a huge stretch for this to be worth the money. Even after seeing the measurements online, I was surprised with how small it was. It’s stiff and hard to work with, and the hardware it comes with is useless junk. I used wood screws and attached it to a thick, sturdy fence post. Pretty sure my horse just thinks I’m weirdly decorating her turn out. She’ll scratch on every fence post except the one with the scratcher. I was hoping that maybe this would help her scratch and do some massaging, but I should have just ordered a livestock scratch brush instead. They’re cheaper and I think my horse would actually use it. I guess the quality of the actual plastic board itself isn’t bad but $40 ($35 on sale) for this? Why? Unfortunately I ordered it before looking elsewhere and it was much cheaper on a few other sites. There are also similar products that are much larger and look like they’re better designed for a lower price. Should have looked harder before I ordered this.

Made of very sturdy plastic. I attached it to my polebarn style shelter using baling string and it has not budged or broken. My horses took a few days to really use it, but now they enjoy it.

Attached it to a square barn post and the horses used it almost immediately. Seems sturdy enough.

I put two up on the opening (around the front post in the door way) of her shelter. It was used soon after and has continued to be used , probably dailly. They were difficult to wrap around the post , as the sheets are stiff, but I was able to do it by myself. The screws are low quality and I would ask for "star" screws but it did come with washers as well as screws. The product knobs are quite bulky and since the sheet doesn't wrap around flush ( because it's too stiff) it does offer an adequate surface .
