Reviews
SmartPak Ultimate Neck Rug is rated 4.1 out of 5 by 98.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from My horse has the Ultimate line in a sheet and light turnout with a detached sheet hood, a medium combo neck, and a heavy combo neck. I love the 10-year warranty and have no complaints with the quality or fit! The Velcro straps are SOOOO long, and I wish they attached to the blanket a little tighter, with a breeze the part by the wither just flips up.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Warm, but poor attachments. This neck cover keeps my boy warm, however the attachments are not durable. The d-ring attachment that’s on the blanket tore off and along with one other attachment. His neck cover is now hanging on by one attachment. I hope he doesn’t lose it before I can send it back. It’s so cold right now that I don’t want him to not have a neck cover. Thank goodness this has a 10 year guarantee. I think I’ll be replacing it every year unfortunately…

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Poor attachment and durability I originally bought an Ultimate with an attached neck and Smartpak did an awesome job of replacing it when it was destroyed by gelding play. However they replaced it with a detached neck blanket as the attached neck was not in stock. I have had nothing but problems from this set up. First the Dee rings that attach to the wither disconnected, making the neck useless. Then the elastic and Velcro that attach then neck came apart. I have used the replacement for a total of one week (across two winters) and it’s terrible. The neck falls forward when the horse’s head is down, the attachment points are weak and poorly placed too high on the wither so the neck is constantly slipping, and the poor construction means the neck attachment has design failures from the start. I have been super happy with the attached neck, but if you want a detached neck blanket specifically, go for a Weatherbeeta or one in the Rambo line where the neck actually attaches securely.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Design could be better Perfect fit! The medium is great for my petite TB mare who wears a 78 blanket. The standard size that comes with 78 blankets is large, so I was excited to be able to get her a size she wouldn't be swimming in! I don't love the placement where the buckles attach to the inside of the neck rug itself. It allows it to slip and fold forward creating a gap just in front of the withers. Sometimes it also twists sideways. I do however, like how easy it is to put on and take off. It makes changing blankets easy. I would give this 5 stars if they changed the placement of the buckles!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Rug!!! I bought this a month ago. It keeps my horse dry in the rain and snow. Best rug I have owned!!!

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Nice neck rug, attachments need improvement The neck rug is awesome. Easy to use and looks and works great so far. The issue is the neck attachments. They are a few inches long, so the neck rug slides forward and back. Thus has rubbed my gelding mane in a spot that is soon to be bald. I took the straps and looped them through the blanket ring, in order to shorten the straps. The neck rug is now attached directly to the blanket instead of being 3 inches or so away. Then taped the snaps so they wouldn’t get caught in his mane. This neck rug would be 5 plus stars if SmartPak could modify the attachments by shortening them.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from I love the blanket, not so much the hood. I bought this maybe 2 weeks ago. - I love the blanket. My horse got a new pasture mate and has managed to destroy 6 - now 7 blankets within the last 3 months. I was really hoping with all the great reviews about this blanket and the warranty I would be able to not have to worry about sending the blanket back already! The neck rug needs some work. The blanket and hood need more attachment pieces. The hood flies up when he goes to eat hay/grass/drinking. I would say it needs at least 5 or 6 more attachments. The gap between the neg rug/blanket is about an 2 inches.. THANKFULLY SmartPak's customer service is amazing and I will be sent the Ultimate Combo to try to see if it will be more sturdy for him instead of the separate items. I would recommend this blanket to a friend - only if your horse is not in a situation like mine as I know other boarders on the property have it and love it and have not had any issues. I think in my particular case, my pony being a pony, he gets pushed around.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Great look, good water repellency I know all neck covers create gap. But I'm not settled. I like the ventilation, but I also want more cover. This is my idea. Maybe brilliant smartpak people can do it?
Date published: 2020-05-21
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Seemed to be fine until.... I bought four of these to attach to four blankets I also bought from SmartPak. Only used one so far. The one I used got multiple long cuts in the material when my horse took a fall while in turnout. I would think this material would be stronger than that, but it did save the horse from cuts! Getting it replaced was a hassle too. It took over a month.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Holds up well These neck rugs are great for horses, like my gray mare, who just love taking a mud bath! She has 2 so I can clean the layers of mud off one while she wears the other. At first, I struggled to adjust the velcro straps so the the neck rug would cover the top of her blanket adquately to keep her dry in precipitation and keep the base of her neck and withers mud-free. The first one that I bought for her was passed down to our large pony and I bought a large for the gray mare. She wears a 75" blanket and the large size neck rug is a great fit. Plenty of overlap over the blanket to keep her covered--even during her wild and crazy pasture antics. My 16.2 draft cross gelding wears 81" blankets but the large neck rug was too tight on his neck. So I bought him an XL Rockin SP neck rug and got the perfect fit! So my recommendation is to size up on these neck rugs for adequate neck coverage.
