"Just purchased only used twice. But would recommend for an easy going horse."
"This is a soft lead rope and it feels nice. It almost has a bit of stretch. Unfortunately, the loosely woven fibers also snag very easily. I can't imagine it holding up and looking nice for long in a barn environment. Customer service was great about it, though."
