FAQs

What is the fill weight of the Rhinegold ‘Orlando’ Stable Quilt?

The quilt features a 300gsm (grams per square meter) polyfill, which is considered heavyweight.

Is the neck cover included with this rug?

No, the neck cover is available for purchase separately.

What material is the rug made from?

The rug is constructed from 600 Denier polyester.

How should I wash this rug?

It is recommended to brush off loose dirt first. For washing, use a cool machine wash with a specialist rug wash. Avoid harsh detergents and fabric softeners. Always air dry.

Is this rug waterproof?

The product description emphasizes breathability and warmth rather than waterproof capabilities. It is designed as a stable rug for insulation, not for turnout in wet conditions.

What are the benefits of a breathable rug?

Breathable rugs allow air to circulate, helping to prevent the horse from overheating and reducing moisture buildup, which keeps the horse more comfortable.

Can this rug be used for turnout?

While durable, this rug is primarily designed for stable use. For turnout, especially in wet or variable weather, a rug specifically designed for outdoor conditions would be more appropriate.

Troubleshooting

Rug appears too small or too large

Refer to sizing charts and measure your horse accurately. Ensure fastenings are adjusted correctly for a snug but comfortable fit.

Horse seems too hot or cold

Consider the ambient temperature and the horse's condition (e.g., clipped, age, breed). This is a heavyweight rug, suitable for colder conditions. For milder weather, a lighter rug may be more appropriate. Ensure breathability is not compromised by dirt.

Material appears damaged or worn

Inspect regularly for tears or weak spots. Small repairs can sometimes be made with rug repair kits. Significant damage may require replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: This stable quilt is designed for straightforward use. Ensure the rug is the correct size for your horse to prevent rubbing or discomfort. Lay the rug evenly over the horse's back before fastening any closures.

Compatibility: This stable quilt is intended for use in a stable environment. It is compatible with standard horse sizes. Note that the neck cover is sold separately, so if full coverage is desired, this must be acquired independently.

Care: To maintain the rug's performance and longevity:

  1. Cleaning: Brush off loose dirt and debris after each use. For deeper cleaning, follow the manufacturer's instructions, typically involving a cool machine wash with a specialist rug wash. Avoid using strong detergents or fabric softeners, as these can damage the fabric's waterproof and breathable properties.
  2. Drying: Allow the rug to air dry completely. Do not tumble dry or place near direct heat sources, as this can degrade the materials.
  3. Storage: Store the rug clean and dry in a rug bag or breathable container in a cool, dry place when not in use.
