Hey there! It’s me, Toby, your favourite Chief Tester for all things hay and horse-friendly. Today, I’m here to tell you why ezehay is a total game-changer when it comes to feeding time. We’re talking about hay nets, hay net fillers, and how ezehay has made my life (and my human, Sam’s life) so much easier.

So, let’s dive in and talk about why ezehay beats those traditional hay net fillers any day!

The Problem with Traditional Hay Net Fillers

First, let’s talk about these things called “hay net fillers.” They’re basically frames that hold a hay net open while my humans try to stuff hay into it. In theory, it sounds like a good idea, but let me tell you, I’ve watched Sam wrestle with them more times than I can count. Here’s why they can be a real hassle:

1. They’re Clunky to Use
   Hay net fillers might seem like they’ll make things easier, but they’re not as simple as they sound. Sam has to fit the hay net onto the frame, and it doesn’t always stay in place. Sometimes the net slips off halfway through filling, and she has to start over. Frustrating, right?

2. Lifting and Tying is a Pain
   Once the hay net is filled, Sam still has to lift the heavy thing up to hang it on a ring and tie it up so it doesn’t drag on the ground. That’s a lot of work, especially when you’re lifting up to 13.5kg of hay! This lifting and awkward reaching can even lead to back strain and other issues, according to resources like The Horse on proper stable ergonomics.

3. Hay Nets Don’t Hold Much Hay
   Even after all that effort, most hay nets don’t hold as much hay as I’d like. This means Sam has to refill them often. All that stuffing, lifting, and tying for a net that empties pretty quickly. Not the best use of her time, if you ask me!

Why ezehay is the Best Option (No Hay Net Filler Needed!)

Now, here’s where ezehay comes in and changes the game. Instead of using a separate frame to fill a hay net, ezehay is an all-in-one solution that makes feeding fast, simple, and hassle-free. Let me tell you why Sam and I are both big fans:

1. Just Open, Fill, and Close—It’s That Easy!

With ezehay, Sam doesn’t need any extra equipment like a hay net filler. She just opens up the ezehay, fills it with hay, and closes it up—done in seconds! No slipping, no fiddling with frames, and definitely no extra frustration. She’s saving time, and I’m getting my hay faster. Win-win! Watch this video I filmed of her!

2. No Heavy Lifting on to Hay Net Tie Rings

One of the biggest problems with traditional hay net fillers is the lifting. Once the net is full, Sam has to pick it up, hoist it onto a hay net tie ring, and tie it off. With ezehay, there’s no need for all that. It’s designed to sit at a convenient height, so Sam doesn’t have to lift or tie anything up high. It saves her back and means I get my hay without delay. Research from Equestrian Studies shows that reducing repetitive lifting tasks like these can lower the risk of back pain and injury for our horse owners.

3. Holds Twice as Much as a Regular Hay Net!

The best part? ezehay holds 13.5kg of hay—that’s twice as much as a typical hay net! This means Sam doesn’t have to keep refilling it all the time, and I get plenty of hay to keep me munching happily. For horses, consistent access to hay encourages healthier digestion, as explained by Kentucky Equine Research on proper feeding practices.

What Sam Thinks About ezehay

Now, I can’t speak for Sam, but I can tell she’s happy with ezehay. She’s not struggling with hay nets or lifting heavy loads, and it saves her a lot of time. She’s always saying that ezehay makes feeding so much easier and that she wishes she’d had it years ago. And I think it’s safe to say she’s glad I don’t have to wait for my hay while she wrestles with a hay net filler.

Final Thoughts: Toby’s Choice

So, if you’re thinking about getting a hay net filler, here’s my advice: go with ezehay instead! It’s faster, easier, and much kinder to your back. Just open, fill, and close—no fuss, no mess, and no extra lifting. As a horse, I’m all about getting my hay on time, and ezehay makes sure that happens.

ezehay is Toby-tested, Sam-approved, and designed to make feeding time a breeze. Trust me, it’s the way to go!
