Thank you

Having never used the liners I cannot be helpful there but I do have stall mats and wouldn't have stalls without them.

I have mats and my neighbor had stall liners. They were really pleased with the liners until the ground became saturated from heavy rains. They started getting mold on the side walls where the liner attached and underneath the liner tubes. They had to remove all of them to get rid of the mold. Ouch! Very expensive!!

I am happy with my mats and have started using pelleted bedding on top instead of bagged shavings. The pelleted bedding works great with stall mats or any type ground covering that you chose.

Thanks for the input, I think I will go with the stall mat's, plus it will be better on there huffs, the liners sound like there are not very thick
