Hi just wondered if anyone had any experience of these saddles? I will be looking for a saddle for my haffie that is to be backed next year and these seem reasonable in price. I have a saddle for my other haffie that was a very expensive treeless saddle that I bought from Kay Humphries and unfortunately cannot afford 2 of them! This saddle would only be used when my other haffie is ridden at same time. Any other ideas gratefully received. I like the treeless option just because they are so wide and tend to change shape so much throughout the year

I have a Freemax Acavallo saddle and its gorgeous. Extremely comfortable for both myself and my cob. Never have a problem with slipping, its supportive for both horse and rider and ideal as a general saddle of which I have in the past jumped with no problems. Would recommend that you have the Freemax Gel Saddle Pad also, but personally having tried many treeless saddles and this is the only one that I shall be using from now on.
However with all saddles, what suits one person/horse may not be ideal for someone else so trial one before you buy if possible.
My saddle fits both my heavy 15.2hh cob, as well as my 14.3hh Appaloosa x Cob perfectly.
