Fast and easy to use. Seems to hold up well.
Mariann V from Michigan
Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that I just put the rope up and haven’t even moved the horses home yet. I’ll try to remember to revise it after some time has passed. That said, I purchased the Intellirope as it was the best quality at the most economical price. I was pleased at the quality of it once it arrived. It’s been easy to install. So far, I highly recommend it!
Valerie T from North Carolina
Fantastic product! I extended my pasture and decided to use this fencing again as what I have had for a year has held up beautifully. It is easy to string up and manage, holds a good charge and is highly visible. I fully recommend the IntelliRope!
Diane from Michigan
Like the product, however the only issue I've had is that the rolls were inconsistent in length. I bought 5 rolls and when I positioned my posts I used the first roll that I grabbed it happened to be the longest one by over 30 feet. This may not seem to big a deal but I ended up cutting down 3 trees that were now in the way.
Tim P from Ohio
I had some issues with this rope and breakage. Premier responded very promptly, offered several suggestions and likely causes. They also offered to analyze the broken sections of the rope when I got it out in the spring. Customer service is outstanding, and I have plan and no concerns about returning this rope to work in the spring.
