Hello,
I'm writing about our recent stall front purchase via Amazon
and wanted to share with you the before and after pics of our
3, 10x12 stalls. We were very happy with the quality of the product
and have already received compliments on them. I did however
want to inform you that I think you should rework your instructions
as they were a bit complicated. Having built stalls before using
a different product I at least had an understanding of how to
put them together. The first time stall builder may not?? Perhaps
a short 10+ min YouTube assembly video would have been awesome
or better quality color pictures on the assembly process would
have been nice. Additionally the self tapping screws were a pain.
I had more wasted time with them. If I could go back in time
and had a metal drill bit I would have predrilled the holes.
Lastly, one of the fiber bags holding the screws ripped out inside
the box during shipping so we were concerned that we lost parts
before we ever began also because everyone of the boxes we're
ripped open by the UPS folks from handling. Food for thought.
I would recommend your product and also thanks for the ample
amount of screws etc!

"My husband, Mel Gale, is very
talented - a non-horsey guy who accommodates his wife very well!
For reference, here's the stall with the mini in it. Plenty spacious!
Mel used 3/4-inch thick tongue and groove to mimic the look of
my horses' stalls.
After Mel installed the wood, it only
took him 30 minutes to set up the rest of the stall ... and this
was our first time doing so. The floor isn't 100 percent level,
but we were able to adapt and make it work. It looks good and
it's safe!
Since we were unable to use the second
stabilizer bar due to the door placement, Mel cut off the prongs
and installed it on the diagonal to better secure the door frame
to the adjacent panel. Great idea, right? And it does the job
perfectly. I touched up the cut area with a little paint to keep
it looking as nice as the rest of the stall frame. We intend
this to be a permanent installation.
Thanks again for providing a quality
product that allowed us to build a beautiful and practical stall!"
Best,
Joan Todd

To CMI,
Thank you for the quick service and quality product. We built
custom stalls and doors and use the jail bars to fit accordingly.
The swing out feeders are very nice, it eliminates the liability
of having people in the stalls to feed while horses may be in
there. I researched several different company websites and your
product appeared to be easy to work with, and I was correct.
I called with questions about door kits and the fellow on the
other end was very helpful. Shipping was easy and quick. Thanks
again

Thought we might share some photos of our
new mini horse barn. We couldnt be happier with the quality
and look of our new CMI stalls! We built our own cross buck style
inserts for our 3 sliding doors that added a nice touch and the
country look we were going for. It wasnt hard to just build
then and slide them in the frame in place of individual planks.
We also like the structural look of adding reinforcer bars to
reinforce and break up the long 8 and 12 wall spans.
We chose to buy extra channel framing to use at the bottom of
all our wall panels and sliding barn doors. They protect the
wood and add a nice finished look. We also painted all the sliding
door hardware black to match the black metal grills. We prefer
this look to the bare metal roller channel and hardware and all
it took was a can of spray paint. The stall kits were very versatile
and made it so easy to design the layout we wanted. We get so
many complements on our CMI stalls!
Thank you for your helpful service and
fast shipping!

I ordered an 8500 Trailer recently - Just wanted to drop a line,
it arrived very well packaged, assembly was quick and easy. All
parts fit together perfect and there was not fight to assemble.
I have been a metal fabricator for years and build many of my
own implements and tractor attachments so I am extremely picky
about how items I purchase are built. I was extremely pleased
how this trailer is built, very well designed , thought out and
heavy built.
Funny, my other half asked what I thought after assembly, my
reply was "very happy, its built like I would build it".
Thanks for putting out a nice product
at a good price - Extremely pleased.
Thanks

Hello Country Manufacturing:
I received trailer yesterday and assembled
it.
Everything fit with no drilling, reaming
or hammering required. Its a robust, well designed and well manufactured
implement.
I attached a picture. It was well worth
the wait.
Thank you from a satisfied customer,

Good Day Folks,
I would suspect that each trailer is used
in as many different way as there are customers. I wanted to
thank you for the help and support in the order process and share
with you how mine is currently loaded. One thing which you may
wish to consider would be to add a trailer jack to the accessory
options, it is much easier to one stop shop. I would
be happy to answer any questions, or should you wish provide
additional photos for your web site.

· 200 Gallon Water Tank
Once I get through fire season and the
burn piles this winter Ill remove the equipment and use
the trailer in other ways.

The wagon has been instrumental in
moving material from a staging area to a work site that is inaccessible
by larger machines. The project was to construct a causeway about
80 long through a wet area. About 12 tons of 3/4
pack make up the 5 wide road. Some of the road was armored
with 1.9 tons of 3-5 stone (rip rap) to prevent collapse.

The ATV wagon we purchased from you
has been an excellent tool for feeding our sheep flock and moving
all sorts of things around the farm. We feed our flock of 400
merino ewes daily with it in winter. It handles the whole 1900
lb 4x4 square alfalfa bales we feed well. We purchased the hand
operated dump bed feature with it. When needed I can dump the
whole bale 1900 lb bale. A few custom features I added were a
simple wood rack to the front of the wagon to keep the hay bale
from flaking off towards the tongue (its made from the
wood the trailer was shipped with, a 3/4 inch plywood bed, and
a welded on extension to slip a piece of pipe over the jack pump
for more leverage along with a tab to make releasing the jack
easier. To load the large sized hay bales I stage them with a
loader tractor by double stacking them and use a bar to push
the top bale off onto the hay wagon. We save money in fuel and
wear and tear on the tractor by only having to operate it more
than once every two weeks. We use 4 gallons of fuel every two
weeks in the ATV to feed our 400 ewes hay and corn twice daily.
Feeding the flock by myself is done simply and safely. I pull
the wagon forward, walk back and push a flake of hay off the
bale, walk back to the ATV, pull it forward and then repeat the
process. With any other other feeding vehicles tractor, pickup
etc., to feed safely two operators are needed. Another feature
I like about the wagon is if the whole bale isnt needed,
I flake off the amount of hay needed from the staged double stacked
bales onto it. Some bales dont flake well and make bulky
loose piles of hay. The side racks keep the loose hay on the
trailer nicely. Being able to efficiently feed large square bales
of alfalfa saves us a significant amount of money on feed because
4x4 bales are the least expensive hay package here. The wagon
is also useful year around on the farm not just for feeding.
Thank you for the well made product and excellent customer service.

Hello,
Just wanted to say thanks for the great
product!
We finished our stable using your modular stall systems. We now
have four 12X12 box stall (leaving two panels removable so when
our mares foal this spring they will have 12X24 stalls)
We did weld the panels in place instead of using the "modular"
connections.
It looks great. It's very solid and functional.
I've had a number of people ask about the
panels and was happy to tell them where I got them.
Again thank you for the great product!

Just wanted to tell you how happy we are
with our new stall fronts and walls. Jen has been great to work
with and has very nice customer service. The kits are exactly
what we needed and all parts just what we ordered. We customized
a little so we had to order a few additional parts. Thanks for
selling them separate. This really helps. Also ordered hay racks
and bucket holders. The barn is starting to look super nice and
we are pleased.
Thanks again

Folks- last year I purchased a 7500 and
just picked up a 8300 and 8500 yesterday for my cattle\timber
farm. This Company is a class act. Office staff was ready with
paperwork and shipping guys loaded me in about a minute. Everybody
had a smile. Just like the 7500 purchased previous, the 8300\8500s
are perfectly made, not even any marred paint. All three wagons
are made to be worked; made for years of service. Efficient,
simple designs. Every piece fits, the welds perfect, good wood
utilized, and great paint jobs. Value received!! Buy from this
Company and you will not be disappointed!!

Here is a nice photo of a Model
8300 2 ton wagon being put to work. Photo submitted by Bill Ulrich

"I am now a year into using
one of your Model 8300 wagons. I own a 50 acre farmette
with about 20 acres of pasture, 20 acres of woodlot/orchards,
and about 2 acres in vegetables for our use. Your wagon is now
my default go-to for about 80 percent of what I need to move
on the property. It is rated for 2-ton and I routinely haul that
weight (and almost certainly more) cut stone on some pretty rough
trails. My 6x12 three ton has gotten used exactly once since
I bought the 8300. The wagon gets used and used hard between
hauling stone/firewood/fertilizer/whatever. The test of a great
piece of equipment is that you dont think about it when
using it it just functions as expected without any issues.
Your 8300 clearly fits that category and it does what it is supposed
to do without notice.
Great job on the design and construction.
Bottom line - I love the thing and am looking at purchasing a
second 8300 as soon as I sell the 8x12 wagon".

Here is a nice example how
a model 7740UTV trailer can serve multiple purposes. This customer
built a custom frame to mount on the model 7740UTV chassis as
a combination water hauler and sprayer. The bed can be removed
by taking out the pivot pin and the watering frame slides into
place. When he needs the bed back on, the watering tank frame
slides off and the bed can be reinstalled. That is American Know-how
at it's finest! Thank you Bret Cox for bringing this by for us
to see! |

Model 5400 FYI --I purchased this 30-35 years ago and still
being used to today. Some changes Ive made, beefed up the
frame some, welded small blocks to keep the side board stakes
, upright. New tires. Wood is getting rather rotted and could
use a paint job. Other than that ,I still use it frequently.
Been a pretty tough little trailer. Oh yes the price has more
than doubled!! Doing again, I would probably buy the trailer
with the hydraulic dump feature. I do think you make quality
equipment, not the plastic stuff on the market today. Ive
been satisfied Jerry Savaloja Walton KY |

can be removed when needed to use as a jack)and i also put in
nylon strips for the dump arm to ride on and also nylon on the

Sometimes, you need to modify things
to make it suit your specific needs and that is just what Tom

These photos show why modular
horse stalls can be a real convenience. Kelli Butler says "The
first few photos are from a stall I had to put up in my garage.
My new barn was not completed in time for the mares to foal in,
so we had to get creative :)" Modular horse stalls can be
moved to different locations much easier than support post horse
stalls as Kelli's photos show.

I am very happy with my recent purchase
of the Zero Turn Tractor, snow plow. I have included some photographs.
We have pretty good snows in Northern Maryland. I am waiting
for the big snow (Murphy's law............... now that I have
my blade). I used the blade to clean up from a snow storm from
1 1/2 weeks ago. To give the tractor extra traction I inserted
some 5/16" sheet metal screws into the turf lugs. It gives
it a good bite on my hill, without the bulk, that snow chains
give. The purchase from your company went very smooth. I will
buy from your company again. I have shared photographs of my
plow with other zero turn owners who are impressed with it.
Thanks for your help,

"We dont get too
much snow in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, so alot of my friends
looked at me kinda funny when they saw the blade on the front
of my zero turn mower. They werent looking so funny when
I drove by them as they shoveled their drives this morning. Of
course, I offered to help...
We had about 8 inches last night
and the photo is of me clearing my Mini Storage Lot. The blade
works well, but I need to make a few modifications for my JD
425 to fit it properly. Ive also added some pins and bolts
for stability."

feeders are used on these stalls. These horse stalls are used
for stalling Warmbloods.
