GallagherSmart Fence 2 | Portable Electric Fence for Livestock Containment | Quick Install Temporary Field Fencing | 328ft of 4-Strand Electric Fencing with Built-in Posts and Reels

Bought for protecting garden area from deer. Really needed its portable and flexible design. I’ve had to expand garden area and remove for topsoil delivery. So making changes is accomplished easily. The solar charger unit is necessary but ideal for my needs. The coiled wire (fabric with stainless steel wires) easily covers garden perimeter of 50 X 90 feet. The ten posts a part of this kit were not enough so I also purchased several of Gallagher’s temporary Fiberglass posts.

Just not for dogs that jump. Very easy to put up and great quality

I really like this fence. I can set up a rather large fence or paddock in a very short time by my self. Originally bought it to keep horses out of my vineyard but now using it to graze my alpine (large breed) goats on parts of my pasture during the day. This will really help me out until I can get permanent fences built. Been using with my goats for a month now with no escapes. I recommend this fence. Going to get a second on soon but my local farmers coop carry Gallagher equipment and is actually cheaper by about $60.

Good product but posts are flimsy. Needs more tie down rope and handle is too small when reeling in the wireProduct works good though

Very flimsy cheap material. The handle snapped off while putting the fence up. In order to set up the fence you have to put the stake in the ground and walk away from it which pulls out the electric wire, it doesn’t take a lot of force however it was somehow enough to snap the handle off of the wire roll. I would not recommend getting this product due to the quality, almost $300 and we didn’t even get once use out of it. Save $200 and just get a roll of wire and step in posts from tractor supply.

Well worth it for a portable fence option. I have a couple acres. With these I can move my sheep around as needed.

This is a wonderful tool I wish I could have bought more I wasted money on netting

The idea is great. The actual product needs a little more thought.Mine came missing 5 of the orange tie-outs and pins for the poles. Of the tie-outs that ARE there, the tensioners are rediculously ineffective. They just don’t stay tight.The pins on the end of the poles are quite easily bent, and if you have particularly hard or rocky soil, the plastic step-on tabs used to push them into the ground are too small and too soft. I’m actually surprised I haven’t broken one yet. The poles themselves, while I like the design and features, are too soft and wobbly. They need to be stiffer. Driving them in takes 3 hands: one to apply downward pressure to the pole, one to hold it straight and steady and one to pound it in from the top.Again, I think the design is top-notch. My bull got a horn wrapped around one of the wires and took it for a jolly ride before I got the solar charger connected and turned on, but nothing was broken and it seems to be working well now that it’s up.
