Yes I bought one a few weeks before my mare got hurt. It has good wither relief and gave us even sweat marks. I loved it. I sold it because my mare is out for awhile yet and needed the money to pay some vet bills. I would buy another though.
I got the coupe 100% wool with black wool and brown leathers. I liked it better than my 5 star.
I have a SPH pad, I've had it for a year and a half now. I absolutely love it. It's soft and conforms nicely to my mares back. My mare requires a lot of leg when riding; we do all around work, so the cut out really helps. My mare also has a scar on her back from an accident last year. It's good sized, and the pad has never irritated the area, nor does it swirl any hair. I am also able to shim one side of my saddle successfully with this pad.
They are not made out of the same amount of virgin wool as 5 Stars, even though the owner tries to say they are "from the same place". I won't buy one since he flat out lied to me. :(
