I didn't like the way this grass looked when the sun was on it because it sparkled but then I realized it was wet. When it is dried out, it looks fine but it really doesn't look like natural grass because it is too green. I imagine most artificial grass looks this way. It has variated color in it to look natural but we are in a drought and no lawn looks this good. It is keeping weeds out. That was the main reason I bought it.Used this for a 10x30 dog potty area. We put it directly over sand and dirt. It has held up for 3 years and we are ready to replace now. It does hold on to urine smells, a bit more in the summer so have to use a kennel cleaner solution. We will use an ecogrid with gravel system this next time around to see if the drainage improvesLooks like real grass. Bought this to cover holes my dogs dug in the dirt. They love laying and rolling around on it. Highly recommend. No weird smell. Came in a roll so it was easy to manage.This is great for people with little to no yard for their pets to do their business. It looks and feels like real grass and cleans easily. The only caveat - hence the four stars - is that it gets hot when in direct sun. My pup and I both found that out the hard way, so I'll be purchasing a large umbrella for the deck very soon. Other than that correctible problem, it is so worth it!This pet grass is awesome! We installed it in the end of March, and the pictures that I posted are of it today. So it's been in almost six months. When our dog poo,s on it and we pick it up it's very easy to rinse off. And when she pees it goes through into the ground underneath. We haven't had any problems with lingering odors, we used a lot of nails when we put it in so we haven't had any problems with it coming up at the edges or anything either. Extremely happy with how well it's holding up. It's not coming apart at all. Used to be a little muddy area that she would go in to use the bathroom and she would come back in with mud on her paws and it was a pain in the butt. Putting the pet grass there it's one of the best things we've ever done. We dug down a couple inches, we added this crushed gravel stuff that we got from the Landscaping store. We were going to rent a compactor , but we had a really good rain and that rain seems like it really binded everything together so we chose not to rent the compactor. We just stomped around on it a lot. We leveled it and then laid the pet grass down on top of it. We only had to trim off a little bit of the pet grass to make it fit, because the size we ordered was almost a perfect fit it was just a little bit too big. Then we use the whole bunch of nails all the way around we started like in the middle and worked our way out that way there wouldn't be any bumps or bulges in it. For the area in the picture we used 400 nails. I guarantee you our pet grass is not going to come up. It's like almost any place you go on that pet grass if you were to look down into it you can't go more than a couple inches without seeing a nail. Of course we fluffed the grass up after we nailed it down so when you're actually just looking at it you don't see the nails. I would highly recommend the pet grass.N/AHeavy mat, looks like real grass; easy to "install."THE GOOD - The grass is great couldn’t be happier with the product!THE BAD - I ordered an 11’x28’ piece and received a 10’x28’ piece. The packing slip even had 11x28 written on it. I contacted Petgrow and they said if I sent them pictures they would be more than happy to take care of it. I sent them pictures and have not gotten any response from them. So not only did I get the wrong size, they also didn’t refund me the difference in the sizes. I had to put in a flower bed to make up for the grass being the wrong size. So I figured in total I am out about $200 on top of what I paid for the grass. BUYER BEWARE!!
