Review on SavvyGrow Realistic Astroturf Rug 5 Ft X 8 Ft- Premium 4 Tone Synthetic Astro Turf, Easy To Clean With Drain Holes - Patio Grass Backdrop - Non Toxic Eco-Friendly (Many Sizes) by Tim Crowder

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect solution to a muddy problem

We have a couple big dogs that race down the stairs into the back yard. Over time the repetition killed the grass and resulted in a mud pit at the base of the stairs. I didn't want to seed or sod because it would just happen again.Bought this turf patch because it was affordable and had good reviews. I figured it would be a one season solution. But it ended up lasting a couple years. Did exactly what I was hoping - stayed in place and kept the base of the stairs mud free.I had to pull it up when we moved out of the rental. I was surprised at how good of shape it was in after 2 years of abuse. Feel kinda bad throwing it away because it could probably be reused for a couple more years.I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this turf, and I'd definitely buy it again. I uploaded a couple photos of the install. Think it took a couple hours, but I tend to take my time on projects. Can't remember if the turf comes with spikes to secure it in place, or if I bought those separate. But I'd recommend a 50 pack so you can cover the sides and spread them out in middle.
