This artificial grass feels and looks great. I plan to put it around our outdoor pool (which I haven’t set up yet), and everyone can’t wait to have it over the hot cement pad. The grass came in a roll and needs to be brushed to get the blades to stand up instead of laying flat. The grass has longer green blades with tan or brown shorter blades deeper down, giving it a very realistic appearance. The backing seems very solid, and the grass does not come out easily. We rolled it out, and the family walked on it with bare feet. We were all surprised by how soft it is and how cool it stayed in the hot sun. We’re really looking forward to stepping on this later in the summer when it gets really hot here.
