They said they LOVE it. They have a dog and used to have grass which the dog left a mess and was a lot of trouble to upkeep. This has made it a piece of cake. The water bill, no mowing etc.
[/quote]Not to get gross or anything, but anyone who has owned a dog knows that what they deposit is not always, shall we say, firm. It is going to get down between those blades and, if you don’t catch it for say a day or so (entirely possible), it is going to dry and be next to impossible to rinse out with a hose.
Even if you don’t have a dog, there are birds flying overhead who often do rude bomb releases, there are the wandering rodents, there are all kinds of things leaving stuff behind in your yard.
At least with real grass, it gets rinsed every couple of days, vacuumed (with a mower), and even replaced through the grow-n-mow cycle.
I personally can’t imagine having what amounts to outdoor green shag carpeting covering my property.
To each their own, though.
