Would Not RecommendDon't waste your money. This lifts off the ground in a gentle breeze. Doen't matter how many landscape pins you use. It just tears off the pin.
This Grass Fabric Works
Would RecommendThis is the only seed in fabric that I can get to actually germinate in my yard with success

Did not work at all
Would Not RecommendPrepped an area about 10x25 exactly as instructed. Laid down and watered as instructed. Bumpkus. And it's not cheap. I thought the concept seemed too good to be true, and it indeed it is. Recommend doing it the old fashioned way, or hydroseed.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the product didn’t perform as expected, especially after following the instructions carefull...
Installation
Would RecommendIt is easy to roll out into place. However, a heavy rain or wind will move the product. It is also difficult to know how often to water. I am only 3 days after installing and am still waiting for germination.

WORST PURCHASE I'VE EVER MADE
Would Not RecommendLaying it down wasn't too difficult, although very fragile so I tore it a few times when tightening it. BUT, after two days it looked like swiss cheese. Squirrels and chipmunks simply walking on it (inevitable!) absolutely destroyed it. In the sections that remained intact, the material just turned to goo and smothered the sprouts. Don't do it!!!!

Did NOT work
Would Not RecommendFollowed the directions, been a rainy, grass growing friendly spring and very little grass grew. Sorry I spent the money on this.

Easy to use, wouldn’t use it around chickens
Would RecommendEasy to put down, also easy to cut. I used it in a chicken run, hoping the chickens wouldn’t see the seed within the fabric. Unfortunately, they tore it up.

Maybe
Would Recommend7 days and nothing yet but hoping for something soon

Thankful for Grass
Would RecommendThe grass started growing around the 10th day. Putting dirt on the seams is important. If you don't and the wind blows before the growth starts, the strips will blow away.
From GrowTrax
It works where a lot of others didn’t.
Would RecommendTook longer than I thought to grow, but then you look real close. You see thousands of tiny like hairs starting to grow and then you know it’s working.

I'm Impressed!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was skeptical at first, but I have to say i am impressed so far. I laid it 6 days ago, watering it 3 times a day as instructed, and grass has already sprouted and is getting taller by the day. It is in full sun all day and doing great.

Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We installed 3 weeks ago and no sprouts. Watered at least twice a day. Had some stronger winds come through and a lot of the patches blew into the yard

Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I followed all instructions and no grass. I even used some top soil to help growth

I HAVE GRASS NOW!
Would RecommendI had trouble getting grass to grow in a shady place in the back of our home. The Shady version of GrowTrax did the trick. I have grass!! The key seems to be keeping the product watered as stated in the instructions.
