Many highlight its effectiveness when mixed with grass seed and appreciate how easily it spreads and levels uneven ground. However, some customers express frustration about inconsistent composition, noting excessive wood chips, mulch, and debris requiring sifting. Despite these concerns, the majority consider it a reliable, worthwhile solution for lawn restoration and report repurchasing it repeatedly.
Customer review summary generated by AI, including incentivized reviews.It's predominantly mulch and rocks.
The bags contained a mixture of both mulch and rocks as their primary contents. Fortunately for me, I employed a roller tool to help distribute the product evenly, which allowed me to successfully apply a new layer of mulch onto my flower bed area.
I have used this soil several times over the last
Would RecommendWorks great for starting seed.
Too early to see results.
Would RecommendLost some of my Zoysia sod due to lack of rain. Heard this product would help in keeping the ground moist so the shoots have a chance to root and grow.
Garbage in my opinion.
Would Not RecommendMaybe the nutrient are there but no the quantity or quality in my opinion. Bought 6 bags to test it out and used a topsoil spreader to apply them. I couldn’t believe the amount of sticks that are worthless for your lawn. I do not recommend.

Good Soil for Lawns - old and new
Would RecommendThe composition of this lawn soil is definitely conducive to the growth of new grass and thickening of the current lawn. It was even more noticeable in those areas where I patched certain areas and not others.
Worked for me
Would RecommendDon’t really know enough about soil to go into specifics but it seems to really have helped my grass seed take root because I now have grass growing where it wouldn’t before. I guess it does have the nutrients seed needs to grow. It was easy to spread and level out.

Great composition!
This top soil is excellent for repair areas. After another cable company dug up areas in my yard for T-Mobile fiber optic lines, I used this topsoil and seed to repair the areas.
Perfect
Would RecommendExactly what we needed for some new lawn seed going down!
