[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The first thing we noticed is that this has a pretty intense odor, which yeah, I guess won't bother anyone since it'll be outside, but it still makes me question the materials and manufacturing process. It does seem pretty thick and stiff, which will be good for making a potty area for the dog that has mulch inside. The majority of it unrolls easily enough, but the ends are a bit stiff when it comes to uncoiling it and shaping the ends. Since it's solid colored and not painted, it shouldn't fade or get the color rubbed off (in theory). I wouldn't necessarily use it in an area where it's a focal point because it's not the most aesthetically pleasing, but it's good for our backyard where it's it going to be just seen by us.
