I bought the 6' x 10' piece of artificial grass. I didn't do a lot of prep to the place I'm utilizing it. Turned it out and tucked it under pavers. What I did was raked and leveled the zone and removed any hard shakes, sticks, and so on. This is a little side yard region that is generally utilized for the puppies and a for kids who visit several times each week. But on the other hand is a peaceful, shrouded garden territory to sit and read. I do keep a shade cover during the summer days, so it won't get steady sun rays on it. Will rate this product 5 stars!
