This stuff is tuff as nails but using it as intended is not likely. First off it makes your yard look like a mini-golf joint in some tourist trap town you went to as a kid. 2nd it simply doesn't work with 10 stakes as advertised...20-30 stakes per roll maybe an option if the mini golf look and added budget for 3x stakes works for you... Bottom line, it doesn't hold a nice shape/form unless you stake the livin stuff out of it...

This is my third or fourth time buying this product. It looks really good and has held up well, even after years in the sun. And while it isn't the easiest to install, it's no more cumbersome then other buried borders. Just have patience and take the time to do it right. Lay it out in the sun to remove the coil that formed while packaged, use a couple rocks to assist in holding it flat if you need to expedite that. Prepare your trench; maybe your sandy soil is different but there is no pushing or hammering this (or anything) into the ground. And while you can bend it to 90 degrees, that bend can't be undone. It also cuts to length very easily, but like a hard bend, that also can't be undone.

While not the cheapest, it's the best value I've found. Will definitely buy it again next spring for my next project.

Used it for edging ~200linear feet around my home. Buried it ~3", used hammered out 6ga copper bent into spikes, which I added by drilled a whole 2" form the bottom and drove in.

It's straight up terrible for long straightaways. It basically looks wavy and warped the entire length. But on the curved sections (the majority), it looks passable, and where it's warped I can blame on the dirt still not being fully packed (we did a lot of regrading and tilling that loosened things), and I can correct most of it by pressing the dirt more with my foot against the warp.

For the price, it works great. Once I set it in the sun for a couple hours unrolled it became a lot easier to work with, though the very inside end I recommend cutting off about ~4", otherwise your connections between boards will just look terrible.

For joining them I just overlapped ~6" and used a couple stainless sheet metal screws.

Unrolled easily and there was zero issues getting it to fit the design I had. Bought two rolls and 10 stakes, only ended up using 5. Used a shovel to slice the ground first, ended up burying an inch or two of the product and it worked PERFECT.

Easy to install, makes a clean finished border. The quality of this edging is superior to any I've found in a garden center or home improvement store. Very rigid but easily trimmed to size with tin snips.
