LOVSHARE VEVOR Steel Landscape Edging 40 x 8 Inch Steel Edging for Landscaping 3pcs Steel Garden Edging Border Landscape Edging Steel Lawn Edging Garden Edging Garden Border Edging Metal Edging

Short version: These are solid. Very thick and heavy. Easy to install if your ground isn't hard or rocky.Long version: We have intentional spaces in our sidewalk that allow the flower beds to extend through the sidewalk to the yard (see picture). I didn't want the rocks in the flower bed spilling out to the yard so I needed some sort or barrier along the edge of the sidewalk. I can't stand that plastic edging junk that is cheap and easy to find as it is a pain to install and doesn't hold up well. So, I gave this product a try. It is very thick and sturdy. I used a block of wood and a hammer to force it down in the ground along the edge of the flower bed. DO NOT hit the metal itself with a hammer as this will warp the metal and damage the finish. My method was to lay the wood on the product and hit the wood with the hammer, working my way from one end to the other and back until the whole thing was buried to the depth I wanted. I could tell I hit rocks in a few spots and that was pretty difficult, just more pounding with the hammer than in the rock-free spots. I had to turn a corner with this edging and that was when I really started to appreciate how robust this material is. It is HARD to bend. I got it done, though, and it looks great. Already had a few compliments on how sleek and clean it looks. Can't speak for the long term durability of the black finish yet but I suspect it will be just fine.

I was unsure when I ordered this edging, but it turned out to be wonderful. Thick quality metal pieces, but thin enough to bend around turns. The bottom of each piece has a sharp, sawtooth edge. If you have nice soft soil, which I do not, you could tap the top edge with a mallet to sink to desired depth. My soil is rocky, so I had to use a small pickaxe and lightly trench before using this product. I then used a plastic mallet to drive it down into place. The edge did not bend , nor did the paint chip or flake. The small connectors provided helped join the pieces and create a continuous top edge.I just ordered two additional sets to finish my flower bed. Awesome product. Don’t hesitate to purchase.

We have a very large plot in the front lawn, and bought several sets of this edging. We bought 8" edging, sinking it 7" with a 1" sticking out to weed wack against. Trying to prevent Soysia grass from climbing into the newly rototiller plot. Pros- the pieces were easier to bend than I expected, (but you need two people to make the slightest curve.)These are very sturdy, have good 'spikes' on the bottom for getting them into the soil. The stakes that hold the joints together look really nice. (see the cons side of that) As recommended the rubber mallet worked great. (see cons for that, too) Cons- The stakes that came with this 'splay' out as they go into the soil, and don't hold the overlapping ends together on a curve. We aren't sure from the pictures how much the pieces should overlap. YOUR RUBBER MALLET WILL BE SHREDDED. One side of ours was unusable so we had to go to the other side. That'll be shredded, too. This would work better with two people with two rubber mallets, but who wants to destroy two rubber mallets?Some of our boxes came with no stakes. We'll have to somehow contact the company about that.

This product worked out well for me. The edging helped keep my soil and mulch contained and neat. Especially out of my neighbors yard. My hedge is on my property line. I planted 25 blue prince holly bushes. I've received multiple compliments on the hedge and the edging. It's sturdy and attractive.

When I purchased this item I assumed the stakes would be longer than the edging based on photos. They were not. I could not return these for free and decided to keep them and make my own stakes to get them to work. They are durable and well made but just be prepared to make them work with some DIY. I think they will last a long time. Also, stickers I have to pull off on the product are just annoying!

This edging is a new favorite. It has been placed for two months and has shown itself to be durable - it’s resistant to lots of garden watering and also to scratching. We just bought a lot more of it. It’s not cheap but we feel it’s a good value after pulling out the previous owner’s wonky, expensive scalloped brick trim.We used a spade to create a simple trench of about 4” and the saw tooth edge at the base made the panels easy to tap into the trench with a soft mallet. Use a block of soft wood or an old book to buffer any tapping if you use a hammer or hard mallet. A hard mallet will mark the metal.

Actually bought this for my parents. They raved about how easy it was to install because of the teeth on the bottom, and that the stakes at the seams gave a nice polished look and secure structure.

I received these earlier this month while I was out of town. The 2 boxes were delivered on different days and my wife put them in the garage. I opened them today for installation. The borders appear to be good quality. Unfortunately 1 box had zero stakes and the other box had two stakes. All in all I received 2 stakes. The packaging leaves a lot of margin for small items such as the stakes to escape the package during shipment! Not sure who to contact for the extra stakes. They are needed for proper and consistent alignment. Very frustrating!

The quality and look of this product is great. I have been looking for a few years for an affordable nonplastic edging and this is it. So happy with my purchase . I will buy it again for my next garden project.

Very impressed with how thick and strong this edging feels and looks (not the flimsy aluminum edging you get at the big box stores).I can definitely see how some reviewers might complain about having a hard time bending this... it can take a bit of muscle, and a lot of time to make the metal stay at some type of curved form.But for my purposes (straight and a few 90degree bends), it was was perfect.

Good Product
