Master Mark Plastics 97220 BorderMaster Poundable Edging 6 Inch by 20 Foot, Black

Quick delivery, Works great

Was easy to use and added to look of house.Will add to more beds

Pros: Inexpensive, Black keeps them from looking dirty or showing any mildew, great for small areas, easy to make round.Cons: They will slice your hands up fairly easily putting them together, hard to assemble, They are only 6" tall (8" would be better), segments are 6" long which makes keeping a solid shape difficult. Not very easy to keep them in straight line*(see below)I intended to use these to make a peanut-shaped island in my yard and then to edge a sidewalk (straight). But they are very hard to get shapes other than round. First, they are very hard to put together but that's okay because that means they *should* stay together. The locking system on them is unnecessary as they should just have a straight male/female side since they are pounded in the ground. Despite what the direction say, it's easier to put them in with maybe 2 foot segments, pound them in, and then add another section. Make sure the ground is not just moist but wet. Here in Florida, they are no problem getting in the ground. The other review was from Colorado where the ground is rocky and I'm sure it was a nightmare to get them in.The other problem is getting them to all stay perfectly upright. When they come from the box, they'll be slightly warped which makes them difficult to work with. Let them sit in the sun and get hot and then they flatten out and are easier to assemble. These would be perfect for a small area, a mail box, or for an area you don't need an exact shape. For me, since they will eventually keep grass away from my mulch/ keep mulch out of grass, the shape I was able to get them in is fine.This is a cheap alternative to buying the expensive rock borders at Home Depot/Lowes. If you're looking for a temporary or a inexpensive solution, then I recommend these.

Looks great very sturdy, I’ll be curious to see how it hold up through summer.

In the first place, almost all of the pictures depict the product upside down. The points go down.I bought my first pack of this edging 2 years ago so it is going into its third summer and looks just fine..., especially considering that it has been severely weed whacked a couple times a month. One thing about this first packet I used. I have zoysia grass which is very thick, yet I used a large wooden mallet to drive the edging through it. It was fairly difficult and I broke one in frustration by hitting too hard.The beds that I have surrounded with the two other packs I purchased were done with a little more forethought. First I painted a line where the edging would go, waited for it to rain and while the soil was softened, I used one of those half moon edgers to slice a line on the paint. If you want to get your knees damp, you can practically push the edging down to the point where the points disappear. Use a wide rubber or wooden mallet. This will leave you about 4" or a bit more which is excellent for weed whacking and not hiding low plants in the bed.
