Good pond stone. Easy to work with. I asked for pallet to be set on driveway. They put it directly on my grass on the front lawn on an easement. I called customer service which was basically non existent.

Very easy to work with in my yard. Looks amazing.

Best price rock mix to put around the trunk of new plantings of trees. The rocks keep the base of the tree trunk dry to avoid diseases that can develop with bark mulch which hold the moisture. They also look nicer.

False advertising
This is the most deceiving advertisement I have ever seen. I bought 18 bags and to my surprise the pebbles were not as it shows on the picture; the pond pebbles were mostly black and gray.

    Rocks are a lot smaller than most of the photos!!!
    Rocks are a lot smaller than most of the photos!!! A lot of these photos online the rocks look larger. The Bag of Rocks that got delivered are a lot smaller. more like the main photo or smaller. I took photos.

      The image is of rocks when they are wet. The actual color of the rocks are a dull gray. Not what I was expecting at all.

      The coverage was great, pebble’s were not too small or large, I used mainly for erosion but they were a great addition to my landscape, they were easy to spread , I used 69 bags and plan on purchasing 10 more

      Not what described
      The bags are half full and the rocks are far less than 1/2 inch. Can't have half rocks and half dirt. Home depot should correct their description on the website as they are quite misleading. I bought 50 bags and it is a waste as they won't achieve their purpose. I am supposed to buy another 100 bags and will go to another provider if I can get the proper bags from the Home Depot. Such a disappointment. If I could refill the bags and return them I would. That's so unfair to the customers.

          Ok, so I'm reviewing a bag of rocks. I considered a few aspects of this, and decided I would review the bags of rock and Home Depot's pallet and delivery. As far as the bags of rock - yeah, they are what they appear to be. I dropped a star as probably one out of four bags had some kind of added non-rock item, such as a stick or root, and a decent amount of rock debris/sand. Not a big deal, and not enough to be a problem but still shows some QA issues. I bought four pallets (64 bags per pallet) and had them delivered. Two out of the four pallets were great, the other two had been bumped or scraped and had holes in maybe four or five bags on the sides. Enough that I had to shovel up rocks after moving the empty pallets. I also had one pallet that included (at no extra charge) a sizable large red ant hive. That was fun to sort out :). One to the rocks. I had a fence installed recently, and in preparation I used a sod cutter to remove the grass along the fence line and put down weed fabric. My goal was to create a 9" to 1' border around the fence line to reduce issues with lawn mower and weed whacker damage to the fence. I decided on bags, even though slightly more expensive, rather than getting a ton or two of rocks dumped on the driveway. It was easier to wheelbarrow bags of rocks rather than double-shoveling rocks into a wheelbarrow - well worth the added expense in my opinion, at least for this situation. The rocks themselves are easy enough to open the bag and dump. The bags do include a decent amount of small rock/sand, if you want the rocks to look pretty upon placement, I'd recommend rinsing first. For me, I figured the first couple of rains could handle that for me. It worked for me, however it did need more than I had estimated. The finished product is great though.

          Pebbles are great, but they are not the color shown above. They are white and gray and dull. Used them anyways. Eva use I was desperate to cover a muddy area. Delivery could be better. Got a call they should be delivered in 15 mins. 30 mins later I got an email with a picture of someone else’s house with a pallet of my rocks. Luckily I was able to call the driver and have him go back to get my rocks. End the end it all worked out, kind of wish the rocks were as pictured.

          Bags are consistent and the rocks turn whiter as they get washed by rains. Bag size is good for weight, much heavier and they'd be more difficult to lift and move about. Good quality for the price.

          Was great, now its chunks of concrete
          I bought hundreds of bags for a big landscaping project. Unfortunately, for the last 20 the quality decreased very significantly. It went from nice rocks to chunks of concrete. The only suggestions from customer service was to find different rock or return the unopened bags and keep trying until I found better quality bags. Vulgarisms quality issue is now on me to figure out.

            The rocks looked as pictured (better after dust is rinsed off!) delivery in a timely manner and unloaded as expected. Pallet was wrapped in plastic and arrived clean and dry.

            Nice colors
            When rinsed, the stones are very pretty. Lots of different hues, colors, and even some agate looking stones. Very pleased with the variety.

            Exactly what I expected! 10/10
            Affordable decorative rocks that does the job. I’m happy with the results. Although, color does change when wet. Dry rocks are more natural. I mean, it is meant for ponds. But, it still gives out the look.

              Good looking rock
              Nice looking landscape rock. I bought 80 bags for my project, had about three that varied a little bit in size/appearance from the rest but overall very happy with how they turned out for my project.

              Love these rocks.
              Very heavy but at least in manageable bags, wish I had a pickup truck 🛻, I could get more. Love the overall look but I have so many more paths to create.

                Misleading photos
                Purchased 12 bags of these and when I went to pick them up, they are nothing like what is shown online. They are a fraction of the size and the color is not a tan/white but a black/dirty brown. They had other bags on a second level shelf and they (store #4622) would not let me check those to see if they were any better or the actual product I ordered.

                  Love it
                  I met my expectations. Getting them in individual bags made it easier to manage and allowed us to do it as we had time. I love how it looks. We are going to do the rest of our landscaping with it.

                  Check the color!!!
                  We ordered this exact stone last August from Home Depot and used it on a landscape project. It was great! It was mostly gray stones with a few more white and even reddish ones mixed in. Looked very nice. Bought 20 more bags to complete another project in the same part of my yard. Same SKU, same label. Stones were ORANGE and much smaller. Definitely not the same product. Did not improve color after spraying them off. See pictures for the inconsistency.

                    Inconsistent
                    I had purchased 70 bags a few months bag for a large project. At that time, the pond pebbles were as advertised and great quality. I recently needed to add a few more bags to expand and cover a small add on area but now the same product is way different color and mostly pea gravel size. Very disappointing

                      Erosion
                      I used the stones to stop an erosion issue and the stones didn't disappoint.
