This is an okay product. I have no regrets about using it but it’s important to make an informed decision. It’s very inexpensive and it’s extremely easy and quick to install. Aye, there’s the rub. You’re saving money and you’re saving time, and the trade-off is that you’re getting lower quality. It’s very hard to get this perfectly straight, particularly because the summer heat will make it expand a little and cause it to warp. You’ll need to pull it really straight and tight to keep it from warping. Because it’s “no dig” and doesn’t go deep into the ground, grass rhizomes can easily creep under it so there’s always grass seeping through the edging. The winter freeze/thaw cycles will also cause the stakes that hold it down to slowly rise up out of the ground, so you should expect that every spring you’ll need to grab your mallet and hammer them back down. Speaking of stakes, you’re going to need a LOT of extra ones. It doesn’t come with nearly enough, particularly if you’re installing it straight and don’t want it to warp.
Like I said, it’s an okay product. I would buy it again and the final results look nice, but it will never have a truly “professional” look like you spent a lot of money or time on it. If that’s what you want, you’ll have to buy a more expensive product and work a lot harder installing it.

Works well. Buy more stakes.
I installed this to keep rocks from spilling into the grass.
It wont do a great job of keeping grass from growing under it as there is not a lot of plastic under the edging.
It doesnt come with a lot of stakes. Buy more to make sure its secured in the ground.
Super easy to install and easy to cut.
The mower deck will have just enought clearence to mow over the edging.
I live in upstate NY with the most snowfall of 2019 season, so will see how it holds up.

Edgy Curbside Appeal
As you can see in the picture the difference on appearance when you add this edging. I did have to buy extra anchors because I had a few roots to customize the edging. I think this will keep the mulch from running off lol. I am so excited about the new look.

Best thing since sliced bread.....
Used 120' of this to put around my deck and pool.... This is holding in 64 bags of stone.
Really turned out nice. Pics attached.
Also used another 60' of this stuff on the side of the house to hold in mulch around plants.
This stuff is so easy use!!!

I set my edging in the sun for an hour which made it pliable. Could have used a few more spikes to keep it in place. Perfect for flat surfaces. Has been in front yard for a month and looks/works great. Easy and fast to set up and looks great!

I REALLY wanted to like this product, and when I first put it down, I did! That was two days ago. It was about 60 degrees F out and overcast. It was dead straight; with 1/4". I pegged it every 5 hole. Instructions say '10 normally'. Today is 66 and sunny. The stuff looks like an inexperienced Sailor on their first liberty!
I'll try resetting it with it being warmer and hope that works better.

Hi Mack. We appreciate your comments and the time you took to install the edging. In this case, it sounds like the temperatures heated and then cooled the edging. This type of weathering can create a wavy effect. You are correct - it is beneficial to install the edging after allowing it to warm in the sun and then pulling it tight between spikes. This will allow the edging to expand and contract with temperature fluctuations. We hope this helps and again, we appreciate your review. If you would like to share more comments or images of the edging installation, please contact us at customersupport@dimexcorp.com.

This product was easy to use but out of the two boxes I bought one of them was missing all of the spikes for the installation. Maybe they shouldn’t have an open window on the box for viewing. Since I don’t exactly live close to a Home Depot I went to another hardware store close to my house and bought some other spikes.

We are sorry to hear the spike pack wasn't in the No-Dig Edging you purchased. We understand and apologize for the frustration this caused. The box was originally designed with a window so customers could see and feel the product tabs, height, thickness, etc. We are currently revising our packaging, which will eliminate this issue in the future. Please contact us at customersupport@dimexcorp.com so we can correct the issue. Again, we apologize for the inconvenience and would like to make it right. We look forward to hearing from you.

Works great. Easy to put down. My mower goes right up to the edge of it. My only recommendation is you are using a riding lawn mower is do gentle curves so the mower can fit into the curve. I have used this on all my mulch beds.

I was very pleased after I unwound the 60 ft roll. I did remove the grass and lined the flower bed with this edging kit . I did not use garden cloth and placed 4 inches of rubber mulch along the entire bed. Hoping that the grass does not creep past the edge kit.

Super easy to install the unit. I would suggest that unwinding as best as you can before installing would be a wise move...sun helps relax the cold plastic material and it is much easier to get that smooth curve instead of that kinky/ragged line. Works great!

My first project was to create a walkway from the driveway to the front door, we selected this to use for edging and to keep the mulch in place. So glad we did, it was so easy to install. Looks great!

Very easy to install. I bought more spikes because it didn't come with enough to do the job right. It only comes with 18 so I bought 24 more. A spike every 3 ft wasn't going to keep it in place on my hill side.

The No-dig landscape edging kit worked like a charm. I purchased enough to cover 120ft. I was able to use any excess to hold back pebbles for my French drainage system to prevent flying pebbles when the grass is being edged. It was great not having to dig trenches. So easy to nail in the long spikes supplied with the edging. I highly recommend this product. It will make your yard look beautiful and reduce the time and effort to install. Great product!

Yes we wanted to contain mulch in a large bed under the evergreen trees so when mowing now was on the lawn. We did dig deep ditch before installing it.

I used this product two weeks ago to separate landscaping mulch and a river pebble walkway up against my house. The edging doesn't sit up very high, but it was suitable and cost-effective for my needs. It was very easy and quick to install. I wouldn't use this kit if I was putting it between a mulched area and yard grass (as shown on the packaging). It just doesn't provide enough height to properly mulch.

I would recommend the Vigro landscape edging due to its ease of installing and the way it looked after it was installed; however, we didn't feel that there weren't enough landscaping spikes to firmly secure the edging--only 6 spikes were included and there were 63 holes. We had to make another trip to Home Depot to get a package of 8 additional spikes. All that being said, the product was easy to use and the end result was beautiful and just what we needed to keep the grass out!

This product is awesome. We were struggling with how to separate the different types of ground cover (washed river rock, decomposed granite and cedar mulch) in our new flower beds. The flexibility and hole pattern design for securing to the soil makes it super easy to use.
