Way better than plastic edging!
I ordered this product to create a definitive border between a perennial flower bed and lawn. The product arrived on time. The core-ten steel edging already had some orange coloring on it which will continue to deepen as it ages. This is the look I wanted. I had never installed metal edging before and was not sure of the best method to connect the pieces. I found a YouTube video produced by the company. It shows exactly how to prep the soil, and connect the lengths together. It also demonstrates how to bend the metal for a curved border. I took their suggestion and used a rubber mallet and pliers to bend the connecting tabs into place. This worked very well. I am really pleased with the look of this edging. Much nicer than the standard plastic edging.

Sturdy and attractive
It's a little challenging to work with at first since it's a pretty sturdy steel product and joining the pieces together takes a little getting used to. That said, it's a great looking product and I wouldn't hesitate to order again if needed.
