GL Artificial Grass Mats 12ft x 79ft Roll - Custom Cut Synthetic Turf

In this review the GL Artificial Grass Mats 12ft x 79ft roll is evaluated for homeowners and small-business users who want a large, ready-made turf area without ongoing upkeep. The bottom line: this 948 square ft artificial turf is best for patios, balconies, dog runs and event spaces that need quick installation and low maintenance. The biggest reason to buy is its weather resistant, UV-proof construction combined with a water resistant latex backing that makes it easy to clean and suitable for indoor or outdoor use.

Key Features

• Premium construction: High density polyethylene yarn delivers a soft feel while remaining durable for regular foot traffic and outdoor exposure.
• Weather resistant: UV-proof fibers and water resistant latex backing keep color stable and help the turf dry quickly after rain or cleaning.
• Drainage ready: Built-in drainage holes in the backing allow water to pass through instead of pooling on the surface.
• Custom sizes: The roll arrives in the marked dimensions and can be cut to fit balconies, decks or pet areas without fraying.
• Easy upkeep: Low-maintenance surface wipes clean and resists common outdoor dirt, making it practical for high-use locations.

Who It's For

The 12ft x 79ft size is aimed at homeowners, landlords or event planners needing a large continuous turf surface for patios, rooftop gardens or play areas. It is also a practical choice for pet owners wanting a washable, low-maintenance run or for commercial displays and utility trailers where a realistic grass look is desired.

Those who should look elsewhere include buyers who need a thicker, premium pile for heavy landscaping installs or sports turf with shock absorption; some customers report varied impressions of thickness and durability, so high-impact athletic applications may require a specialized product.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Looks realistic and maintains color thanks to the UV-proof fibers.
• Large roll size reduces seams and is convenient for covering broad areas.
• Low-maintenance and easy to clean, with drainage holes to prevent pooling.
• Customizable cutting allows simple fitting to irregular spaces.

Cons

• Perceived thickness varies among users, and some note it feels thinner than premium landscape turf.
• A few buyers report fraying under heavy wear, so check edge finishing when installing in high-traffic zones.

Our Verdict

The 12ft x 79ft GL Artificial Grass roll is a good-value option for covering large patio or balcony areas quickly with a realistic-looking turf that stays color-stable outdoors. It is especially well suited to pet areas and decorative installs where low maintenance and drainage are priorities; however, buyers needing a thicker, heavy-duty landscape turf should compare pile height and edge durability before purchase.
