GL Artificial Grass Mats 2ft x 17ft Faux Turf Roll - Customized Size

In this review of the GL Artificial Grass Mats 2ft x 17ft roll, the bottom line is simple: this lengthwise, ready-made turf is best for small patios, balconies, pet runs and indoor displays where a narrow strip of realistic-looking grass is needed. The reviewer found it delivers natural appearance and easy upkeep thanks to UV-proof fibers and a drainage-backed construction, making it a practical choice for buyers who want a low-maintenance turf that can be rolled out, trimmed and used immediately without professional installation.

Key Features

• Premium materials: The turf uses high density polyethylene fibers that feel soft to the touch while remaining weather resistant for outdoor use.
• UV and weather proofing: The surface resists fading and holds up under sun exposure, which helps preserve color and appearance over time.
• Water-friendly backing: A water resistant latex backing with drainage holes allows quick pass through and faster drying after cleaning or rain.
• Ready in a roll: Supplied as a 2ft by 17ft roll the turf can be unrolled and used immediately, saving time on installation.
• Customizable sizes: The manufacturer will cut or provide customized sizes so the same material can fit many small spaces or unusual shapes.

Who It's For

This turf roll suits homeowners and renters who need a narrow strip of artificial grass for a balcony, narrow patio, deck edge or a pet run where a natural look and simple maintenance matter. It also works well for event decorators and hobbyists who require a realistic grass surface for table displays, dollhouse landscaping or temporary installations.

Those who need heavy-duty commercial turf or very thick pile for high-traffic sports fields should look elsewhere, since customers report variable impressions of thickness and durability and some trimming or fraying can occur under rough use.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Looks realistic and provides a clean, green surface ideal for patios and balconies.
• Easy to clean and dries quickly thanks to drainage holes in the backing.
• Comes ready in a roll and can be trimmed to size without fraying when cut carefully.

Cons

• Some customers note the turf feels thinner than premium options and may fray sooner under very heavy use.

Our Verdict

The 2ft x 17ft GL artificial turf roll is a practical, value-focused option for anyone needing a narrow strip of realistic grass that installs instantly and stays low-maintenance.
