Premium Artificial Grass 7ft x 12ft Outdoor Rug - Thick 1.38in Turf

Our review of the Premium Artificial Grass 7' x 12' outdoor rug focuses on practicality for homeowners and pet owners who want a low-maintenance, realistic lawn surface. The biggest reason to buy is the dense, 1.38in pile that gives a noticeably lush feel underfoot while avoiding constant mowing or watering. In testing it as a patio covering and a dog potty patch, the turf proved durable and soft, and it handled light outdoor traffic without flattening quickly.

Key Features

• Thick Lawn Turf: The 1.38in pile creates a plush, natural-looking surface that makes small outdoor spaces feel like a real lawn.
• High Density: At 75 oz total weight per square yard the turf feels more thickset than many alternatives, which improves durability and cushioning.
• Fade Resistant Colors: The fibers resist fading and keep a green appearance without mowing or watering, saving time over live grass.
• Easy Drainage: The rubber back has drainage holes so rain and pet fluids pass through without pooling on the surface.
• Versatile Uses: It works as an outdoor rug for patios, balconies, decks, and as a DIY backdrop for events or fence decoration.
• Pet Friendly: The surface is safe for pets and can be used as a dog potty patch, with easy cleanup and quick drying.

Who It's For

This turf is ideal for homeowners with small yards, balcony and patio owners, and anyone who wants the look and feel of grass without the maintenance of natural turf. It is especially useful for pet owners who need a durable, quick-drying area for dogs.

Those who need a completely cool surface in intense direct sun or who expect to let children play on the turf in very high temperatures should look elsewhere; the product is made of plastic and can heat up in strong sunlight, which the manufacturer warns about.

Pros & Cons
