Let me start by saying this fake grass mat has been a lifesaver for my Yorkie's potty training. The realistic appearance and soft texture immediately caught my pup's attention - she took to it like, well, grass to water! Unlike disposable pee pads that she used to shred, this durable mat withstands her playful nature while serving its purpose.

The 43.3" x 29.5" size provides ample space, though I learned the hard way that you absolutely need an absorbent pad underneath (trust me on this one). Weekly cleaning is a breeze - just hose it down and let it dry over a porch rail (takes about an hour in good weather).

Where this product really shines is versatility. During our California heatwaves, it creates a cool spot for lounging away from scorching pavement. The UV-resistant material holds up well outdoors, though some users report folding creases being hard to remove.

Two significant drawbacks: 1) It does retain some odor despite claims otherwise, and 2) Drying can be problematic if you don't have outdoor space (HOA residents beware). For the price though, it's saved me a fortune on disposable pads and reduced our potty-training stress dramatically.

Final verdict? If you've got outdoor drying space and need a reusable solution, this mat delivers where traditional pads fail. Just manage your expectations about odor control and invest in good underpadding.
