After testing the Sweethome Meadowland artificial grass rug for several weeks, I can confidently say it's a mixed bag with some standout features.
The Good: This rug is incredibly versatile. I used it both indoors as a pet mat and outdoors on my balcony. The rubber backing keeps it firmly in place, even when my golden retriever goes zooming across it. The drainage holes work as advertised - after heavy rain, it dried within an hour.
Texture & Comfort: While some reviewers called it thin, I found the softness perfect for my needs. My dog happily naps on it, and the texture seems to satisfy his grass-chewing urges without the mess of real turf. The bright green color does look surprisingly natural from a distance.
Pet Performance: As a potty training solution, this exceeded expectations. With some spray training, my puppy took to it immediately. Cleaning is simple - just hose it down with some mild soap. No lingering odors after multiple uses.
The Not-So-Good: The thickness could be better - you can feel hard surfaces beneath when walking barefoot. One of my two rugs arrived slightly undersized (Amazon replaced it promptly). Dog hair does get trapped in the fibers, requiring occasional deep cleaning.
Final Verdict: For $30-40, this delivers solid value as a functional pet mat or decorative accent. It won't fool anyone into thinking it's real grass up close, but for creating pet zones or adding greenery to patios without maintenance, it's a practical solution that holds up well to daily use.
