After using the LOKANG artificial grass tiles for my balcony and pet area, I’m torn between their convenience and their obvious artificial look. The 12x12-inch tiles are easy to snap together, and the self-draining feature is a lifesaver for rainy days and pet accidents. Hosing them down takes seconds, and they dry quickly—no soggy mess!

However, let’s be real: these tiles won’t fool anyone into thinking they’re real grass. The plastic base is hard underfoot, and the "lush" 1.57-inch pile feels more like a cheap rug than a lawn. My dog doesn’t mind, though—he loves rolling on them, and the drainage holes make cleanup a breeze. For small projects like balconies or pet zones, they’re practical, but don’t expect a luxurious feel.

Durability is a plus. After months in the sun, mine haven’t faded, and the interlocking edges hold up well—unless your surface is uneven, which causes gaps. Pro tip: fluff the edges to hide seams, but results are hit or miss. Overall, they’re a budget-friendly fix for adding green to tricky spaces, just don’t expect miracles.
