When I first received these, I was very happy as they looked great out of the box. Unfortunately, only a little over 1 year of use, they are completely falling apart! We bought 4 of them and all 4 are unravelling on their own. The biggest problem is, we haven't even really used these as they are primarily just for decoration to fill that area of the pool perimeter. Very disappointed. I would NOT recommend any of these or any of the related products that are made of this material.
