Five Star Reviews: | 67% quality top soil September 14, 2017 Used this soil to fill small patches in my lawn and plant new shrubs. The soil worked as expected in the patches and allowed grass seeds to germinate in areas that were previously difficult. I also had an area where we couldn't get shrubs to thrive. I mixed this top soil with the Michigan Peat 5240 Garden Magic Compost and Manure and so far the new shrubs have already lasted longer than the ones they replaced. The soil was pricey, but the convenience of having it quickly delivered and the quality of the soil made the purchase well worth it for me. Should be great in the spring November 20, 2016 Put in on my garden this fall and rototilled it in. Should be great in the spring. Plants are happy July 9, 2016 If you love to garden, you know how much fun it is to plant in the spring. And this top soil certainly helped with preparing a new flowerbed. The soil is a nice dark color, and my new plants seem to love it. Great top soil. Also, one bag came with a surprise! April 17, 2016 Great top soil. One bag came with a surprise. A few years ago, I found a toad in one bag of topsoil. It stayed in our yard for a few years, haven't seen it lately. But its replacement came with one of these Michigan Peat bags. As I was topping off my keyhole garden, I dumped another bag of topsoil and something leapt out. It jumped to the edge of the garden and looked back at me--it was a Carolina anole (an American chameleon). Saw it a couple of other times over the next week, so maybe it has taken up residence. I can't guarantee that you'll get such a surprise, though. But back to the topsoil--plants are just having a field day. Getting some great growth! | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Four Star Reviews: | 12% NOT REALLY 40 Pounds. Good but OVERPRICED. June 26, 2017 NOT REALLY 40 Pounds. Good but OVERPRICED. I ordered (7) bags of this topsoil. It all arrived safely & is good quality. A lot of the "40 pounds" is moisture weight. In other words you are getting about 20 pounds of water. Obviously you are going to water your lawn or garden after spreading this topsoil. I'm sure a large portion of the price is to offset shipping costs. I am giving (4) stars for a quality product as anticipated but it should technically cost about 50% less. I found a similar topsoil locally for $7.00 a bag. It too was somewhat moist & in the exact same size bag but not advertised as 40 pounds. Good dirt October 16, 2015 Slightly over priced but it did come earlier then original delivery date. Good dirt all and all. Good for Yard Patching August 10, 2015 I bought this for patching holes in my yard. It has great organic matter and grows grass well. | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |

Two Star Reviews: | 3% Disappointed June 6, 2016 The order was received on time and in good shape but I was very disappointed by the quality. The soil was nice and dark, however there were tons of sticks and wood chips throughout the bag. I used this to patch some spaces where my sod needs to fill in. Now I am concerned with all the sticks and chips if it will impede the sod growth. I guess only time will tell, but I would not recommend buying this. It is kind of expensive as I get can 2-3 bags at local store for this price and its better quality. You would think for what you pay it would be better. Very disappointed. | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
One Star Reviews: | 9% The bag arrived full of mulch mixed with soil. ... September 18, 2017 The bag arrived full of mulch mixed with soil. I had to remove mulch from the ground. For that money, it should be clean from mulch. One Star March 19, 2016 thanks for the big black ants that must of been in the soil.......as eggs or something yucky One Star June 22, 2015 Full of twigs and wood bits. I spread it then raked to remove all the unwanted material. | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
