Bought the 8-pack in the 16in size to line the hallway of my Halloween decor shop. They came a little curled at the corners from being rolled for shipping, so I weighed the corners down with some books overnight and they laid completely flat after that. Once flat, the orange against the dark stone print looks even richer than it did in the photos.
Ordered the 8-pack in 20in to line our finished basement for the small haunted walk-through I run every October. One rug had a fold crease from being shipped folded, but it relaxed flat on its own after about a day on the floor under some string lights. All eight lined up together look incredible, so I'm not knocking off more than a star for something that fixed itself.
Ordered the 2-pack, one for our front door and one for my sister since she loved the picture I sent her. The only issue was the very edge on mine curled up slightly during the first humid week, but after a few days of foot traffic and a night flat under a bookshelf leg it settled down and hasn't moved since. My teenagers, who act too cool for Halloween decorations, admitted the arms-open skeleton on the striped board genuinely looks 3D.
We got a rough night of wind and rain right after I set these up and I pulled them in like the listing suggests. Ten minutes to replant the next morning and no damage at all.
First spot I picked was under the maple and it was faint by ten at night. Moved it out to the open part of the lawn and it went all evening. Not a fault with the stake, just something nobody tells you - put it where the sun actually lands.
In the mulch bed they went in with one push and stayed put. A planter is tighter: the stake is 5.1 in and most of it has to sit below the surface, so my shallow pot left the arm leaning.
Tucked into the mulch near the porch, the glow and the cascade both look great. Tried one out in the middle of the open lawn first and it read as a lot smaller from the street, so a bed or a border is the better spot for it.
Went in easy on the lawn. The bed on the other side is packed clay and I had to water it first before the stake would go deep enough to stand straight. Once it was in it stayed in, wind and all.
