Emsco Group 2182 Medium – Lightweight Landscape Rock-Resin, Sandstone

Wow, this faux rock was absolutely worth it. I’ve used plenty of garden rocks over the years to hide different things in the yard, but I’ve been trying to cover our septic tank lids for a long time. They sit on a slight hill of hard‑packed clay where nothing grows, and it’s always been an eyesore. I recently bought a beautiful patriotic wishing well by NestNature on Amazon and wanted the area around it to finally look nice. I tried two other faux rocks to cover the septic lids, but neither fit and both went back. Then I came across this Emsco Group (2271) medium granite rock, and I’m so glad I did. I was worried it would be too big or look out of place, but I was completely wrong. These rocks look incredibly realistic, blend naturally into the landscape, and are extremely sturdy. They even come with built‑in stake points and stakes to secure them, which is a must on windy days. They’re so solid and convincing that my grandkids and even the animals immediately started climbing on them. No dents, no wobbling, just tough, durable construction. I’m planning to dress up the area even more by adding gravel around the clay hill so it becomes a feature instead of something we try to hide. This project is something my wife has wanted me to tackle for a while, and she’s thrilled with the early results. Photos don’t even do it justice. If you’re trying to cover septic lids or anything else in the yard and want something that actually looks natural, this is the one.

Got this to cover the lid on our sewage pit and ekectrical box which is in our frontyard. The fit was spot on as the lid that it covers is 20" in diameter and sits 8" above grade. Seems heavy enough not to blow away but I plan to secure it with tent stakes. Doesn't really look real up close but looks good from a distance. Once we add a bit more landscape, it will blend in better. Looks so much better than the ugly green lid. Time will tell how long it lasts but hoping for many years!

Looks great! Covers a small stump from a dead tree and looks nice in our landscape!

This landscape rock is surprisingly useful even though it does not look completely realistic up close. It is lightweight and easy to move, which makes it perfect for covering up sprinkler heads, pipes, or small utility boxes in the yard. The size is good for smaller landscaping projects, and the color blends in decently with natural surroundings from a distance. I like that it stays in place once positioned and holds up well against rain and sun without fading or cracking. It is also made from durable plastic that feels sturdy but is easy to handle. Even though the texture and finish look a little artificial when viewed up close, it still gets the job done and improves the overall look of the area. For the price and convenience, it is a practical option for quick landscaping fixes. It is especially nice for spots where a real rock would be too heavy or difficult to move. While not perfect visually, it is definitely effective and functional for what it is meant to do.

I use this to cover the irrigation back flow module and pipes that the builders stick in the front landscaping that’s an eyesore. It’s obviously fake. But much better curb appeal than the hideous pipes and valves that stick out of the ground. I’d put plants around it. But between the rock bed, digging into rock soil and nothing that actually can grow in the soil but weeds, it was a practical alternative. The color is adequate for the rock bed, and you can’t hurt it. Its well constructed material makes it very durable. A little pricey. But I like it.

These are terrific. I have real boulders in my yard, these fit right in my natural landscape theme. The caveat is they also protect certain elements of my drip system from being crushed by tree guys and the iike.

Blends well with landscape, shape works well with height. It's the color of warm sand. The pictures I have show slightly darker than actual color, but you get the idea. What is warm sand, well, that faux rock, lol!

You can see from the photo that the color shown is not the color received. It looks like a real rock but I wanted the lighter color. It's also way larger than it says. Read some of the other reviews to get accurate sizes. Someone took a photo from the sticker on their rock with all the sizes. Mine didn't have that sticker.

Looks like a real rock. Covers the well on our front lawn. Matches the other big rocks in our gardens. Light, easy to handle. Great idea for landscaping. Highly recommend this item.

Beautiful plastic rock, it looks realistic to some degree especially if you plant around it, light weight and good size to fill your garden

This very realistic looking faux rock is perfect for our pond. It looks very natural, and blends in well with the landscape. It has used to hide our aerator, and is very natural looking. Highly recommend

Perfect, covers the well head and looks pretty natural! Very satisfied

J'ai utilisé la roche artificielle pour cacher un tuyau (clapet extérieur) et c'est super beau. On dirait une vraie roche 👍
