8285-1 Natural Granite Look – Large – Lightweight – Easy to Install-20.5x25x18 Landscape Rock

This is an awesome faux rock!!! It looks real!!! Looks great in my yard. Coved my 14" irrigation faucet perfectly!! Worth the money! Came with two smal stakes, easy to hide. No regrets on this purchase!!

Looks much better than the tote I had been using. While not perfect looks pretty good, great improvement.

Covered my irrigation system valves nicely. No longer an eye sore. Good product. Looks like a rock.

I purchased the Emsco Group 8285-1 Natural Granite Look – Large "Rock" to hide some external electrical boxes. The product is quite realistic, looking like granite even from just a few feet way. It will work perfectly. The "rock" is a semi-rigid plastic shell, less than 1/8 inch thick. The coloring is not a coating but is throughout the material. The "rock" is not brittle, and has a small amount of "give." Nevertheless, despite its thinness, it is rigid enough that its shape does not deform. The dimensions provided in the product description were accurate. My "rock" came with two metal anchors, but without any way to connect the anchors to the "rock." I will just drill two small holes to complete the anchoring. I plan to weight the rock with 10-lbs of ballast in order to keep it from blowing away. The "rock" should be great at protecting the interior from rain, snow, etc. My only negative is that the manufacturer slapped a large sticker to the outside of the "rock". The sticker was unnecessarily difficult to remove. It took me about an hour to completely remove the sticker (use only warm to hot water, and not an adhesive remover, since an adhesive remover damaged the matte finish of the rock). The sticker was really unnecessary. The same information could have been affixed to the "rock" using non-adhesive paper and a small piece of adhesive tape.

Very nice rock cover. I'm thinking of getting the boulder size.

Fit well enough over a septic tank lid is perfect for the landscaping in my yard!!we couldn't figure out the screws to hold it down but that could just be bevlcause it was a perfect fit over the lid, but I bought the wrong size. It does fit and hasnt blown away though or been ruined. It seems pretty sturdy without the anchors.

This covers my septic pipe. It’s not an eye soar in the yard. Very natural looking. I plan on getting a couple larger ones.

I have three very noticeable and ugly utility boxes right in my front yard, not great curb appeal. I'm using this particular rock to cover my sprinkler system irrigation box. The box only sticks up a couple inches from the ground, but I had to order the Large rock to account for the 12"x17" width/length. I cut several inches off the bottom of the rock so it wouldn't be unnecessarily tall. I drilled two new holes for the stakes and installed the rock, easy peasy. I found using a wire cutter tool was the easiest way for me to cut it. A reciprocating saw might work well, but I don't have one of those. The rock looks exactly like the product picture and the size graphs are accurate. It also arrived quickly. It's light enough that I can easily lift if it, but sturdy enough that with the two stakes I feel comfortable that it will stay in place through any normal winds. I'm very happy to have that ugly green irrigation box covered up! I also bought the Monolith for my cable box and ordered a Small rock for my electric box.

This fake rock is very real looking and is going to be perfect to cover our wellhead, that is in our yard. It is going to work perfectly, mixed with some real stones in a small flowerbed. Highly recommend, if you are looking to disguise something in your gardens or yard.

We’ve had this over our well head for 2 years without any issues or complaints. Haven’t had to readjust once and all of our neighbors thought it was a real rock. Would recommend!

works great and looks good

Bought this product to cover my drilled well. The shipping was fast and came with pegs to secure it to the ground. The design provides a natural look to the yard and doesn't stick out like a sore thumb. This particular one covered a 13" diameter hole with ease. The ground around it may need some levelling to ensure a secure connection for the pegs. I like it!

Works well to cover water well head.
