We has Astro in out place when we moved in and originally every fibre of my body wanted rid of it. 3 years later and it's still there and tbh i love it. Zero maintenance (sometimes i hoover it), zero watering and it's let us focus on better planting for insects and birds. It drains really well so i can stretch and exercise all year round outside which is a plus when you have limited indoor space.
Plastic is shitty but the worst thing i can do is throw it in the bin and then waste a tonne of energy and water trying to get a lawn to grow.
