It was very easy to use, made 15 molds with no problems. If this is what you’re looking for buy it. I have no regrets.

We have built over 30 ft of a sidewalk and have a lot more to go to complete. This is durable, easy use, and clean.

Fantastic product! We used and abused it!
A couple of tips…
*use baking spray to oil them before pouring concrete.
*if you want to use your mold more then once for the day buy instant drying concrete.
*make sure you smooth over each top down to where you can see the black outline of the mold. If you don’t do this you will get weird tops on the molds.
*make the concrete as watery as possible. It makes for smooth tops.
*To make a turn we filled in the gap between 2 of the molds by using a piece of wood so the concrete did not leak out. Creating another block.

I love this stone walkway mold. It is so simple to use. Each side has either an “out” or “in” pattern. Simply match your next section so it interlocks.
Turn your pattern 1/4 turn each time to achieve a more random look.
Curves are simply made by aligning the mold to the last poured section, pressing the mold down, remove mold, and remove excess concrete.
To make sure these look like random stones, use a trowel to smooth out the sharp edges.
I have used both soil and gray-colored mortar to fill in the spaces between the ‘stones’.

I decided to use these forms then fill the cracks with sand. Instead of trying to make a cement slab outside the door to my corridor. They are a tad bigger than what I had anticipated but that’s a good thing. This was my first time using these forms. I only had one issue with the entire project. The issue I had was with the concrete. If you plan to use these and you’re not a contractor or similar, definitely consider buying an attachment for your drill so you don’t spend thirty minutes just mixing the concrete. Other than that, I didn’t have any issues. I highly recommend these forms for anyone looking to create a path, walkway, or whatever, these are your “go-to”! A++

I accidentally discovered these concrete molds when one of our neighbors sold one in the local classifieds. I was intrigued and just had to try one as we have been planning to do something about our patio pretty much since we bought our home about five years ago. I gave it to my husband to test and yesterday he finally got around to giving it a sample run.
We really like the result and how easy it was to use. Plus the potential to customize the pavers to suit your needs. So we are pretty excited and will create a garden pathway before winter approaches. And finally, resurface our plain and ugly cracked patio.

This was the best purchase to make for my grassless pool area. It was very easy to use and it came out beautiful. It does take time however I wish I had purchased 2 more. The process itself was quick but I only purchased 2 however, 4 would have made the project quicker. But all in all, I was very please and would highly recommend to anyone wanting to add a personal touch to their outdoor area.

This works well. We had some user error, not rotating correctly, but I am still happy with how the patio is coming out. The product itself is great! We need to fill in the gaps with some polymeric sand and then we will be done.

These are fun to use, we are making pavers for our patio extension. An 80-pound bag of Quikcrete makes 4 pavers. We read other reviews that said to use a mold release or non-stick cooking spray and remove the molds after about 15-20 minutes so we took that advice and it has worked perfectly.
