Yard Tuff 455TBDM ATV/UTV 5 Feet by 4.5 Feet Zinc and Steel Field Surface Leveling Drag Mat with Tow Chain and Tow Ring for Lawn, Silver

This drag mat does a superb job of leaving the surface smooth. We use a mix of angulated (chip) sand and rich organic dirt in our arena, and rough harrowing leaves grooves. This mat flattens in out nicely. Easy to store, too, as you can just roll it up, which takes a lot less space than leaving it flat on the ground. As for dimensions, the short dimension (4.5') is in the width, and of course the long dimension (5') is in the length. So, your harrow width behind the tractor is 4.5'. It will hid the tire marks for a standard garden tractor or sub-compact tractor. The mat also has the tendency to accumulate small pebbles and rocks as you pull, then when you make a turn it deposits them in a group. This is not a bad thing! It makes it easy to get a rake and collect them! It's a good product for the money!

I use this weekly to drag about 300 feet of fine gravel driveway, behind a subcompact tractor. It works very well for that. It is light enough to do some of the relatively inaccessible areas by hand. And. I use it for my sand riding arena every month or so, just to get into corners and along the edges where my big arena drag won't go. UPDATE AFTER 3 YEARS: Still using it as described, and it has held up very well. I have acquired a UTV, but the wheels are further apart than on my tractor, so it leaves wheel marks when dragging my arena, so I continue to use my tractor. This drag mat has turned out to be a very useful purchase. I have another drag, a 4x8 chain harrow, but it is much heavier, and this one does a much better job smoothing and filling horseshoe divots in my gravel drive and sand arena. The heavier harrow does a better job breaking up manure piles in the pasture, this drag mat just floats over them and collects plugs of wet manure along the way.

I mow acres of pastures. I could not justify the prices of the more expensive drag mats. This drag mat works and would work well in many applications. But for pastures, where I NEED to break up manure piles and gopher mounds, it does not work well. It rides over the top of the piles of 80%. I will be welding small pieces of rebar to the front of the drag mat and I think that will work better for me. The price is great. And the heavy duty squares and great too.

Does its job and very well made. Works great .

I have never been happier to write a review. This thing is fantastic. I just rented an excavator for the week and did a lot of tearing up my property leaving ruts and torn up ground from the excavator treads. I bought this figuring I would use it for a final smoothing after we raked and shoveled by hand. But I decided to give it a try and the results were amazing. It smoothed out all the ruts like magic. Very well made. It weighs nearly 50 lbs. no assembly. Just unroll it and put the ring over the ball on my 4 wheeler. In this day and age, you expect things to be cheaply made. Not this product. Very pleased!

I’ve had this product for about a week & use it to drag my horse pastures & arena. I’ve been very pleased with the job it’s done so far. It smooths all the uneven terrain from horse traffic in the arena& distributes the manure piles in the pasture. I like that the drag rolls up when not in use & stores easily. The shipping was super fast. I was going to order this thru Tractor Supply b/c it was $40 less (same exact drag), but it showed being out of stock.

When this arrived I was suprised how well it was made. Because of the metal squares attached together it works better than any other drag I have used. MUCH better than the old chain link fence deal. I think you will be very happy with this.

Using this drag mat to level the surface of my riding arena. It appears to be well made and does a good job. It does need an ATV to pull it when sand is wet and heavy not a lawn tractor.

We have a large gravel parking area and the gravel gets ruts it in from driving around on it with various pieces of equipment. We attach this to the quad and it smooths and spreads the gravel around, and evens the area nicely.

I love it. It's extremely heavy duty and works like a charm behind my ride on lawn mower. I use it mostly to smooth out the dirt before planting grass and also to smooth out too dressing after grass is grown. It doesn't get a tonne of use but it's a really well made tool.

Keeps our sand arena perfect. The right tool for the job makes life so.much easier.

It is plain and simple and as advertised.
