I absolutely love this.. I was able to make my yard look so amazing. This is such a conversation started and is so beautiful. I love sitting out in my yard and enjoying the view. You will love the end result and the look. GET THIS... it's the best thing you can do for yourself.

I have 3 moulds and have been doing this area gradually, I spray the mould with cooking oil before starting for easier cleaning. I use a cement mixer which makes it much quicker. They are easy to use and clean very happy

We have 2 houses and did a split comparison of old pavers vs PathMaker Molding, and needless to say the latter is so much better. Just the amount you save ( we saved about $3000USD by doing this ourselves!) instead of hiring paver installation. It's pretty simple to do as well, just don't do it on your own and have a friend/partner to help you at the side to divide tasks and you can work on one mold while the other fills up another mold. We are not going to fill in the cracks with sand, we prefer this look simple and clean. I would highly recommend this Mold.

Got this about 8 years ago from PathMaker for our garden in Alberta. It has held up well in the harsh Canadian Cold over the years, I didn't fill the spaces between the cracks with anything so it has this natural moss growing out ever summer when the weather gets a bit warm. For those worried about frost-damage, it doesn't affect it because unlike traditional pavers, concrete has immense durability when molded in little pieces like this and prevents heaving because each piece moves with the ground and conforms to it. The makers of PathMakers are geniuses for thinking of this simple yet effective solution.
Shelley M.
Just used them and love it, it's so easy to do. I got 4 of the Premium Molds, we just finished our front patio and now we are going to do our garden, at this rate we are going we will be finished in 2 days, It is super Cost effective without hiring expensive help and pavers. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to revamp and transform their yard.
Mike j.
Easy to use and i finished my patio in a day
Jim S.
This took us one Sunday afternoon to finish, about 6 hours and $125 later, overall I’m very pleased with it. We used 4 PathMakers, buy more if you want to get the job done quicker. As you can see it does make the backyard look a lot better instead of all lawn.
James S.
We have had this for 7 years and it still looks good, I hose it down once in a while when the weather gets dry, concrete really stands the test of time.
I would like to give a shout out to PathMaker for selling a fantasic yet very simple item, I would highly recommend anyone having qualms about this to give it a shot, it’s cheap, easy to do and doesn’t take a lot of time
Sandra K.
Very easy to use and very good results. TIPS> Just make sure to giggle the mold well before lifting off to make sure the cement fills the mold and gives it smoother sides . Also when moving the mold press it very close the stones you just laid. Use normal quick setting cement. Pretty straightforward!
Sally Y.
Take a look at how gorgeous our driveway looks, All we did was follow the instructions that came with it. It is unbelievably easy to do, it might seem daunting but you just to have to have faith that it will turn out well. Im a mother of 2 and have no masonry skills whatsoever.
Audrey G.
The product is great, I had purchased one online a few months ago from an unknown seller which was cheaper turned out to be garbage and broke easily, After some research online I found out the best reviews and quality was the one PathMaker provided, they use a different type of hard polypropylene material that is durable, Here is my final completed project, I used polymeric sand to fill in the spaces between ( i like my tiles separated), It is extremely easy to do and for a 75 year old woman I am extremely pleased with what I have done :) Im writing this review because its a great product!
Richard D.
My neighbors did their walkway using this. First, they did a practice square which didn't look all that good, but then they were ready to do their walkway and the walkway looked terrific! So now I am confident mine will turn out just as good. They did their 2ft x 20ft walkway in one day. The practice square was about 8 inches thick and that was too thick. I think that they went with 4 to 5 inches thick with a well prepared area.
Richard G.
It arrived after 5 days, this is a great project I’m looking forward to doing with my students in gardening
Karlos H.
I bought these in Feb of this year to make a walkway from my back porch to back fence gate. I finally was able to get to it this past weekend, after finishing my new fence. I really wanted a concrete walkway, as I can never get grass to grow by my gate to the ally. It also made for a nice mud hole after a good rain or snow. I definitely didn't want cheap pavers, so I thought a walkway using these would be perfect.I will definitely use these again. I'm sure I'll come up with another use for this year, tips> make sure your ground is level using the forms. If all 4 sides of the form are not touching the ground, fix it. Concrete will spill out if you are not careful. I had that happen a couple of times.
Overall i would rate this product 9.5/10 and it exceeded my expectations. After comparing the cost different between actual pavers and this mold, there was no contest. I installed a long walkway for under $75!! Thank you pathmaker
Bill M.
I searched for hours looking for a perfect item to replace some current pavers when I came across the Path Maker. I purchased 2 of the 60x50cm and got right to work when I got them. After 6 hours I was all done with the area (16 sets) and can’t express how easy and improved this look is. When setting the stone I rotated each frame once so no identical stones set next to each other. I chose not to add color to the concrete mix for now and will go back over it with concrete dye once it’s cured. I purchased 2 frames to help the progress and Incase one broke but luckily it didn’t. U can see the stones are already starting to cure so u see the nice color everywhere. I highly recommend and will be using these again in the near future.
Marlay K H.
Loved
Using this last summer , getting another one again :)
Callaway N.
So I got all 4 variations I love the signature one and the European but I have to say the premium 60x50cm cuts out sections a lot cleaner and smoother.
There’s a reason why is pricier it’s definitely better
Dimitri V.
This is good item for my gardens, I live in Russia and here we don’t have much device like this ones. Saves lot of money and this is important for me
Pete J.
I should have got the 43x43 the 36 is a lot smaller than what I wanted
Maki T.
Great item two thumbs up
Lee H.
Hi PathMaker,
I’d like to leave a review here for the 60x50cm mold
I purchased last Thursday, I love it.
The material is different from the others and it feels a lot more heavy duty for those big pathways. We have started a project and are midway done .thank you for a simple yet brilliant item
Tanner Y.
I couldn’t be more happy with how it came out, I love it :)
Conor B.
Great pathmaking mold, people can think of anything
Copeland B.
Nothing special really what it doesn’t give us is an estimation of how much concrete we need to do individually unique gardens
Ben J.
I would like to thank Johnathan for introducing this to me from the PathMaker team in the workshop.
Thanks love it :)
Russel L.
I live in Vancouver and this thing has held up well in the winter with no cracks, concrete really is the best !
Angela K.
Almost done with the backyard :)
Jesse M.
Took a while to figure out the most efficient and effective way but it’s legit. Makes the driveway look a lot better
Lucio H.
My cousin got his professionally done and mine looks better it’s a hundred times cheaper. This is ingenuios!!!
Debra J.
❤️ ❤️ it’s here . So excited to use it thank you !!
Tracey H.
Super affordable, there is only one PathMaker I’d advise others against buying fakes. I had to buy mine again from PathMaker after my dad got a shitty one from another company that shall not be named
Sikarth J.
I would like to recommend this item to gardeners and home owners for patio, it’s very good yes
Robin J.
Thanks PathMaker I managed to get these last year for my fathers front driveway. I’m getting a couple for our new house I’m super excited
Gabriel R.
Cool product love the mold
Kinley M.
I wonder if this review will show up on their product page, I just got mine last Tuesday and already started working on our garden I will post a pic when it’s all done :)
Jon G.
Great product by pathmaker
Oni J.
I highly recommend anything sold by PathMaker, been using them for years and they are the best
Pauline M.
It’s a ridiculously cheap device to create expensive looking driveways. 1. Cost effective 2. Durable and 3. Easy to use 5/5 stars ! Bravo PathMaker
Gretchen W.
My garden looks awesome I just had to write a review, I don’t know how to post a pic of it
Bassy L.
I’ve no experience in construction, this PathMaker makes the job super easy to do, there’s a lot of creativity required but once you set your mind to it, it eventually forms something beautiful
Ash S.
Absolutely brilliant mold
Bobby K.
Such a good weekend activity to do with your family, I’ve almost finished our front patio and I’m happy with the results. I recommend getting 2 to get the job done quicker, I’m ordering another one
Cali B.
I’ve been ordering from pathmaker for years now, I just got the 60x50cm and it’s heavy and durable compared to the others, I think this model just came out this year, can’t wait to test it
Tim F.
I got one of each, my favorite design is the 60x50cm one with curved ends I like it because it’s super heavy duty
Carlie H.
Got this yesterday and already finished half of the garage floor with it, the thing with this is you get better as you go on, instead of taking other peoples advice figure it out on your own, it’s satisfying to create something of out ones imagination and this mold
Sunny G.
Incrediblely simple to use, rock at the end of the day are just being reshaped to produce asthethic paths. I highly recommend this PathMaker mold, where has this been my whole life
Michael B.
Great product, an affordable alternative to an otherwise expensive patio rework. Love it
Pikard L.
Did my grandmas apple orchard entrance with this, took us about 2 weekends but the results are great, pretty proud of what we accomplished. All in all a great tool by PathMaker
Pina M.
This mold is easy to use and makes a very attractive patio. It is quality made and is very sturdy. I have used it to make a patio approximately 22' x 30' and it looks great.
If I were to make any suggestions to prospective buyers, it would be buy 2 molds as it will make your work go much faster to have 2 molds working at the same time.
Erica B.
I find DIY projects like this annoying, id rather pay someone to have it done for me

Betty L.
I have never done concrete before, and if you haven't the first thing that you should know is that working with concrete does to your body something like what a professional boxer does to a punching bag. It is a lot of lifting, kneeling, being on your knees, and generally feeling like you've been thoroughly pummeled. I love it
Dillian B.
Larger and thick patio paver mold!!
This walk way concrete mold is made very well! It's heavy and thick. It's also quite large.
I am very excited to get this mold and to start playing our project!
Penni U.
Got the 36 mini one its great but i kind of wish I got the 43cm one now
Jill B.
Got the European one, i love it
Sarah V.
Great Mold by pathmaker
Bobby H.
Our patio turned out really nice but don't be fooled, this is labor intensive. We did about 14'x14' and it took us ALL WEEKEND but we did it. If you don't fill the cracks in with sand the pattern looks really obvious but we added polymeric sand and we've gotten a lot of compliments. The issue that added a lot of time was when we pulled the mold up, the concrete would stick to the corners and create really sharp little edges when it dried. I used an angle grinder to smooth them all out afterwards but if you can find a way to make them smooth when they dry, you saved yourself hours. Maybe our mix was too wet? Another tip - make sure the surface was really flat before laying them. For the cobblestone look, this wouldn't have been an issue but our surface was a little wavy and it shows in the patio but overall, it was very manageable and looks great. It's held up all season. We had 2 people laying the patio (we only needed 1 of the molds because you don't need to hold it in place very long but having a body to relieve you is key since you'll be kneeling or crouching for a while) and one person mixing. We did rent a mixer and I think that was a brilliant move on our part. I recommend the European Grid but i now i kind wish I got the Premium 60x50cm one as well
Lee J.
I got the European Grid one, Heres a picture of my first try, I'm impressed ive no experience in DIY House Renovation at all
Jamie B.
After watching several Youtube videos on other peoples projects and putting in 20' I've come to the following conclusions:
1. Buy/rent a cement mixer if you plan on putting in more that 5 bags worth of cement. Your time is worth it.
2. randomly joining "stones" down the middle and when two sets abut one another creates an even better "random" look.
3. Buying two will make your job go faster
4. Buy the bigger ones
I highly recommend this mold by Pathmaker :)
Heres a pic of my project!
PAULIE B.
Here are some tips please listen carefully
Do's
-Buy 2 paver molds (whether you want to get it done faster/share with a friend or let one dry out)
-Think about investing in a concrete mixer
-Wear sunscreen
-Add a little extra water to the concrete, better molds
-Lift with your knees, not your back.
Do Not's
-Wear flip-flops
-Ask your lazy room mate to help
-Blast your gangster rap in close proximity to your neighbors, sorry Bob
I'm a noob when it comes to handyman stuff, so if I can do it, you can do it. Total cost for this patio was 150 dollars
Nigel B.
I've been buying molds for my house from pathmaker for a while now and recently I wanted to try the 60x50cm premium one, there a reason why its called premium its actually super heavy duty and the shape of the molds it gives out are crisp clean, the polypropylene material used on this one feels so much nicer than other molds. Im super excited I cant wait to show others what Im building in the front yard with this, its about 80 percent done now.
Peter V.
I did a lot of research, I ended up with the following:
-sand/gravel base required = No, but level, pitch and compact.
-concrete per mold = 1-80lb bag will do 1.2 molds
-4.5 quarts of water per 80lb bag
-my preferred pathmaker mold- EUROPEAN block
-gaps in between - I will use the sand topping to get the gray color - assessed 10bags for 336sq ft
-spray off mold with water and spray with wd-40 after every 4 molds
EXTREMELY COST EFFECTIVE AND WORTH THE SAVINGS! It was a good project to do with my kids as well.
Phil g.
It turned out great, was easy to use. We list the directions so we missed the step of smoothing it with a wet sponge, but it still looks great. If had to do different, we would have rented a cement mixer. Used 18, 80lb bags of concrete and mixed by hand. I recommend the bigger frames, the 36x36cm is small so we had to reorder a bigger size
Colby A.
I did this.I found after a few it's was a cake walk.Love it and so does my wife.I order two of the European ones and I'm glad I did.Now I wonder how it will hold up in Upstate NY's winter!
Sasha L.
This mold is heavy duty. I was worried it would be flimsy, but it is not at all. Compared to one I saw in a big-box store, this one is of far superior quality and the mold itself is much larger. The instructions with suggestions were very helpful. I can't wait to begin creating a path to my pool from my patio! I will update my review as soon as the project is complete. I have posted photos of the product I got.
Kim B.
I got the 60x50cm its more my style, i like the curved ends and it gives it a more elegant look.
Tun J.
Great item, i was skeptical at first but im so happy it shipped with free shipping all the way to my place
Candace M.
Yayyy this is the first batch I made, defintely room for improvement
Virgil C.
This is a project where you'll get better as you go. If you are doing multiple pours, do your first mold someplace where imperfections will be less obvious. I'd practice once behind the shed before I poured next to the front door. I think next week my path will look a lot better.
Kit H.
Its a lot of annoying work to mix cement and fill it up
Tamia G.
Its Brilliant, thank you!
Dana S.
Cool, nothing special
Pilat N.
Just got mine in 6 days, our driveway is gonna look dope as hell!!! thank you pathmaker
Alan S.
Week 1 of the Path Maker :))) will post more once im done with this project
Tanang A.
Its a cool mold i should have got the signature one though
James C.
Tried several different molds and this is my favorite, stone quality has not been good, but I think that is due to learning how to get pour right.
Yani L.
just got the walk maker and started builing my walk way. I couldnt be more happy with the turn out.
Khal D.
Did this all myself, just got a mortar box and some extra long rubber gloves and a hose for water and a shovel.. hand mixed it one bag at a time then filled and moved onto the next one.. turned out great! Few things I would change now..but I love my garden area <3
Brienne D.
I found this idea online and ran with it....used 2 of these Path Maker moldings and stone colored spray paint in various colors and a hammered black spray paint! It worked perfectly! I recommend scrubbing off the molding after a while to avoid unwanted paint lines...but if you have a concrete floor that needs some vanity work....this is an amazing cheap way to go!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!
Garri B.
Worth the price paid. It allows you to create a concrete pavement at ridiculously low prices. It takes a little more time to make the flooring than simply laying concrete tiles, but the result will give satisfaction. I did the work at different times and depending on the proportions in the preparation of the cement and the degree of humidity of the air, it was possible to detach the form in more or less rapid times. Perhaps buying two forms would have halved the necessary time. Thats what i would recommend buy 2 and invest in it, its definitely worth every penny!
Lee Z.
Have 4 of these and have done many projects. On big projects, I use it to stamp the concrete rather than fill the mold.
Sandy L.
You can mix several forms in the same day but you have to let the cement cure, Love it
Benny H.
Works just like pictured, and FAST! Just pour the concrete right over the grass, where you put the mold down in place.
We did a "stone" walkway through our yard with this and 3 months later, it looks like it's been there for years, Grass grows right up between the segments of the blocks, looks completely natural.
Bastian G.
I highly recommend this mold by PathMaker, been using them for years and when it comes to quality, they are the best. I'd like to thank Christine from support for the help with my order, heres my review and let me say 10/10
Kenny H.
Beautiful patio here we come!!!
Banu U.
5/5 Good investment for a DIY kit for the backyard
Calli B.
Affordable and easy to use, i recommend it
Gerry L.
<3 Got Mine Today<33333
Dawn H.
This is perfect, 1 love you PathMaker
Conor B.
I carefully looked at all the available options when selecting a faux stone walkway mold, and am very happy with my selection. The Path Maker Signature Moldi s very easy to use, and I have never even worked with cement or anything similar before. I particularly enjoy the somewhat natural/haphazard effect I can repeatedly create, as well as the option of adding cement colorants to create unique/"natural" stone color effects. Great choice for the money, easy to use, and looks great. I'm a happy customer. Thanks!!!
John P.
Great path mold by pathmaker, keeps me and the kids busy in the weekends
