Looks ok but lots of powder/dust!!
Looked ok to start with but loads of powder once you got into the bag which was disappointing. Took ages to clean off. Coverage ok but due to the amount of powder it then affected the drainage as it clogged the weed matting we had put down prior!

Sad times, slate crimes
The slate is proper battered, which is what I took into consideration when I was shovelling it onto the garden. I kept thinking it will plum up when wet. Perhaps deep down in its soul it's plum. There is a lot of non-plum in the slate party. Didn't match either the website image or my vision. Covers a space though so that's something I guess.
Merchant Response
Dear Lindsay, many thanks for leaving a review of the Plum Slate you recently purchased. We are very sorry to hear that the plum made you glum and wasn't what you expected. Due to the nature of natural products there can be differences in appearance, unfortunately. Your comments will be fed back to the supplier. We apologies for any inconvenience this has caused you and hope you can still enjoy the party. Kind regards, Travis Perkins Team

Good looking slate once clean
We used this to top off our front garden as we wanted it to be good to look and be able to drive on it. Topped dressed the sub base we had had already payed previously. When this came in it is very dirty but once it rained the slate started to loo much better and now after some time it looks perfect
