There is no silver bullet and this might work if you have a certain soil type and grass type. So Check your soil type. If it crumbles and is loose this wont work. If you have soil that has a bit of clay this might work and will hold shape. As someone pointed out there are grass types or weeds that tend to propagate through long horizontal runners . Therefore this wont work with certain grass types .So check the type of grass beforehand.

True regarding soil type. Disagree on horizontal runners from grass. The whole point is to create an environment that stops the runners. Basically air pruning with that extremely defined, deep edge. If someone were to fill in that edge with mulch, the grass could indeed come through into the bed.
