I had rebar done in the slab and in the drive. The slab is doing pretty well with minimal cracking beyond the saw cuts. The drive, on the other hand has numerous issues. Different guy for each with obviously different results! I'd heard the same about bar vs mesh, thus my choice. But in hindsight, it's MUCH more the installer than the stuff! What ever you choose has to be kept at the right depth to work well. My research now has told me that screen is as good as long as its kept at the top 1/3 point. It will be very interesting to see how yours does.
