I am a single mom of two children and wanted to treat my kids to artificial turf in the backyard.  We get a lot of rain here so real grass is always wet and muddy.  I started studying to learn about artificial turf.  I surfed so many artificial turf websites to educate myself on artificial turf.  I came across the Global Syn Turf website which I found very informative.  They have pictures of all their artificial turfs, over 40 different skus.  With the pictures it tells you what the turf is for or the best application for the turf.  They have a specification sheet for each turf that shows all the technical data you need to know.  Next to that is all the testing, for instance they have the following tests for each artificial turf:  Flammability Test, Lead Test, Certificate of Analysis, Turf Summary, Water Permeability Test, CAD Details, Total and Face Weight Test, Tuft Bind Test, Grab Test, Warranty, Manufacturing Material Safety Data Sheet, Installation Guide, Artificial Grass Care and Maintenance Guide.  This is one heck of a lot of information for a company to put out there for everyone to see.  Besides all this they have Apps right on their website like Check your Lawn Size, Estimate Installation Cost and Cost and Saving Calculator.   The Check Your Lawn Size app lets you look at a satellite view of your home and measure the grass area so you know the size of your lawn.  The Cost Calculators let you take the size of your lawn and understand the cost of installing artificial turf and how much money you save by installing artificial turf.  I ended up using this company for my artificial turf needs and recommend them to anyone.
