We’ve all heard the famous quote, “You get what you pay for.” There’s a good reason these words have been around for so long – they’re true!
This is more evident in the artificial grass industry, where cheap products abound. It’s these inferior grasses that give artificial grass a lousy reputation. When it comes to grass, you should always opt for quality.
Many countries, still produce low-quality grasses and sell them to abroad companies at a low price. Consumers think they’re getting a great deal when, in reality, they’re getting a bad one. These imported grasses may be cheaper, but the quality is terrible. You should reconsider if you’re trying to save a lot of money on an artificial lawn.
Low-quality grass blades are made from inferior yarns that make the grass look shiny and extremely plastic. In short, they look fake. This cheap yarn also makes the grass smell terrible, especially when it gets hot. What’s worse, it can make your yard smell like burning rubber.
When you choose high-quality synthetic turf, it has a matte, natural look. It looks like real grass. In fact, people are hard-pressed to believe it’s artificial until they step onto the lawn. And high-quality grass doesn’t have bad smells.
If the artificial grass comes from a country without EPA lead restrictions, in addition to the look and smell, lower-quality grass can contain lead. These cheap products also generally have water flow issues, making managing pet smells a chore.
When it comes to artificial grass, remember that “you get what you pay for.” Make sure to choose wisely and opt for high quality.
