Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This is my second try with artificial grass. SunVilla got it right! Most important Factor - IS IT SOFT? Yes! It's soft and VERY comfortable to walk on, play on and gently fall on, and we have it on top of concrete. Second most important Factor - Do I have to use INFILL? If so, how much? Does it have to be envirofill? Silica sand? Any chance I can just use play sand at $5/50 lb bag from Home Depot? I emailed the seller during the shipping process and asked if it was okay to use just play sand (because it's FIFTEEN times less expensive than envirofill) and he said people have had success with play sand but that INFILL WASN'T NECESSARY. Wow. The artificial grass that's being replaced (see pics) NEEDED infill to stand straight up like real grass would. When I read that infill wasn't necessary, I was like, yeah, we'll see about that. No, you DON'T need to use infill!! That's awesome. Now, having said that even with the SunVilla grass standing up straight (for the very most part) infill does add weight to keep it from sliding, a little bit of bounce (rubber and envirofill type infill) and more cushion. So I see how infill could still be a benefit but NOT necessary (see pics). Third most important Factor - Durability. Will the color fade over time? Will it hold up against little feet running all over it for years? Don't know yet but I will report back if that does happen. Fourth most important Factor - Does it look real? Yep. If you put your face right on the ground, then, no it doesn't. If you're standing up or even sitting on it. Yeah, it really does. So far I'm Super happy with it and definitely recommend it! Hope this was helpful!
