Professional Opinion
Natural Pet Turf is average when it comes to cushion and slightly below average for softness. The durable blade recovers well. Turf temperature under the direct sun comes in a few degrees lower than average due to its lighter face weight and lower pile. The material is resistant to wear and tear and showed little signs of heavy use during testing.
See the results and test specifications below.
Test Results
Softness
Meter showed 98 degrees of angle adjustment.
Average softness.
Cushion
The tennis ball jumped 22 inches. For reference, the ball jumps 36 inches when bounced on the office carpet.
Recovery
Blades recovered 93%
Temperature test
The temperature recorded is an impressive 127.3 degrees, a remarkable 3.1 degrees cooler than a piece of plastic subjected to identical conditions.
Wear and Tear
The blades underwent a transformation, bouncing back to 90% of their original shape. Signs of wear are barely starting to show over long periods of time, but there is no damage to the blades or their backing. This is a durable option.
Test Specifications
Every test we conduct is measured and compared to a test item for easier understanding.
- How do you measure turf softness?
-
We brush the turf 5 times with an angle measurement tool that is resistant to friction. The softer the turf, the less movement we will see on the ruler.
The fewer degrees on the ruler, the softer the turf.
- How do you measure cushion?
-
We drop a tennis ball #3 from 6 ft. above directly on the surface of the turf to measure the cushion. The less it bounces, the more cushion the artificial grass provides.
We compare results to the bounce carpet provides for clarity.
- How do you determine turf recovery?
-
We place a 30lb weight on the artificial grass material for 5 minutes, then wait 15 minutes at room temperature and measure blade length compared to the original.
- How do you measure temperature?
-
We measure the temperature under the direct sun after 30 minutes of exposure without wind.
As a data backup, we compare this to the temperature of a stainless steel plate under the same conditions.
- How do you assess wear and tear?
-
We apply an abrasive brush to the turf for a period of 30 seconds and observe the blade's structure afterward. We look for damage, twist, recovery, and blade structure deformation.
