Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Undisclosed water-repellent coatings (likely PFAS or fluorocarbon-based), Thermal degradation and polymer breakdown, Microplastic shedding during use and installation and Mold and bacterial growth if drainage fails on the Style Selections and not on the AstroTurf.
  • We flag VOC off-gassing from polyurethane or latex adhesive, Polypropylene UV degradation and microplastic shedding, Backing adhesive failure and fiber separation and Infill contamination (if rubber granules used) on the AstroTurf and not on the Style Selections.
  • The Style Selections is Polypropylene/polyethylene synthetic fibers with unknown coating/treatment where the AstroTurf is Polypropylene (PP) astroturf, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • The gap is 45 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the AstroTurf is the one to buy.
  • We are less certain about the Style Selections grade, at 35% confidence against 72%, because it discloses less.

Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
