Default Fake lawn

Anyone got any ? Coz I am too lazy to look after something real.

Looking at the possibility of doing my small backyard. I know Bunnings
and Clark Rubber sell it by the roll.

Any advice ? Experiences ? Anything to watch out for ?
Also, wouldn't mind having a looksee at some installed if you're willing
to let me have a gander.

Cheers.

You can get stuff that looks really good. You sweep sand onto it after its laid to make it look more real. My grandma has it out in the yard at her retirement home and had to bend down to actually feel it was fake, because it looked so real.

I have it in the back yard Ian

Did it myself - does get hot in the sun but awesome if you have four dogs.

fair bit of work involved to install - not hard but hard work.

Mine is from http://www.lazylawns.com.au/artificial-lawn-perth.html
