Tacoma
Tacoma is a moderate-performance artificial turf designed for general residential landscapes, offering exceptional softness, natural-looking appearance, and moderate durability for typical residential use.
With a 1.75-inch pile height and 90 oz face weight, this turf provides a balanced combination of surface structure and comfort. Its drainage rate of 30 in/hr provides lower drainage capacity compared to high-performance systems, positioning it within its category based on its structural and material characteristics.

Structural Performance
Tacoma provides basic durability with some limitations under heavier use. Polyethylene fibers offer good durability with moderate resistance to wear and deformation, while higher yarn denier improves fiber strength and resistance to wear under regular use, reinforced blade profiles improve structural rigidity and support fiber recovery under repeated use.
Moderate drainage allows partial flow but may retain moisture under load.

Safety
Tacoma may support accessible use, but no formal ADA compliance documentation is available. Long pile height reduces stability and may affect mobility.
Tacoma by Everlast is prone to heat buildup and may reach higher surface temperatures. Polyethylene fibers reduce heat retention compared to other materials. No infrared-reflective technology is specified, which may increase heat retention.

Comfort / Experience
Tacoma provides a soft and cushioned surface feel. Slightly longer pile height (1.75") increases softness, though added height begins to reduce surface stability. However, very high turf density (68.65) significantly limits fiber flexibility, resulting in a firm and less cushioned surface.
Tacoma by Everlast offers a natural-looking surface with moderate visual variation. Multiple thatch tones enhance depth and closely mimic the layered look of natural grass, while optimal pile height creates natural depth and proportion, closely resembling real grass. Uniform blade shape may limit texture variation, making the surface appear more artificial.

Maitenance Scores
Tacoma requires regular maintenance to manage debris and surface cleanliness. Longer pile height increases debris retention, requiring more frequent cleaning, while very high turf density significantly limits accessibility, making maintenance more difficult. This is partially offset by structured blade profiles that resist debris accumulation and support easier cleaning, while polyethylene fibers reduce debris adhesion and support easier cleaning.
Tacoma by Everlast provides moderate debris resistance with some accumulation over time. Structured blade profiles promote debris shedding and reduce buildup. Very dense turf significantly limits debris movement and retention.
Tacoma offers strong resistance to flattening with good fiber recovery over time. Structured blade profiles improve resistance to flattening and support strong fiber recovery.

Warranty
SGW offers tiered warranties - 15-year for landscape turf and 3–8 years for putting greens-covering material defects, UV degradation, and abnormal fiber breakdown under normal use, but like most turf warranties, it is limited to material protection only, excluding installation issues, misuse, environmental damage, matting from traffic, and heat damage from window reflection, with claims typically restricted to repair, replacement, or material credit rather than full project coverage.

Installation Efficiency
Tacoma provides moderate backing stability suitable for standard installation conditions. High-performance secondary backing materials enhance structural integrity and improve fiber lock, while high tuft bind strength securely anchors fibers, reducing pull-out and improving stability, advanced backing systems improve structural integrity and resistance to movement.
Tacoma by Everlast provides good seam alignment with low visibility under proper installation. Tight stitch gauge allows precise alignment and improves seam invisibility.
Tacoma provides moderate cutting ease with some resistance during installation. Higher face weight may increases resistance during cutting.
