We decided on our turf by going to our local Home Show (Southern AZ Home Builders Association, SAHBA Home Show). There we saw many different landscapers and turf installers. It seemed like almost each guy used his own preferred brand of turf and, when we hired our landscape architect to do the layout, we gave him our choice for the turf sub to use. I honestly don't remember the particular name brand of the turf that we used, I just know the subcontractor that we worked with to get the turf. He only used one brand and we liked his work and the quality of the turf.
This stuff is pretty regional. You can go to a place like Home Depot and look at turf but my understanding is that stuff is typically very low quality. I would suggest if you don't have a local home show to go to that you call around to landscapers and let them know you're interested in turf but that you need to see samples and give them a feel first. Your local landscape contractors may very well be willing to give you a list of their preferred turf suppliers and then you can go from there to try to get samples or visit showrooms if thats available.
Good luck.
