Good Carpet is best

There is nothing like walking barefoot on great carpet.

This is an area where you do not want to scrimp, but you do not need to break the bank. I always tend to go a little over the middle of the road on carpet. There does not seem to be much difference between the most expensive and the upper middle quality. Or at least much of a difference when you are out of the show room. There is maybe a little more stain resistance or a little softer feel that you will only notice with the two 8 inch swatches side by side. I have never been disappointed with going that route with a decision on


carpet.

I also usually chose a carpet that is a little darker than my original decision. So that it does not show traffic dirt as easily as a lighter choice, and it does not look as dingy as soon.
