The most straight forward video about carpet! I'm not trying to engineer carpet I just want good information before talking to a sales person so I have a clue. Thank you.

I agree with some of this, but definitely not all of it. I've been a pro carpet cleaner since 1987 and I see most of these carpets after they've actually been down for 20 and even 30 years. I agree wool is the best but definitely not for everybody and you have to be very careful about stain removal. One wrong stain product can ruin these expensive carpets pretty quick. Also, I think polypropylene is ideal for some of my customers and I also have seen it in rentals after 15 or 20 years with severe abuse, but they still clean up very well. For the overall general customer nylon is my number 1 pick for wear and resilience although wool is also very resilient. Some of these carpets do not do well in homes with dogs especially those that are not house-trained. Both wool and nylon are not generally good for dog owners who can't control their dogs properly. I've seen EXTREME damage caused by dogs quite a few times, particularly on wool and nylon. The same goes for area rugs made from these fibers.

I wish the guy in the flooring store I was in yesterday would have done this instead of just immediately trying to sell me the stuff that he has loads of sitting in the back 🙄

Polyester wears and matts,
It’s cheap but doesn’t last!

Nylon wears great and is less expensive then wool,
Get nylon in a cut/loop and you will get a lot of years and performance!

You're the first person I've seen who's rated Triexta below Nylon 6 or in most cases 6, 6. You even said it yourself, it's the softest, it's the most stain resistant, and the most resilient. The only con was you can see the traffic. I don't understand why it's below Nylon.

I bought a polyester carpet recently and I really hate the sandpaper like sound it makes in socks. Is nylon any better?

I just purchased Karastan smartstrand, I don't recall it saying anything about silk. Is all smartstrand the same?

I prefer the latter of the unmentioned options which many of my brothers and sisters rely on to last till the end of time regardless the wear or tear and DOES NOT show stains or require any maintenance for the entirety of its use whether that be years, decades or even millennia…it’s probably the best kept secret in the industry and they don’t want you to know because it’ll just cut into their profits. But the most commonly used flooring especially in the exclusive far-east regions of the world that I’m referring to is..dirt. Kids love it, animals deficate freely in it and heck folks will always enter as well as leave your home commenting on the uniqueness of this aspect of flooring. The only foreseeable downside is getting it wet at which point it’s now referred to as mud but just avoid it for 2-3 days and it will (yep you guessed it) return to its normal solidified state at which point the whole family is welcome to once again roll around on it. 😀 👍

You need to take textile classes to explain it better. You have an idea but still not explaining it correctly. You sound like you kinda know but its best to get some education and youll notice education =knowledge
