Carpet ______________________________

Step1: Pick the type of fiber 

To pick the right fiber, consider how you live in each room. There are basically four types of fiber: 

Nylon

Nylon is the most durable carpet fiber available. It is the carpet of choice for homes with pets and children and for those who entertain a lot. Perfect for heavy traffic in hallways and stairs. 

Polyester

Polyester is known for its luxurious look, feel and wonderful selection of colors and styles. It's a good value for homes with a normal amount of traffic, although less durable and stain resistant than nylon. 

Olefin

Olefin offers good stain and moisture resistance, but scores below nylon and polyester for wearability. It can be a good choice in loop pile construction although its colors and styles are limited. 

Wool

Favored for its natural beauty. It has natural soil resistance quality, but is not stain resistant. Wool looks good for a long time and is constructed well, but may be too expensive for most people.
