What are some ways to tell a quality carpet apart from a shoddy one?

There are a few ways to distinguish quality carpets from regular ones. The first and one of the most reliable is the material. Generally, if you go for carpets with fiber quality, such as nylon, wool, and polyester, you will have at least a guaranteed base level of quality.

Additionally, you may want to check the dye quality. Carpets with vibrant and consistent colors are usually a good sign, while those that have uneven and faded colors are generally not good enough. Moving on, we have other key factors, such as the tufting density (high tuft counts are a good sign), backing, and pile height for comfort and sound absorption.

Lastly, I also learned while working on Carpets Halifax that when choosing the right carpet, factors like stain resistance and even the touch and feel all matter. Feel free to check out this page for more details on the topic.
