This textured one is for the kids bedrooms, guest bedroom/office and the living room. It is Dixie Home "Blueprint" - color Chinchilla. 126 Yds. It is a special polyester blend that is super soft and is much like Dupont's Smartstrand line which we love the feel of.
This is Tuftex "Crystal Visions" in Sun City. It is on our stairs, hallway, and master bedroom floor. It's not my favorite but Ben really likes it. It looks nice and should wear well. 86 Yds.
Both carpets were on the lower end of the price scale since we were at the end of the build and therefore the budget. Shaw just came out with a new carpet that is so so soft and super plush and had I wanted to double our carpet budget we could have gone for it. Unfortunatly not worth it for a house we will only be in for a few short years. Both the Tuftex and the Dixie Home ones we got have great wear ratings so they should stay new looking - especially since we have employed the no eating on the carpet rule. We'll see how long that lasts - so far so good.
Carpet shopping is fun!
