Your Carpet and Your Personality Type

When it’s time to choose the right carpet for your home, look in the mirror. If it reflects a room with unattractive floors, it’s definitely time to get a nice new carpet. Once you’ve decided that for sure, though, look at yourself. The type of person you are determines what lifestyle you lead. The lifestyle you lead at home determines the best carpet for your space.

Choose the personality profile that fits you best, and find the right carpet for you:

The Entertainer
Are you checking your reflection on the way out to the next cocktail party? Soon it’ll be your turn to host, and you’ll want a carpet that will stand up to traffic from minglers and wallflowers alike. A sturdy level loop cut pile carpet can handle high heels and high traffic without wearing down. Look for stain-resistant nylon carpets in darker colors to camouflage spilled wine, or be prepared to institute a clear cocktails only rule.

The Parent
The pitter-patter of little feet will be blessedly muffled by a carpeted floor, but that doesn’t mean your worries are over. Shop around for carpets that are thick and textured enough to mask footprints, like frieze or multi-level loop carpeting. Kids’ rooms are also a good place to consider large, room-spanning area rugs. You can find area rugs with kid-friendly designs like cartoon characters, and once they’re past the cartoons and spilling everything stage, their room will still have a great stain-free carpet underneath.

The Homebody
If your home activities include channel surfing, reading under the lamp, and reveling in the glorious quiet, then you can have your choice of carpeting. Cut loop pile carpet is great for informal areas like dens or living rooms. If you want a cushier walk from the recliner to the fridge, try Saxony plush carpeting. Reading rooms look great with lighter carpets to pick up the sunlight, and a deeper-colored carpet in a den can bring a cozy feel.

The Hedonist
It’s Saxony plush carpet all the way for those who value the good things in life. This thick, luxurious carpet is perfect for walking on barefoot, and it looks great in all areas of the home from formal to informal. Step up the luxe factor even further by getting your Saxony plush carpet in a pale, rich shade like beige or champagne. Hedonism doesn’t include a whole lot of cleaning, so make sure you get a carpet with the maximum level of stain resistance.

Carpet safe? Check the label

For many years now, there's been a big concern over healthy interiors and with good reason. The air you breathe affects your health and indoor air has claim to most of the hours in your day.

Many articles have been written about pollutants in paints, wallpaper, adhesives, flooring, air coming through the air-conditioning system, plastics that emit toxins -- and the list goes on. The causes for the pollutants are many but the most talked about seems to be volatile organic compounds.

One product that draws attention in the polluting category is carpet. Many are concerned with pollutants that might be found in carpeting, particularly a brand-new carpet and the padding and adhesives used, but upon closer examination, this actually isn't always the case.

''Carpet is a safe, cost-effective and fashionable choice for many indoor settings,'' said Alexander Peykar, a leader in today's floor-covering market. Actually, according to the Carpet and Rug Institute, carpet is one of the lowest emitters of volatile organic compounds.

''Green'' seems to be the latest buzzword in interior design and many manufacturers strive to attain ''green'' status. To achieve ''green'' status for carpets, adhesives and padding, the Carpet and Rug Institute offers an in-depth testing program, called Green Label/Green Label Plus, to identify healthier carpet and rug options.

A Green Label indicates that a rug or carpet (plus, cushioning and adhesives) is emitting the lowest level of volatile organic compounds possible and indicates that a product is one of the industry's best for indoor air quality.

So, is your carpet making you sick? Check to see if it has been awarded the Green Label/Green Label Plus bill of health. If it is an old carpet, you will need to call the manufacturer. If you are purchasing a new carpet, the information should be on the label or the salesperson should be able to verify the 'greenness'' for you.

Experts say don't cut corners when choosing a carpet

First, there are several types and textures.

"You have cut pile. You have loop carpets. You have twisted carpets, friezes. You have shag carpets," explained Larry Chiprut of ABC Carpet and Home. "Each one has to be used for individual applications. One is not better than another; it's a matter of individual preference and it's a matter of how you want your room to look."

The pile is the height of the carpet. A more plush, high-pile carpet will be softer under your feet and offer a luxurious feel. A low pile or flat-weave type will offer a more contemporary look.

Also think about fabric. Wool is the standard, the best of the best, but there are the synthetic fibers, like nylon and polypropylene, which are durable and will last a long time.

"Then you have the sisal fibers and the natural fibers, which are made from anything from cocoa plants to abaca, which is a banana plant, and those are the sisal fabrics used today and are very, very popular," said Chiprut.

Another option in carpeting that is very popular is eco-friendly carpeting. Some texture options are all natural, which is wool that has no dyes or chemicals and is held together by a natural adhesive, or you could go with a synthetic that is made of recycled materials or a corn product.
Experts say the true test of quality is density, which is the amount of yarn per square yard. Just touch the carpet and look at the bottom to see how tightly woven it is. The tighter it is, the better the quality.

Once you pick the carpet, make sure you have the appropriate padding.

"If you are looking to buy a flat-weave type of carpet and achieve that look, stay with that type of pad; stay with a flat pad," said Chiprut. "Don't mix a soft, spongy pad with a flat carpet just to get a soft feel. You are not accomplishing anything. If you want a softer feel, buy a softer, plusher carpet."

Lastly, experts say the key to carpeting is really the installation. Make sure you use a craftsman who will do it well, because its one area where you don't want to cut corners.
