To shop smart, you must first understand how carpet is constructed.
Fiber is the basic material and the vast majority of fibers are synthetic.
It retains its appearance, resists fading and stains, and offers the widest range of colors and styles.
If you want the top performing fiber, look for type 6.
Polyester is a relatively new carpet fiber.
Wool is the original carpet fiber and the most expensive.
There are three basic steps to constructing carpet.
Next, the small loops of yarn are trimmed to create cut pile or patterned loopened pile.
For loop construction, the tufts are not cut.
Then the carpet is dyed.
Knowing a few keywords will help you shop smart.
Pile height is the link of the fiber from the backing to the tip of the yarn.
Stitch rate is the number of tufts per inch of carpet links.
A stitch rate of 7 or 8 is good, 3 or 4 is poor.
Face weight is the number of ounces of fiber used per square yard.
Higher density products were best.
Use these measurements to rate selections with the same fiber or width.
Twist refers to how the fiber is turned into yarn.
The tighter the twist, the stronger the yarn, and the more durable the carpet.
Textured cut pile carpet has a twotone appearance that hides food prints.
Saxony offers a uniform twist and finish of each yarn giving it a smooth, velvety look.
Saxony styles are best used in less traveled areas of the home.
Frieze cut pile high twist construction gives it high durability alongside a stylish knobby texture.
Cable carpet is made from long, thick yarns that although comfortable will mat and crush in heavy traffic.
Cable is a great choice for the bedroom.
First, thicker is not always better.
Look at the construction of the carpet.
Each yarn should be tightly twisted, not frayed at the end.
Check the pile density by doing the smile test in the sample like this.
The less packing you see, the more durable the product.
