Choosing the right carpet for your home can be a daunting task. There are so many different colors, textures, and styles to choose from! However, when it comes down to it, there are really only three basic styles of carpet: loop, cut pile, and multi-level loop pile.
Style #1: Loop Carpet
Loop carpet is made from tufts of yarn that are looped back through the backing material. This type of carpet is very durable and therefore ideal for high-traffic areas such as living rooms and hallways. Loop carpet is also low-maintenance; it doesn't show footprints or vacuum marks as easily as other types of carpets. However, loop carpet is not as comfortable to walk on barefoot as other types of carpets because the loops can feel prickly.
Style #2: Cut Pile Carpet
Cut pile carpet is made from tufts of yarn that are cut at the tips and then stand upright. This type of carpet is more plush and luxurious feeling than loop carpet, making it ideal for bedrooms and other low-traffic areas. Cut pile carpet is also more likely to show footprints and vacuum marks than loop carpet, so it requires a bit more maintenance.
Style #3: Multi-Level Loop Pile Carpet
Multi-level loop pile carpet combines the best of both worlds: the durability of loop carpet with the plushness of cut pile carpet. This type of carpet is made from tufts of yarn that are looped back through the backing material at different heights, creating a textured effect. Multi-level loop pile carpets are also low-maintenance and resistant to footprints and vacuum marks. However, they can be more expensive than other types of carpets because they are more difficult to manufacture.
