Carpet styles: Berber to loop pile to shag

Have you considered which carpeting style you might like best as you shop for the best flooring for your home? There are plenty to choose from, and it's worth taking a moment to consider these three and what they might be able to offer.

Carpeting styles matter


When you choose a specific style for your carpet flooring, you choose all the characteristics and attributes that go along with it. Since each product has benefits that work for some but not all, it might be best to consider these facts.

Berber carpet is outstanding for both beauty and performance, with stain protection, durability, and a long lifespan, if well cared for. In addition, it offers a looped fiber that helps keep the flooring clean and neat, available in various colors.

Carpets define loop pile carpet with fibers that are not sheared off when passed through the backing material. As a result, they are often easier to clean and work well in busy spaces.

Shag carpet is probably best known as a remnant of the 60s and 70s, but it's pretty popular these days as well. With a stunning unkempt appearance, they are luxuriously soft and elegant.
