Is There A Place For Carpet In The Modern Home?

My favorite part of any listing appointment... there in the den rests some plush 2013 vintage carpet. The owners swear by the comfort such thread provides and point to the grocery store carpet cleaner rental invoice from somewhere around the last election. 

I have owned homes with carpet, and frankly such flooring is nice on cold mornings. As a dog owner, I changed to tile and wood as soon as funds were available. Since then there hasn't been a moment I thought, "gee I could go for some carpet". 

What are you thoughts on the upscale, upgraded carpet? Extra padding, plush texture, cool colors. In your opinion, should home owners consider carpet when replacing their flooring? Are there certain rooms carpet would be better received than others??

Hello Doug - carpet, like any decorating choice, is a personal preference.  There are those who avoid it, while others view it more favorably.  And that's what makes the world go 'round.

Good morning Doug. I have moved from carpet to tile to wood floors with a new inclination to consider Luxury Vinyl planking. Michael Jacobs sums it up well, it is a combination of personal preference and timing. Enjoy your day.

Doug, I have mostly wood floors, but carpet in the bedrooms.  It gets cold here in the winter, and nice to jump out of bed onto carpet.

Hi Doug- I would be happy without any carpeting. Wood, tile or some variation of them are easier to clean and better for those with allergies or pets.
