With many different carpet styles, it can be difficult to make a decision about which carpet is best. The two main types are loop and cut pile. Loop pile carpets are durable, stain resistant, and have a low profile. Berber carpet is an example of loop pile carpet. Cut pile carpets are denser and softer than loop pile carpet. Carpet can be made from either synthetic or natural fibers. See our carpet guide for more information on carpet styles available.
