Ideal Buyers Guide

 Buyers Guide >> Tips For Easy Buying

While stepping down to the nearby store, just remember these simple tips that can aid you in your decision making:
Identify
As a user it becomes essential to understand the difference between a carpet and a rug. These terms are used interchangeably by many sellers. No worries. Just understand the basic difference. A carpet refers to a wall-to-wall covering and an area rug refers to a covering that can be spread at the centre of the flooring or wherever necessary.
Dig in
After identifying what you need, dig into the details of the category chosen. For instance, if you identified that an area rug will look more elegant in your dining hall, start the hunt. Your next step is to identify the products categorically and decide upon your priorities. For example, an area rug can be hand-knotted, hand-tufted, machine made, Sumak etc that defines a rug’s category. A hand-knotted rug makes use of natural fibre say wool and silk while a machine made rug may or may not use natural fibres. Your priority could be to use eco-friendly products therefore hand-knotted carpets are in match with your priorities. Click here to know about types of carpets
Knowing the right size
It is important to determine the size of the area where you want to place your rug or carpet and the size of the rug or carpet that will look explicit either in your dining room, kitchen, bedroom or guest room. Technically, for small areas- smaller rugs or scattered rugs would be ideal but for the dining rooms, kitchens and living rooms, big rugs should be chosen.
Check the fibre density
Whether you opt for a machine-made rug or a hand-made one, assure yourself about its durability or talk more about performance to your vendor. The denser the pile, the better your rug will wear. Moreover, rugs manufactured from the yarns like nylon, polyester, acrylic, and polypropylene "olefin" - and the naturals - wool and cotton - are durable, soft, and easy to clean.

Traffic of your house
Is the room in which you intend to install the new carpet, an area of high traffic? Or is it the area where there is a maximum possibility of staining of your carpets. If yes, then you should install carpets with dense pile in these areas. You should also prefer stain resistant carpet if you want it to be installed in the living room or dining room.
Colour
A dark colour can make a large room look smaller and vice versa. Plus in high traffic areas where staining is easily possible, dark colours are a big relief. Stains are more highlighted in rugs or carpets with light backgrounds which makes light colours ideal for areas where traffic is low. Thus, decide the pros and cons of your options and then carry forward.
Budget
Once you are through in knowing what can be the best, match your budget with varied options.
Search
It is advisable to get branded products as it adds credibility to what you purchase and it also guarantees a certain level of quality. So, search for nearby suppliers, retailers or manufacturers who can deliver what you want in no given time. Besides, also cross check your information about the dealers from your friends or other social circle before making a move. You can also refer online portals or trade magazines on carpets and rugs inorder to get the best information.
Deal
It is best to know the prices of what you want to purchase. Internet is a very safe option for resorting and cross checking the prices at which the dealers display their product. Now, that you have identified your dealer, also try to dig in if he is aware of carpet cleaners or maintenance guys nearby. Persuade the dealer to provide you a list of such agents so that you can get in touch with them whenever necessary.
Visualize
Again, the dealer has surrounded you with options and you are confused what to buy. Visualize your room while purchasing the carpet or area rug whatever suits your taste and style. While taking a look at the carpet or rug in front of you, try to imagine the flooring in your room, dining or office space with that product. Get into the mode of a decorator and see what difference it makes.
Take it or leave it
If your inner sense feels good about a product take the deal or else leave it. Here is a simple and straight forward statement that may suit you once you are tired of searching for that perfect one. Always strive for the best quality at the best price. It makes you feel like a winner by the end of the day!
