10 Reasons To Buy Berber Carpet

We hear allot about Berber carpet but have you ever wondered
where they came from? Berber carpet was named after
handmade bulky wool that was textured and used by a tribe in
North Africa. The tribe was called the Berber tribe. Now isn't that
convenient. The Berber carpet of today follows much of the
tradition of the Berber tribe using flecked bulky yarns to create
beautiful carpets. Here are 10 reasons to buy Berber carpet over
other carpet choices.

1. Unique

The flecked looped yarns used to make Berber carpets provide
unique stylish carpets that have a uniqueness that makes a Berber
carpet easily identifiable.

2. Choice in Loop Size

You can get various loop sizes in Berber so there is a size for every
room and decor. From large rather knobby loops to small tight
loops. There are several industry choices including cut and loop
designs, multi level loops, and level loops.

3. Hypo-allergenic

Berber is the perfect choice for anyone with allergies or children.
It is made from wool so it is non toxic and non allergenic and it
stops bacterial growth right in its tracks.

4. Comfortable

The manufacturing process created wool loops that have millions
of air pockets in them so the carpet has a nice cushiony feeling
when you walk on it. It also has an insulation factor because of
the weave which helps regulate the temperature of the room.

5. Hardy

Berber is one of the most durable and easy carpets to clean.
Stains are easily lifted and it takes a lot of miles on the carpet for
it to show any wear. Berber is well known for its longevity while
still looking as new as the day it was installed. It hardly ever shows
footprints, and it doesn't show the lines from the vacuum cleaner.
The only thing you need to watch is that you don't snag it and
damage it.

6. More Affordable

Now there is a little irony here. Pure wool carpet and it's cheaper
than nylon, olefin, or any of the man made products while at the
same time outlasting them and looking new for much longer.
Berber is one of the most affordable choices in carpet and yet it
looks richer than many of the other choices available to you.

7. Color Choices

Color choices are mixed and varied and include earthen or neutral
colors, dark colors, and even pastel colors. Not only are there
plenty of colors to choose from there are plenty of patterns to
choose from. Because of the way the carpets are made
depending on how the yarns are twisted and the pile density will
depend on the look and pattern of the finished rug. Berber offers
more choices than almost any other type of carpet.

8. Hide Sub floor

Because of the density of Berber carpet you can easily hide
irregularities in the sub floor without spending an arm and a leg to
repair or replace the sub floor. This makes Berber very cost
effective especially in older homes that are having the rugs
redone.

9. Variety of Grades

Just like other carpets you can choose a variety of grades which
determine how plush the carpet is. Berber is available in a variety
of grades and they even have a product designed to go right
over concrete.

10. Economical

Besides being one of the most economical carpets to buy Berber
is also one of the most economical carpets to have installed.
Because it is an easy carpet to lay you can often find installation at
less per square foot than other carpets.

So if you want to add a richness and quality to your home I've
given you 10 reasons to buy Berber carpet. So what are you
waiting for?

Great article to read. However, many people out there do not make the different between Berber rugs or carpets. Unless made by solely the Berbers of North africa with their typical weave using sheep wool, camel hair or Nylon to cheaper versions. Do not buy the immitated ones made in other countries, that is a terrible decision that you would've ever made.
Please see some real examples of the Berber carpets/rugs, you can also purchase them directly online. Guarantee given.
