Product Review: Next Big Thing

Next Big Thing



Tuftex is a mill based out of California that does a really good job creating carpet trends. NEXt BIG THING is a new 73oz Stainmaster introduction. It is a longer frieze with very small deniered (looks like spaghetti) yarn. Most would call it a shag but its not really that long. The 12 colors are predominantly earthy with two tones and a black yarn.

This type of carpet is very durable, However you will need to understand how the carpet will perform. The yarns will lay down and to get them to stand back up again you will need to vacuum. Don't panic this isn't a bad thing. When you walk on the sides of yarn it will becomes very hard for that yarn to come untwisted and bloom. When this happens it is very unsightly.

Also the tone on tone colors and black yarn will hide allot of day to day wear, stains and soil.

Another great option for this carpet would be to build area rugs. It is already equipped with a soft back to protect your wood.

Please come in and take a look!
