This was a great investment that helped me get the best quality at the lowest price. Thanks to this book, I was more knowledgeable than most carpet salesmen. They'll tell you anything to make a sell. Be armed with the best information before you make a large purchase such as carpet.

A Quick and Helpful Read -
Helpful information is provided which certainly makes the book worth the cost. However, it is short and should be combined into one book with another book by the author, "The Quick and Easy Guide to Carpet Shopping."

One tip that seems to have worked well for us is to get estimates on a specific brand and style of carpet. That way the sellers are forced to deal against each other simply on terms of price.

More information than expected -
I recently purchased this book, and saved 425 dollars on carpet for my rental. If I saved this much on every rental, I could take a vacation!! Anyway, there really wasn't a question that I had that wasn't answered by this book. I heartily recommend this to anyone who is going to buy carpet.

Perhaps better information elsewhere? -
I did not like this book because: It was too short. It was only 60 pages. 60 pages of paper stapled in the center. The information could be helpful to some If they had never read anything anywhere else ever about carpeting. I didn't feel like this "book" was worth the money. I think there might be more informative resources at a more economical value for the carpet buying consumer.

A very useful and informative guide. -
Before I read this book I was confused and did not know enough about carpet to know whether or not I was going about it in the right way. The stores I visited were not much help either, and in fact, they made me even more confused. I did an internet search hoping to gain a better understanding about selecting a carpet that would last, and that's where I found the authors website and about his carpet buying guide. I am glad that I ordered it, his book seems to be fairly complete, and it goes in depth about carpet scams and how retailers can overcharge. It has also helped me understand how this whole carpet buying process works. I have now gained the confidence to know what type of carpet I want and how to go about getting it without the fear of being taken advantage of. It has been quite a learning experience for me and I would recommend this book to people planning on buying carpet.
