Patch on area rug! Help!

I used a standard stain remover for my area rug and now it has these two patches. Doesn’t seem bleached but would love any advice on how to possibly blend it. It’s the Lucent area rug in Pink Grapefruit. Thanks!

Define standard stain remover?

Solvent based? Probably ruined the item, that is why they always say to test in an inconspicuous spot first!

Are any of the Boxmart carpet cleaners worth having?

[color=#000000]Looking at the various offerings for carpet cleaners - i.e. uses a surfactant solution, among the models that are configured like an upright vacuum is there one that's made solidly - effective and will last? Or do you have to go to something like a Rug Doctor to get one that really works. I've rented in the past, it's just a chore to have to lug it home and back to the store. [/color] Read More

Preferred carpet brands?

Hi, looking to close on a house soon. We went to the local flooring store and saw a few carpet samples from low price to high prices. One brand which we liked was Karastan but was in the much higher price range. We are looking to do 2-3 rooms with plush carpet and the rest of the rooms with semi plush carpet. We are trying to keep the budget low but don’t want carpet that will fail within 5 years. Any recommendations would be great. Thanks! Read More
