Carpet Buying Tips > Fiber Type > Nylon

Nylon fiber is generally more expensive than polyester and 
olefin fiber and in the same style as polyester will look the same 
brand new.  After a year of wear a carpet made of nylon will 
still look new while a carpet made of polyester will already 
show permanent wear.  Nylon carpet is also generally softer to 
the hand than both polyester and olefin.  Nylon carpet is 
available in all the most popular styles including plush, berber, 
and frieze.
