STAINMASTER is wonderfully providing the carpet for our home. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

Have you been following my journey to getting new carpet for our home? Well, we now have our beautiful new STAINMASTER carpet installed in our home.

We went with the STAINMASTER Active Family carpet because of it's durability and I was super excited when the wonderful Reimer Floors installers knocked on our door with our new carpet in tow.

The installation only took about a half of a day but the transformation was amazing.

I took some photos while they worked away installing our carpet and making sure it was perfect.





As you can see we have STAINMASTER carpet padding as well, this is important if your getting STAINMASTER carpet because you want to protect your investment with the best padding. By the way, if you have pets STAINMASTER also has a great new flooring option with padding built just for people with pets called STAINMASTER Pet Protect.

We went with an 8lb STAINMASTER carpet padding. STAINMASTER carpet padding will extend the life of your carpet and protect the floors underneath. When it’s installed with your new STAINMASTER carpet, it will also extend your carpet limited warranties. Here is a little more detail on STAINMASTER carpet padding from STAINMASTER's website -

STAINMASTER® carpet padding proprietary breathable moisture barrier

Keeps most common household spills from penetrating the cushion and subfloor

Makes clean-up easy, which helps to stop reappearing stains on the carpet

Helps to protect the cushion from mold and mildew formation by allowing damaging water vapors to pass through the cushion and evaporate

Available with odor reducing or antimicrobial technology upgrades.

This way any spills that happen won't seep into the padding and keep magically reappearing even after you clean them up.

So, drum roll please... Here is our final result -

Our new carpet is beautiful but best of all it's incredibly soft on the little hands and feet that play on our floors daily. It's so incredibly cushy and perfect for our now walking 10-month old. She's still learning and falls quite a bit and I'm so glad to have such a wonderfully soft floor for her to walk on.

Both of my girls LOVE the new flooring because its so soft to play on and I love getting on the floor and playing right there along with them on our lovely new carpet.

We've already had a couple of little spills happen and I'm happy to report that both of them came up without any problem. I've used simple water and a towel to clean the messes up and it comes up clean perfectly.

My family is so grateful to have had the opportunity to give our first hand opinions on STAINMASTER Active Family carpets and I'm happy to say that we all love it. It's holding up to it's durable promise and I'll say it again it's SO soft I just can't get over it!

If you're looking for new carpet for your home I would very highly recommend visiting a STAINMASTER dealer and get the Active Family carpet. There are so many options and it's durable and made with the high foot traffic, messes and mishaps that come with a family home filled with love and fun.
