  Fair enough. I do think they're nicer in places like bedrooms, but in high traffic living areas, I prefer other stuff.
context: Awww I love this! Unpopular opinion, yes, but you make excellent points. Carpet can feel super cozy and nice. I just prefer hardwood or vinyl floors, but your opinion is very valid and well thought-out. >
  
  Yeah, they’ve all got their strengths. I would personally rank carpet first, vinyl second, and hardwood 3rd, but at the end of the day it’s all just harmless personal preference >
  
  I prefer carpets in rooms that need better audio/noise handling. Bedrooms and home theater.
  I prefer a hard floor (tile in my case) in all high traffic areas, kitchen, and bathrooms. >
  
  Oh for sure, I would never want carpet in a bathroom or kitchen. Other rooms are up for debate, but carpet won’t touch those >
  
  Carpets are nice is you don’t have pets. 
  We got rid of all carpets and put laminate flooring throughout our house. Looks just as nice as hardwood floor, but much more resilient to dents and scratches. They’re also waterproof which is great >
  
  I liked having carpet even with my dog, but agree that laminate or vinyl floor is also good >
  
  I just replaced all my wood floors with vinyl. No more special cleaners. No more freaking out over spills or pee spots. No more worrying about scratches. Just beautiful, pvc peace. >
  
  Congratulations! Sounds like a solid upgrade >
  
  Carpet is pretty disgusting, especially in the major living space. I prefer the other options. >
  
  It can be when it’s not cared for properly, so I understand your preference. Mine is just different.
