Had to be the weirdest carpet experience ever. Stopped in to look at «dog proof» carpet. I know, there’s no such thing but I had to see if there was a chance. Had a «gentleman» approach me as I’m walking in, kinda reminded me of a used car salesman(just had that look). So I ask about dog proof carpet. He shows me carpet made for animal traffic that also has a great guarantee. Before I could look at the different patterns he walks me over to the«CHEAP» carpet and proceeds to tell me I could change«this» carpet 3 times for the price of the doggie carpet(even references his math). I’m thinking, seriously, so this cheap carpet is gonna hold it’s price forever, and every 3 or 4 years I have to move all my furniture, go into his store and find more«cheap» carpet etc, etc, etc. He even goes onto explain that since he has the cheap carpet in stock he can work on the price point. I’m stunned, confused, a lot disappointed. As I walk out I see the dog proof carpet I originally was looking at was on sale. All I can figure is he was out to get rid of his in stock carpet. Won’t go back, hate being pushed to something I don’t want.

We had a really fabulous experience with Lonnie’s… After shopping around for flooring on a VERY tight budget, and I want to stress the VERYTIGHTBUDGET piece, we happened upon Lonnie’s. We needed a smallish room re-floored before having close to 75 people here for our son’s graduation party and we were on a REALLY tight, eating 39 cent ramen for a week budget. Originally this room was carpeted in the cheapest and crappiest almost white carpeting that money could buy… which was new when we moved in, so it wasn’t OUR choice in carpet… and after raising 5 kids for 8 years in this family room with a fireplace and koolaid and cats, it HAD to go, because no self respecting homemaker and Momma was going to have a party for her child and have 75 of their closest friends and family to the house to see this hot mess. We dealt with Tad as our salesman. Ken and Barbie(NOJOKE, a husband and wife team) installed the hardwood. Ken and Barbie were BRILLIANT… highly professional, very attentive to detail, and just LOVED wood. I had beautiful and unique solid hardwood installed within 5 days for probably less than that original craptacular carpeting cost.

DON’T BUYCARPETHERE!!! I bought some carpet here back in may and i still have no resolution. they were here 2 weeks ago the last time. i have a terrible seam that shows right in the middle of my dining rm/living rm they’ve looked at it several times and finally told me its just the color of the carpet and the light that comes into my house(i don’t buy that) however you see it more in the dark, its a warranty issue and they don’t wanna take care of it responsibly
