Question

Accepted Answer

There is no universal ‘best’ carpet for allergies; individual sensitivities vary. Dense, lower‑pile carpets can make regular vacuuming more effective at removing trapped particles, while some people prefer hard surfaces for ease of cleaning. Natural fibres such as wool behave differently to synthetics in terms of dust retention and shedding; this does not guarantee an allergy outcome. Good maintenance — frequent vacuuming with an appropriate setting, prompt spill care and periodic professional cleaning — reduces allergen build‑up. Some carpet ranges are available in wider formats, which can reduce joins; current widths vary by product and should be confirmed.
