Are Stainmaster Carpets Safe

Very unsatisfied 1 out of 5 review.

Are stainmaster carpets safe. Stain resistance nylon is a very absorbent fiber so to prevent spills from sinking deep into the fibers and leaving stains it must be protected with a stain treatment. Carpets are also sometimes treated with antimicrobial coatings like ultrafresh to prevent bacterial growth in the fibers. I will not purchase or recommend stainmaster carpeting ever again. Lowe s their installation people and stainmaster could care less about my issues.

They have also been solution dyed with durable built in color that will not fade over time. People who struggle with pet hair odors and staining will also benefit. For this reason it is extremely important that nylon carpet is steam cleaned every 12 to 18 months at minimum more often in very high traffic areas to ensure longevity. They got my money so too bad for me or you.

Beware of warranty white stain master pet carpet three years ago from lowe s had my carpet cleaned every 12 months after the third year my carpet cleaner has been a professional for 30 years set my carpet look like it was 15 years old stain master only warranties the carpet not staining the backing is made. Unlike other carpets where liquids begin to pool or seep into the fibers liquids on stainmaster bead up making it easier to clean. The quest for non toxic carpeting is tough as carpets and their backings are often made of synthetic materials treated with hazardous chemical sprays and then installed with adhesives. The best carpeting option for owners of indoor pets not only are the carpets in the stainmaster petprotect range able to withstand pet related soiling and staining.

But because we have some really safe options available these days newer carpets can be a good choice for your home. Stainmaster carpets are made with soil repelling technology that causes the fibers to push away dirt and other staining substances allowing your carpet to stay fresh. Older carpets in particular can contain toxins like endocrine disruptors phthalates and volatile organic compounds vocs which can contribute to a variety. Pet owners particularly those with active cats and dogs.

These chemicals found in products like stainmaster or scotchgard have been identified as likely carcinogens and are associated with birth defects and hormone disruption. So i d say that yes old carpets are categorically bad news. Stainmaster also advises that these carpets help to break down nasty pet odors too which can otherwise be tricky to remove. Consumers be aware of manufacturer and installation warranties they are basically useless.
