Wild Silk Sandstorm - does not wear well
We have Wild Silk in Sandstorm, which was advertised as suitable for a living room and being stain resistant. It really isn’t. After just a year it has gone really flat in areas of high traffic, there are everyday stains which I can’t remove with a Vax carpet cleaner or store products. It also seems to trap dust and dirt, it is visibly grubby where it’s exposed to the light. We are a shoes off household, it’s hoovered at least twice per week and has been fully washed about 3 times in 7 months. It’s not even in our main living room and we don’t have an open fire in the house or stove or anything like that. It’s a new barn conversion with all new flooring and this carpet has been by far the worst and most expensive.
Got in touch with Abingdon who sent someone out and said it was to be expected. It will need replaced in the next year or so.
