I am with you on carpeting. It absorbs liquid, dust, odors, etc.. Plus the fiber breaks up into dust that you breathe in.

The idea of living with the slate(?) floor is a good one. Definitely low cost.

i cannot understand whyc arpeting exists. it seems inherently unsanitary. maybe if I were neater. Or my people were neater. But we basically need to vacuum every day. carpet seems bad to me,

When we bought our current house about seven years ago we had it finished with tile in every room, including closets. We then bought a gazillion of those wool rugs Costco was selling (made in India). They allow you to clean UNDER the carpet, which is, IMO, essential after pulling up the carpet in our condo a few years ago.

We will NEVER go back to carpet. When we build our next house you can be sure the floor will be some sort of stone — everywhere.

We wear slippers around the house BTW, and have two dogs.

YMMV.

Dex-o-tex is an interesting option.
I like the smooth uniform finish throughout.
