Hate our new carpet!!!

Just come home to see the new carpet and I hate it 😖😖 I wanted a soft grey with a bit of a sheen. I think we've gone too thick, you can see every footprint and hoovering it makes it look awful!!!! I could actually cry we've had it across the whole of the upstairs and it cost a fortune. I'm so upset with myself.

Have you put the furniture back? That will make a difference. Live with it a few days and then, if you still don't like it, buy some rugs to break it up a bit.

Lie down and have a good tantrum about it - it will be nice and cosy down there!

Wait till it's been walked on a bit, it'll change and soften the colour.

Furnitures gone in. Left it a day. Hoovered it like crazy. Still hate it 😫 I'm such an idiot how have I got this so wrong?! I think I've gone too dark too so the lighter shine shows up too much. Basically a huge fail

I have hated our stairs and landing carpet since it was laid. I got used to it eventually but I will never like it. Give it time and you will stop thinking about it.

I'm sure that once the furniture is back and it's had some time down it will be ok. Give it a wee chance

I was exactly the same with mine. The colour will fade and it will look less thick over time. I'm not crazy about ours but I don't hate it anymore.
