"Worse carpet ever"
I had Shaw Berber carpet installed about 3 years ago. Within 6 months
snags started to appear, it was supposed to be snag proof, and a few
months later as I was vacuuming and few long strands of the carpet tore
out and wrapped around the brush. Snags continue to appear and another
few strands tore out. This is the worst carpet I have ever seen, it is in
worse shape than the old carpet that was 20 years old. I will not buy
this brand name carpet again or recommend to anyone.

"DEFECTIVE CARPET"
We had our whole house carpeted with Shaw, we went with burgundy in
living room and dining room and hall. The color was immediately coming
out on socks and linoleum, we contacted installer and they replaced
all, one year later it is still doing the same. We were fed up and did
not want to argue so we deal with it.

Review:
"AWEFUL!!! Carpet 7 Months old."
We took possession of our house in middle of April 2011. As of October,
we already have crushing and matting issues with this product. The say
it isn't covered by warranty. Well, what is covered then?
I have noticed how many people have complained and I am curious to know why Ryan Homes have decided to use this garbage company to supply carpet? I plan to make my OPINION known by chain emails, FaceBook, Twitter, Angie's list, the Better Business Bureau and every review board I can find. Shame on you Ryan Homes for contracting these fools!

"Horrible carpet"
We purchased the Shaw "Great Scott" carpet when we built a new house.
Being a new house with new carpet we never wore shoes on it. Within one
year the carpet had lost the luster it had and was now a flat color and
also had very bad flattened trails in the hallways and living area. Even
though I had to move all of my stuff myself, the carpet was replaced for
free. Within 8 months, the new carpet looked the same and I was told the
wear was normal. I will never have shaw again.

"Shaw Carpet, Never again!"
We purchased Shaw White Shag for our living room 1 year ago. In the
hallway its flattened out bad, its like we are walking on a hard floor.
Just me and my wife walk on it! Someone came out from Shaw and said its
oil from or feet, I said no, we ware socks, this carpet is not dirty! So
we got it clean like he said, and still flat. Its garbage carpet, and I
wouldn't recommend anyone purchasing Shaw carpet. And their warranty is
a joke, ours is suppose to have a life time! But of course no one will
call back or fix the problem!

"very disappointed"
Shaw carpet didn't hold up and Bob Wagner's Carpet Mill treated me badly
when I asked for refund. Do not buy Shaw carpet and I don't recommend
Bob Wagner's.

Worst carpet ever purchased. Called carpet store after six months, it

"Rows across the width of Brand New Shaw carpet"
Very disappointed. Two days after the Shaw-My Dream II carpet was
installed, I saw parallel rows or lines one inch apart running across
the width of the carpet! The entire carpet...living room, dining room,
halls and bedroom! It looks as if it's a striped carpet! I contacted
installer who promptly returned, took pictures and contacted Shaw. Shaw
asked for a sample of the carpet! Still waiting on an answer from Shaw.
The display samples I choose the carpet from showed no pattern or lines!
This is an expensive Anso, softbac, stain and wear resistant, with 5
star warranties...top quality carpet, (or so I thought)...or s very
expensive lesson if Shaw doesn't stand behind its product. I will post
Shaws response! The color is lovely and it is very soft! But I didn't
pick a carpet with rows of lines!

"Junk Carpet Do not buy"
This carpet is about 2.5-3 years old and when I central vac it I fill up the bucket with fibers it is about 750 square feet. The representative said that this carpet will do that it looks like 30 year old carpet also but they call it corn rowing said the carpet is fine and will not stand be hide there carpet. All I have to say don't buy there junk carpet. We are selling this house and we are replacing at our cost. I do not want the people to buy a 600,000.00 house with bad carpet.

Review:
"Shaw BERBER Carpet Unravelling"
We bought our Shaw Berber Carpet, Style Name -Revolution, Color-00111 Ivory Bisque from a very reputable dealer for a rental unit. The dealer assured us it was great for heavy wear and long lasting, giving us a 5-year Quality Assurance and 5-year Stain Resistance Warranty. Note: Our tenants have two teenage girls and a very docile dog. The mother has very successful professional cleaning company. It?s how we know her. They are very clean and fastidious.
In less than 9 months, the carpet began unraveling, pulling in straight lines, during vacuuming at the seams and in the various areas of the carpet. Then, it became even worse after one carpet shampooing.
After we complained, the dealer had the Shaw area representative come out. He first said it was the dog. Old dog, doesn?t dig, and spends the working hours in a cage. The Shaw representative, using his moisture sensor, also tried to imply the rug was damp from shampooing, or dog urine. NO/NO. SHAW claims it is the tenants fault. WE REJECT THEIR ASSESSMENT.
Just on this website, we found several similar problems with SHAW BERBER unraveling. We want everyone to know we are VERY DISAPPOINTED and recommend you NEVER buy carpet from SHAW without an IRON-CLAD GUARANTEE.
