I am only doing the bedrooms. I know carpet and probably padding has changed since we last bought carpet. I'm not concerned about color yet, just what texture, thickness, and pad to get. What would you put in your bedrooms if you planned on selling? I don't want builder grade because we might stay here awhile, but I don't want to put in something really expensive either.

p.s. I've been out looking and as I expected, am more confused than informed. One salesman told me to get nylon rather than polyester as it wears better. True?
