I do like the way carpet feels, but I really don't like the way it
behaves when it comes into contact with dirt ;-)

We've gone for carpet in the bedrooms, landing and stairs. But no carpet
anywhere else. It's nice.

What beats me is that the laminate floor manufacturers have produced
just about every grain or style known to man, yet they still have no
carpet-patterned laminate. For those who like carpets, surely this
could be a half-way house? I mean, at first glance you'd never know my
floors weren't covered with offcuts from beech trees.
