Is it reasonable for someone to put carpet in their kitchen or bathroom? Just wondering.

    Once you have your toilet or sewage system back up onto that carpet, you will wish you never thought of that idea. I would always go tile or vinyl in those areas.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    F carpet in those areas. I don't think you'd ever see a carpeted kitchen here (Texas), I think it's against fire code.

    Our house was standard with carpet in both baths, but we insisted on vinyl, and bought the extra tile to match the kichten and living areas to install ourselves later.

    Cheers,

    Hell, the way most guys aim you wouldn't have to wait for a back up to know you'd made a mistake in the bathroom. :)

    Remember back in the mid 70's when Kitchen carpet was very popular? The carpet looked like vinyl with the same type of patterens, it was very thin, and it had black rubber backing. If you spilled something on it the rubber kept it from soaking through. I remember when my parents installed carpet in the kitchen, and then later the bathroom. It was cool at first but was really just a fad. Carpet in the bathroom just gets piss all over it.
