KAOUD Carpets & rugs

I received excellent customer service from initial browsing through to delivery in my experience with Kaoud rugs. Communication was thorough and prompt. Ease of shopping and payment was beyond what I could have anticipated. And, the rug we chose is the perfect completion to our home! - 9/16/2022 

Very professional and clearly and slowly explained the work done. I am coming back again. Nice people. Great job. - 11/04/2021 

The tired and dusty little hall rug I left off at Kaoud's was a beauty when unrolled there a short time later. The background red glowed, and the rose, pink, green, and cream colors in the center were bright and clean. And, the ends were repaired. Fred K*** was a pleasure to meet, generous with his time. He explained the rug's background, how it would be cleaned and repaired. And suggested the best option for a rug pad; a pleasure to my bare feet! Kaud's would be my recommendation to evaluate a carpet, assess problem areas, and restore/clean expertly. - 2/20/2019 

Kaoud's is the absolute best carpet store around! They have been on our go-to for expert cleaning of our oriental carpets for years - no matter how difficult the pet stain challenge, they always get the stain out and make the carpet look better than before! Kaoud's also has a beautiful selection of carpets to fit any home. Fred and team have the best service ever! - 7/26/2021 

Great selection, excellent service, and delivered promptly (on a holiday no less). We were very pleased with our Kaoud experience! - 9/08/2021 

we sent out carpets that had been abused by pets and they came back brand new, perfectly clean, no pet odors, no stains, like magic. Thank you so much for your work. - 8/29/2020 

We were very pleased with the selection of carpets available at Kaoud, the effort put forth by the staff to review them all, and their taking the time to deliver and stage the three carpets we liked. That made all the difference as the third choice quickly became our first! Good quality and great value - thanks guys! - 9/08/2021 

Fantastic experience with Kaoud's!
Worked with Fred Kaoud directly to repair and re-size a few extra Tibetan large rugs. Fred not only helped me personally but also recommended superior alternatives at a lower cost. What more could I ask for? All in all, fantastic professionalism, responsiveness, integrity, and quality work.
Many thanks. - 1/19/2021 

We needed solutions for our home after my wife fell on our dangerously beautiful hardwood floors resulting in a serious broken leg. Fred helped us select a number of beautiful area rugs and some custom designed solutions for stairs and walkways that now provide safe but beautiful floors that accent our hardwood. He brought several choices out to our home so we could see what they looked like in our home and was patient as we tried a couple times before settling on what worked best for us. The installation was professional as they consulted with us and advised us on several decisions that needed to be made to ensure a quality result that suited the limitations of some of the spaces.
This is the second time we have dealt with Kaoud in 3 years. The previous carpets we bought still look brand new ( compared to one very expensive dining room carpet we bought from another design store that is not holding up well)
For quality, selection, service and professional installation we would not use anyone else. - 7/25/2019 

Very nice people to do business with..I had my area rugs cleaned..they are beautiful..thanks ..I would recommend them to friends for sure.. - 12/05/2019 

It's rare now-a-days to get the quality of service and product that you receive from the Kaouds. As soon as you walk into the store, you receive quality service with a smile and most importantly, patience. They are very calm and quite professional. No pressure to buy either.
I just purchased wall-to-wall carpet for our family room. I assumed that they only sold orientals, but I was wrong. My friend had told me to go see what they had. She was also looking for broadloam for a staging job she was doing in Weston and was quite happy with what she found. I had purchased an oriental rug from them years ago and was quite happy then. So I decided to go there to see their selection. I was pleasantly surprised with their vast selection of sisals and jutes! I wanted a modern contemporary look and they had it all. Joanne Kaoud even offered to come to my home with a variety of samples. She came with an arm full of choices, with a big smile on her face, so I could see them in the room. We even had coffee together. Those little things mean a lot! I'm from Minneapolis and out East you don't always get the quality service that I received from the Kaouds. The carpet looks fabulous! Better that I ever expected! Plus with the scrap, Fred Kaoud suggested that they bind the edges and now I have an extra rug in the parlor!
You'll be happy that you used Kaouds! We are! - 6/28/2015 

Extremely professional and helpful answering questions. The staff are friendly and go over board to help. My 80 year old oriental rug looks terrific. They are extremely patient. I Highly recommend their cleaning services. Thank you Fred! ***** - 3/04/2024 

Best service and selection! - 12/06/2013 

Kaoud (and Fred specifically) was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and excellent customer service, not to mention they did a great job cleaning our rug. I felt Fred went above and beyond, even sending us photo updates throughout the cleaning process. Our rug, which was very overdue for a cleaning, is noticeably more vibrant and softer. We felt very safe having our rug cleaned during the COVID crisis, Kaoud took extra precautions and still turned our rug around very quickly. Prices were in line with industry standard. Kaoud will be our go-to shop for oriental rug cleaning in the future and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone. - 6/02/2020 

I don't usually write reviews but wanted to let you all know that Joanne and Fred are awesome. They met us at the property to take measurements, worked with us to find something that matched our style and budget, and coordinated the entire installation and clean up. Very seamless and stress-free. I highly recommend you get in touch with Kaoud's if you are in the market for new carpets or rugs. - 8/20/2020 

Kaoud Carpets & Rugs was a perfect place to take my 70 year old oriental rug. The care they gave it was so wonderful. Their high-level of commitment to excellence was everything I was hoping for and more. My rug is sparkling clean with colors so vibrant, all thanks to the care they gave it. I recommend them highly. - 2/06/2020 

Fred was incredibly knowledgeable and really helped us narrow down the style we were looking for. I would recommend checking out Kauod’s for your area rug needs. - 7/31/2020 

Kaoud did an amazing job on our rugs. The rugs were very soiled but Kaoud washed them repeatedly over several weeks and when they were returned they looked, and felt like they have never been used. There were no odors of any sort either. Just fresh clean rugs. Excellent service. - 8/29/2020 

Courteous, informative, efficient transaction. Shows the experience level Fred and his installer, Gus, possess. Having done a renovation that lasted over a year, Kaoud Carpet and Rugs was the most pleasant vendor to do business with. - 11/11/2019 

Kaoud Carpets and Rugs did an absolutely phenomenal job cleaning and restoring a hand-knit wool rug that I had shipped from AZ. It was beyond dirty, full of dust. I am sure it hadn't been cleaned in years (if ever!). When they delivered it to my home, it looked like a brand-new rug. The colors were vivid, and it feels soft under foot. I am so thrilled they took such wonderful care of this rug that is precious to me because it was my parents'. I would not trust anyone else with my rugs. Whether you have modest rugs or expensive heirlooms, Kaoud Carpets will handle them with care and return them to you spotlessly clean. This is a local family business with the highest standards of customer service. I highly recommend using Kaoud Carpets and Rugs for all of your flooring/carpet/rug needs. - 12/21/2022 

A leaking water pipe caused considerable damage to carpeting in our basement family room. Total replacement of carpeting and padding was needed. We shopped several carpeting stores then found desirable products at Kaoud Rugs in West Hartford. The sales person, Christina L********, came to our home , measured all open areas, closets and stairs. The price was acceptable. When installation occurred, I was impressed at the concern for detail and precision performed by the crew. I cannot find a flaw at the stairs, around lolly columns, at doorways or closet entries. They did a very good installation. Maurice Kaoud helped finalize communication with our insurance. We are pleased with all interactions with Kaoud Rugs of West Hartford. - 12/10/2021 

Kaoud Carpets & Rugs in Wilton is a gem of a store. Fred Kaoud and his staff are helpful without being overbearing. They are focused on customer satisfaction. Their pricing is competitive with any of the large retailers. I was able to get a high end product at a price I could afford. Besides stocking an impressive selection of oriental carpets, they offer an extensive variety of broadloom carpets as well as hardwoods, laminates and other flooring - something I did not realize until I got there. I am happy to have discovered Kaoud in Wilton because now I know it is the only place I need to go for carpeting or flooring. Luckily for me it’s located nearby my home, but it’s worth the trip from outside the immediate area. - 2/21/2019 

A precious resource for carpet lovers! Deep knowledge, superb service. I learn every time I go to Kaoud’s, and my home is more beautful thanks to them. - 4/28/2019

We went to Kaoud to purchase carpeting based on reviews we saw here in Google. We were not disappointed. Service in the store and in our home was excellent. Fred was extremely responsive and thorough in addressing all of our questions, keeping us up-to-date on delivery times, and ensuring installation as quickly as possible. Candido’s installation was highly professional, on time as promised, and expertly performed. We were extremely pleased with the service we received from start to finish, and would highly recommend Kaoud to anyone interested in purchasing floor covering. - 10/20/2021 

I ordered several rugs from Fred Kaoud Carpets & Rugs, and my experience was superb! Fred Kaoud, Jr. was very attentive to my specific needs, first in choosing and ordering beautiful natural rugs for my luxury rental property. Per my rental contract, I had to furnish the rugs by August 1st. However, the rugs which I ordered could only be delivered by the end of August. To resolve this problem, Fred Jr. actually created temporary loaner rugs according to the sizes of my ordered rugs, and delivered these loaner rugs to my property by August 1st, free of charge! When the rugs I ordered came in, he replaced the loaner rugs by these rugs, again free of charge! It is difficult to find such high level of personalized service anywhere! Also, Fred Jr. is a wonderful, warm and positive person, and is a pleasure to deal with! I highly recommend Fred Kaoud Carpets & Rugs! - 10/10/2020 

Kaoud Carpets and Rugs provided exceptional service regarding the cleaning and moth proofing of 16 of my heirloom Persian rugs--starting with the phone call I had with Fred Kaoud, Jr. Mr. Kaoud arrived at our home the very next day to personally inspect the carpets. He patiently explained the problems with each one, the process by which his firm cleans and moths proofs. He also provided a detailed account of each rug, its age and origin. Six weeks later the rugs returned home----now silky, exquisitely clean, the colors vibrant. They have never looked this good. His professional team brought the rugs in and expertly placed them around the house, explaining why some rugs should be placed in the same room with another rug, due to the common origin and related designs. Fred and his team were a delight to work with. We can't say enough about Kaoud Carpets and Rugs-For anyone who treasures their rugs as heirloom quality art, Kaoud is the only place to go. - 5/05/2019 

We lived in Connecticut and appreciated the longevity of this local family business and the great customer service! Around since 1954, they are doing things right for the customer!
We built our retirement home in North Carolina, I made sure that I purchased my rugs from Kaoud Carpets & Rugs! Fred Kaoud Jr has an amazing eye for color selections and he can recommendation rugs based on your style. He has been spot on with our selections. Whether you are looking for a runner, carpet for stairs, or showcase pieces for your living areas their selections are amazing! We even got our outdoor rugs for our screened porch. Every year when we travel back up to CT, we make a point of stopping by the Wilton store to check out the inventory and to catch up with the Kaouds! I love when I can ship my rugs back to NC and they are wrapped professionally. Love their rug pads too! Time to change our colors! See you soon! - 9/23/2015 

Extremely helpful, knowledgeable and accommodating. They offer a wide range of product from modern to traditional, area rugs to wall to wall. I must see showroom if you’re in the market for new carpets. Prices ranges for everyone - 2/23/2019
