Carpet underlay

Question

Hello,

What underlay is good/the best for bedroom provided it is wood floorboards floor, carpet is 12.5mm thick and dense (it has already have that soft and spongy feeling)? Current gap between the floorboards and the door bottom part is about 22mm. There will be some quite heavy furniture (up to 120kg) on small legs, so would be nice to avoid permanent furniture indentation marks, if possible.

Thanks!

It's not so much about the thickness of the underlay it's more about the density. I'd go for something like Cloud 9 Charleston or Connoisseur in 10mm thickness

The better the underlay the better the carpet will feel. Cheaper carpets with good underlay feel better than expensive carpet with poor or no underlay

Cloud 9 is my personal choice as it's not to thick or thin and it's a strong comfortable composition, it's around £60 online, don't buy from a carpet shop as they make over 200%profit per roll and it's not even the good stuff and it'll cost just as much if not more than the carpet. There is cumulus underlay which is by the same company and it's slightly thicker which I would use in the main room of the house only for added comfort.

Cloud 9 is a quality underlay that is popular with carpet fitters. Indents  from furniture is hard to avoid unless you go for a stiff carpet.

Indents can be lifted by wetting the area and ironing through a towel…if at any point the furniture is removed

Hope this helps

there is only one option, it's just to cut in the places where the legs will be and when you need to move out with glue
