ACC worked good for me. Buy them from Willcox for the best price.

ACC carpet is fine-if they get it right the first time. Their customer service leaves a lot to be desired. I would buy Al Knoch.

I think all the carpet is made by one place so it really doesn't matter who you buy from--it's the same although the service and reputation of the company may be very different---if something is wrong with the carpet. I got mine from ACC.

Not quite true. Most made is by ACC, however Al Knoch makes their own also Romero Engineering or something like that used to. Most of the catalogs sell ACC and have it shipped from them to you. I once saw a post on the NCRS site that Al Knoch was closer to stock. Al Knoch has much better customer relations people than ACC.

I had all these companies send me samples. None of them had my exact color --1971 dark green. I picked ACC because they were the closest. Al Knock didn't even carry any green--much more restricted on colors--carries only the popular ones.
