Atiyeh Bros

Years ago I bought a beautiful area rug at Atiyeh on Division St.
Tim helped us pick out the rug. We still see him there when we take our rug in to be cleaned.
It should have been a no-​brainer for us to just go and buy carpet from Atiyeh when we decided to carpet the upstairs, but instead we shopped around. Although we went to several carpet retailers, we went back to Atiyeh (in Tigard) for several reasons. First of all, they really know the products. Our salesman, Rami, has been with Atiyeh for 20 years. That says something about him and about the company. A company that keeps employees that long must be treating them right. An employee who has been with a company for 20 years knows the products.
For some reason I assumed that Atiyeh was more upscale than other places and would therefore be more expensive. That wasn’t the case at all. In fact their prices were lower. They also didn’t seem intent on steering us towards any particular product, and were able to tell us the pros and cons of various carpet types.
Finally, the installation guy, Gil, was also a true professional. I got the sense that he had also been doing this for a long time. The carpet looks beautiful. Rami, our salesman, stopped by the day after the job was complete to see that everything was O.K. I will definitely go back to Atiyeh next time I need to buy any floor coverings.
The only thing I might suggest is that they have more information available on carpet components such as glues, fibers, and flame retardants for people who are interested in buying the greenest product available. We ended up buying 100% wool, but there may have been other good alternatives.
