I want to put vinyl plank in kitchen area, and want to run it out into open floor plan into living room and require area rugs. 

If you shampoo your carpets, forget about buying the high dollar Bissel and Rug Doctor carpet shampoo mixes. 

I believe this guy just bit of more then he could chew and now that the rug was pulled from under him he wants money.Thank you all I’m advance I appreciate any insight into this matter.

It's like sweeping dirt under the rug and acting like the floor is clean.

I spent $1000 to fully furnish it (Before Furnishing, After Furnishing) — $235 on big furniture items (3 beds, 3 mattresses, desk, coffee table, couch, secretary desk, etc.) and $800 on the smaller items (duvet, duvet covers, pillows, lamps, dishes, rugs, coffee maker, etc.).

If she wants carpets the family can buy area rugs. 

(without knowing the exiting color of this rug) why not just have the rug well cleaned by a reputable and known rug-cleaning company?  

I feel like they are just sweeping the issue under the rug and hoping people don't bring it up.  

I have seen people put area rugs over carpet.

I ran it through the whole house (and put in rugs) and am very happy with the results.
