We used Empire (the ones that come the next day to install) and have no complaints.

I just bought carpet from G.Fried over the weekend...they were much more affordable than empire for us.

I forgot to say that you should get estimates from other places before you call Empire. We found that you could negotiate with them, where other stores weren't willing to do that.

We got prices from Pat's (in Bay Shore), Home Depot and Empire and went with Empire. We were very happy with the service and carpets.

We used empire and were NOT happy. They basically charge you for 1.3 feet for every 1 foot you need and we wound up with an insane amount of carpet left over that we paid for and for the installation of!
