we have a rug, well mom does, it was worth 1000s, and i used the metal beater on the vacuum and put it all the way down to 2, and it ruined, well i mean not ruin but i looks like its been beaten so hard, and i can't reverse it. Metal beater i thought would dig deep, which it did but it damaged the bottom of the rug. Nowo it looks shaggy. I hate it, the carpet feels fluffy after the metal beater, but the rug took an impact and no reverse to restore it. I am not happy....

Aw. I'm sorry rj. You were trying to help. Sometimes things turn out sh*tty, despite our very best of intentions. Sucks.
Maybe it will settle with time? What if you stomp on it / trample it a bit??

beating it fluffed it up??
can you stomp it down??? That's what I mean. Can you... Turn it over and hit it back down. Stompity stomp stomp... Put concrete blocks on it... Something... I don't know...
I was concerned about it ripping loop pile wool apart...
But you were trying to help it be better, I understand.
