W/W stands for Wall-to-wall carpeting, a classified ad abbreviation.
Indicates carpeting that covers a room's entire floor and is fixed at the edges, in property listings. It is common in older listings and bedrooms.
Example: Cozy 1BR with W/W carpet, a new kitchen and an assigned parking space.
Usage notes
Wall-to-wall carpet was fashionable in mid-20th-century American homes, and many buyers now pull it up to reveal hardwood beneath. Landlords may charge cleaning fees for carpet stains at move-out. British listings more often say "fitted carpets."
