What Customers Are Saying
The Mapei Keracolor sanded grout has received mixed reviews. Many customers found it easy to mix, apply, and clean up, with the color matching the tile well. However, a significant number reported the grout drying to a much lighter color than expected, sometimes even turning nearly white. This color inconsistency was a major issue for many. Some also noted the grout can be difficult to work with if not mixed properly. Overall, the product seems to work well for some but has significant quality control problems, especially around color accuracy.

Don’t buy, not black!!!!! Super light white look when dry. Needed to have tile regrouted the very next day.
Bathroom and shower remodel
This is the best grout for doing a shower remodel.
Quality sanded grout
Easy mix, easy cleanup.
Grout
If you have light and dark areas it is not the fault of the product. the light areas are lack of water in the grout when spreading it. all you have to do is wet the light areas with a little white vinegar and take a stiff brush and gently brush off the top layer of sandy grout. then rinse of the vinegar and it will dry the darker color you are looking for.

Absolute crap
I've tiled many many times and this is the worst grout I've ever used by far. It's nearly impossible to clean up
