Not sleek

Would Not Recommend

I considered this tile for a kid's bath, but the finish is very flat and looks dusty.

Mid century tile

Would Recommend

This tile was perfect for redoing our 1965 hallway bathroom. I wanted to stick to the originality of the home. My husband bought a tile saw to cut all the flooring. Make sure the blade doesn’t get too dull to avoid bad cuts.

Great budget tile.

Would Recommend

Love the look. It’s not aged, but the white isn’t stark white. A nice worn look. The cost of this product compared to similar ones is what drew me to it. It’s great looking.

I was so excited to use these in a bathroom remodel. Very glad we looked at them in store first. The print quality of the design didn't live up to expectations so we went another direction. Bummer.

Adds character to our laundry room

Would Recommend

I absolutely love this tile, it has so much character, been admiring it for a few years. I finally have the perfect project for these tiles. I’m retiling my laundry room, the tile is the perfect coordinate to the hard wood floor we installed on our kitchen.
