TAVY 1/16-in Plastic 2-sided Tile Spacer 100 -Pack

Do not use for wall tiles

Bought these for wall tiles and they do not like to stay in place. I'm guessing they work great for the floor but you'd still need to tape the tiles together to keep them from shifting slightly. I'd recommend using one of the locking (twist or wedge) system to ensure that the tiles stay in place with the appropriate spacing.

Time-saver!

With this product, you only have to install them on the corners as you install the ceramic tiles into the thinset; I found this to be MUCH easier than installing small pieces, sometimes more than one, on each side of the tiles. These 2-sided tile spacers also help keep your tiles aligned for a perfect installation, even though I am a Do-it-yourselfer.

Great spacing

I love this style of spacers because they were easy to apply and easy to remove. They provided the perfect spacing that I desired for the tile installation. I would highly recommend this item to anyone who is looking for a good quality tile job installation.

Pulled tiles loose

We used these on our kitchen backsplash of glass mosaic 3/4" tiles that made a 12"x12" squares. When we removed them, they pulled the tiles out almost everywhere we used them. It was frustrating to try to get them to space the tiles when in fact they kept the space, but they also made the tiles they were touching bulge out and lose the adhesion they had with the mortar. It was so bad that we have to rework several tiles that were pulled loose by the spacers; some of which we have to redo altoget...

only choice I had....

We are installing "wood look plank" tiles and I wanted to have the thinnest grout line I could find spacers for... this was my only choice at Lowe's. I had nothing but issues with them. They [spacers] get stuck between the tiles (if any of the thinset squeezed up during placement) and trying to remove them was THE WORST!!! They break constantly leaving little green pieces in your joints that you have to remove before grouting (which proved to be a nightmare). If you want to do a very thin grout ...

Very Versatile

I used them on wall tile. Had to cut them for some of my thick molding tiles so they would stay under the tile.

tough to use on walls

Worked, but took a lot of effort to use on the wall tiles. Was doing subway pattern so used the straight side. the corner side is heavier than the straight side and they fell out if they didn't get pinched in. they did the job of spacing, and my tile looks uniform. I think they'd work just fine on a floor of if you used a regular pattern.

It’s so easy to use compared to the other spacers.

It’s a green color so I don’t mix it up with my other spacers which are a different size.

Much easier than the standard cross shaped type.

I hesitated at first due to the price of these, but recalling the difficulty removing the cross shaped ones last time, I decided to give these a try. I was installing subway tile in a brick pattern this time, and I would have had to cut the others to fit T intersections. These have two sides, one for four way intersections, and one for straight seams. As it turned out, the straight side worked best for my tiles, one on each end and two across the bottom (one against each adjacent tile).Taking th...

Perfect

Just what I need to do floors. Lowe's is the only place that carries these specific ones.
