      I'm using this on the floor and niche in our shower. I'm also using the MSI Pearla Perala subway on upper walls in the shower and backsplash behind the sink/vanity. What color grout would you recommend to compliment both? I'm leaning away from white.

                            Beautiful Tile!
                            I bought the glossy MSI Retro Gray Herringbone tile to use as my kitchen backsplash from the Home Depot store in Chesapeake, Virginia, where I also bought the Permablend Non-Sanded Grout in the Arctic White Color to use with it. I had a professional contractor install the tile two days ago, and I couldn’t be happier with the results — it’s beautiful! I had hesitated to buy this tile because of previous reviews that stated the boxes of tile had mis-matched dye lots and/or that the tiles were difficult to cut and work with. My contractor used a wet tile saw to cut the tiles and had no problems whatsoever in cutting and/or installing them. I am very happy with my new kitchen backsplash, and so I can honestly say that my experience with this product has been 100% positive. D. Baker

                                The tile was reasonable. At this price point, be prepared. The tile was easy to cut if you have the proper wet saw for this type of tile. Based on my analysis this tile needed a professional person to install. It gave me the look that I was going for.

                                  Inconsistent Colors WITHIN Individual Sheets
                                  Where to begin. I ignored other reviews stating inconsistencies in color because I don't think anyone explained what's going on with these tiles. Yes, the color is a blue-ish gray, but that't not the real problem. From one box of tiles, all of the sheets appeared to be the same color. I thought I was a lucky consumer. By the time the tiles were cut, laid out, and grouted, the "inconsistencies in color" now became extremely obvious. Within some sheets, you can find two to three different hues, some sheets are all uniform and one of those hues, other sheets are uniform to a different hue. It's an absolute nightmare (both with regards to time and money) that these inconsistencies are only extremely obvious once laid and grouted. However, if you study the tile REALLY closely, you can see the inconsistencies before you tile. Don't overlook this review and say, "it must have been an issue with the sealer this person used"--the inconsistencies are present before and after tiling. I simply did not study hard enough before installing. BUYER BEWARE!
