          Is this tile appropriate for a shower floor? Or would it be too slippery?
          ByDec 21, 2021
          2 Answers | 
          Answer This Question

          Hi! Our Metro Rhombus Glossy White is suitable for shower floor installations as it has a glazed finish that will not absorb water and the grout lines will also contribute to overall slip resistance. We encourage you to order a sample of this product to determine whether if it suits your preferences. If you have any further questions, please give us a call at (800)-963-7652.

            I actually have it in my shower floor. When it is wet it is fine but with bunch of soap on it, it can get a bit slippery. I think any tile would. I love it!

                  Really pleased with this tile but the installer said it is a difficult pattern to work with, so just a heads up to other installers.

                  Beautiful
                  Very nice finish for the price. Not matte, more of a satin finish. Delivered tiles were too damaged, picking them up at the store was better. Spacing not exact, dark grout helped.

                    I went with the dark matte gray for our kitchen backsplash. It turned out better than I imagined! I love it!

                      Loved these tiles! They were perfect finish for our accent wall for a kitchenette in our casita. Really created a wow factor! It’s nice that they come on a mesh sheet bc it can be a little difficult when tiling to get the pattern right- but well worth the effort! Fabulous value!

                        Great for blending!
                        Two years after using this tile in white for my kitchen backsplash, I bought a new low profile microwave and had to extend the backsplash above the range. I bought this grey color and created a design by blending it with some leftover white. I think it was a good solution!

                          This tile is exactly what i was looking for so i was excited fo find it in sheets! Grouting it is a little more strenous becuase you are doing it in all directions. Our kitchen is dark so im happy with the glossy finish. We flipped the sheet about 45 degrees from what the stock photo shows, very pleased with this product!
