Beautiful Tile
We used this for our walk in shower floor, easy install and one of the only true black colored hex tiles we could find.

Beautiful Glossy Shiny White
Remodel of bathroom in 100 year old house and wanting to update while retain a retro look in a way. I chose to pair this glossy, shiny white hex tile with the same brand of tile in marine color and blended the two to make an updated and interesting look which I love. The sheets were easy to install and Mapei grout was used in Silver color and I just love the result. Used a bullnose schluter end piece to finish the wall edges and will pair with oil rubbed bronze fixtures.

Great tile. Come in sheets, easy to lay. A little difficult to match up- takes time, though when done right looks great. Love the solid Matt black.

I had an absolute horrible experience with this tile. For a tile of this price, color consistency should be much better since you can't really mix up these small pieces up like you can larger tiles. I used it to fix and aging shower tile floor. But after it was all installed and grouted, I noticed some sections where lighter than others! Apparently I got some older stock mixed with newer stock.
I can sum this up as a rookie mistake on my part since you have to be careful with tile, but this is expensive stuff and should have better color quality/consistency. I ended up pulling up sections and replacing them, but it didn't help the color differences in the stock. So all the work I put into this floor and it looks like junk.

Beautiful tile! I was looking for a unique, simple, modern white backsplash for my kitchen update and didn't want the standard subway tile. I'm so happy with the way the 2" hexagon turned out and I love the high gloss. Although it's not a true white, it has a bit of a gray cast during different times of the day depending on the light. It was even more noticeable once the pure white grout was added but it still looks great with the new arctic white quartz countertops.

Nice accent tile for my project
I wanted a retro-style kitchen countertop for my 1925 Craftsman. I found a prototype online that someone else with a vintage house had created. I loved it and copied it. The original artisan used 2-1/2" hex tiles to create a custom pattern in white with black accents, and so did I. The REAL challenge was searching for some retailer who still had V-Cap edger tile available (no longer sold at Home Depot). My way of hacking the grout-getting-dirty issue was to cover the tile with sheets of clear acrylic, held down by clear Gorilla Tape.
My one complaint: why is there an apx $30 difference between a box of the glazed black and the glazed white of the same material? And why can't these be sold in individual sheets so that homeowners don't end up with leftovers.

Great classic looking tile
The tiles look great. Definitely a little harder to cut and install just due to the size/shape of the tiles vs. a solid tile. It gave the look we wanted. You can tell that the bath has been renovated but it still has a very classic style.

Easy to Install, great product.
Product exceeded expectations, was easy to install. I watched a video where you need to make sure between the tile sheets that you have the correct amount of spacing so you don't see a thicker seam. That was easily accomplished with 1/8" spacers. Towards the end of the room, (my fault), the tile did skew a little but it was easily corrected by peeling off the individual tiles and setting the last few in by hand, like a puzzle piece.
I was back and forth on the matte vs the glossy tile as my house was built in 1875 and wanted to be historically correct but....the glossy will do better in the laundry area.
Enclosed pics of floor, gray grout was drying as that's why there is a bit color variation. I assure you, there are no seams and am very happy with it.
As for the edging, the tiles are easily cut on a wet saw. Baseboard will fill in the rest of gap.
