Customer Reviews for Islander Black 12 in. x 12 in. Natural Pebble Stone Floor and Wall Tile

I am in the process of updating a very 80s beige tile bathroom. Functional, just ugly, but didn’t want the expense of a demo. I chose this for the shower floor, and what a difference it makes! Easy to lay down; like another reviewer, I found it difficult to not show the grid lines between the tiles, and I found that the pebbles themselves were too large to fit in between in most instances, but after grouting it’s much less obvious. It took a lot more grout than planned, so glad I had gotten extra (I used a matching charcoal grout and it looks amazing). I’m not a very experienced tiler, but this took me about 5 hours total over 2 days (letting the thinset dry for 24 hours). I’m so pleased with the results, and pretty proud of my DIY skills to boot. This tile is gorgeous, and exactly what I was looking for.

Nice shower floor tile, but just know it loses its nice black color shortly after using and is more grey stones. Not a problem with functionality but I liked the black shiny stone that complimented my black glass wall tile.

I'm fairly satisfied with the quality of the stones. They were securely attached to the mesh backing and spaced nicely. A charcoal colored grout worked well with the stones. It's going to look good once I place the wood stove on the hearth. My only problem was getting the sheets of the stones to come close enough to each other to prevent a visible line where the sheets join. I tried and tried but sill ended up with a slight visible spacing between the sheets of stones. The grout helped in bringing it all together.

Great product, works well and looks awesome.

Product exceeding expectations

Just wish they would fit together a little better, but that's natural stone...

The color is what we wanted but we have not installed it yet.

The tiles did not fit together at all. I knew that I would have to pull some pebbles off and place them individually but with these tiles I had to set the tiles about 1.5 inches apart and fill in around each tile.

Good looking as floor in our new shower

Easy to install and looks great when completed. A little tough grouting however.

Love the tile! Looks great. I wish it would have been available in the store, but delivery was fairly quick.
