Proceed with Caution
1) I recommend installing this on the diagonal. Makes a huge difference & the impact to the overage is minimal. 2) make sure the the sub floor is level. 3) have it installed by someone who's used to mosaic tile & experienced in natural tile. 4) I recommend sealing the tile before grouting.

    Beautiful tile for the money
    We installed this tile in our guest bathroom and it really elevates the look to a whole new level. Classic, yet modern at the same time. The tile itself is a bit more grey than the picture shows, with that characteristic variance in shades from white to grey that is so typical of marble. It really is beautiful and people are quite surprised by how little we paid for this flooring.

    More beautiful installed
    Living in a farm house, my wife and I were having a difficult time finding the look we wanted for our new bathroom floor. When we saw this flooring in your New Albany, In. Store. We were immediately sold

    Nice looking product
    I installed this tile in my laundry room. It was my first time tiling, so I learned a lot! The end product looks really good--a classic and cheerful look. I went back and forth trying to decide between sanded and nonsanded grout. I ended up using sanded with latex additive due to the 1/8" gaps between the tiles and because I was worried about strength (it's a high vibration area due to our enthusiastic front-loading washing machine). I didn't notice any problems with the sanded grout scratching the finish (it's a honed rather than highly polished finish). This tile was also easy to cut using a wet saw, which I had never used before. Two things to note about appearance--this stone is on the soft side, so you may notice some "natural" looking edges on the tiles. Also, some of the tiles have shades of yellow and blue. I really like this look, but be prepared for the color not to be totally uniform.

    Stunningly beautiful; high quality product!
    Initially I was worried that ordering tile online might result in a disappointment; but I was thrilled when I opened the box to see how beautiful the tile was. The color and workmanship was just as described online. My installer was also pleased at the ease of installation and the quality.

    Expensive, needs more grout than you can imagine, but beautiful
    This is absolutely beautiful marble. Please be aware, however, that it needs twice as much grout (we used epoxy) as you think you will need. In fact, take the original estimate, double it and add another 20%. :-) It is very expensive compared with the marble for the walls but it is worth it. Very happy.

    Love It!
    We originally planned on buying the marble black and white weave pattern that Home Depot carries, but for one-third less, the octagon design was the practical choice... Our house was built in the 1950s and it is a classic design that will never look outdated. We are very happy with it! Also, we used charcoal grout which never looks dirty! We've received many compliments on this choice of tile.

    Really looks great as a black splash in the kitchen!!!
    Very attractive marble and installed pretty quick and easy. Goes well with the ubatuba granite. Can't say anything negative. Used this particular tile in the bathroom and kitchen and looked GREAT!

    Beautiful Tile
    We purchased this tile for our guest bath. It is beautiful! We origianal found it in a tile store for a much higher price, then found it on-line at the Home Depot and ordered it and was very pleasantly surprised how beautifully it turned out.
