We love these tiles! They give our small balcony a finished appearance that makes us want to spend time on it. The tiles are sturdy and click together easily. We installed the tiles in one afternoon, mostly without tools because they fit our balcony amazingly well. Six tiles across came exactly to the edge of our balcony. A large Dremel circular saw cut the tiles to the needed size on one side of the balcony and to fit around railing posts. The tiles cut nicely without splintering or leaving a ragged raw edge. We've only had the tiles down for about 2 weeks, but so far they are weathering nicely without fading or staining. They seem to do fine when rained on and are comfortable to walk on barefoot. They can be a little difficult to sweep, so don't place planters on them that shed flowers or leaves frequently. That's really the only drawback I can think of. We're very glad we bought them.
