This subway tile looks realistic and is fairly easy to apply. We used it as a backsplash in our bathroom and it looks beautiful. My only complaint is that it began to unravel after a couple of months. We reapplied the portion that unraveled and sealed the entire application with a waterproof sealant and that seemed to fix the problem. I think the steam from the shower was the culprit. Other than that, the tile looks beautiful.
