We got this as a sample to check color and style for a kitchen/bath/bedroom project. Its a nice thick tile with straight, non-beveled edges. Our contractor was impressed with its thickness. Sadly, I'm not sure we'll actually use it, as it doesn't match the other flooring in our home as well as another one we've tried. My rating is based entirely on my impression of a sample piece of the tile, not on installing and using it.
