Look beautiful
I bought this smart tile a month ago, for the backslash of my kitchen.
I really love how it look now that it is done. I was a little unsure when I one finished one row. It looks a lot better when you cover a space as appose to just one row.
The reason I did not give this product 5 stars was because the grout on the edges of the product were not always even, some pieces had wider excess grout which required me to cut the product down.
As well it would have been nice to have a instellation video just for this pattern, because the hexagon do not have straight sides to match up. Thus it takes a lot longer to install this pattern, as well as a lot more planing.

Perfect coverup
Moved into an apartment with a hideous brown kitchen backsplash a month ago and immediately started looking for a solution, and found these! Ordered using the calculator on the website (it was a quite generous amount which meant I didn't have to panic about running out), the shipping was quite fast and the installation-once you figure out where to start and which direction to work, is super easy. It took me an afternoon for the whole kitchen. It's amazing how much brighter it looks! While its not as nice a finish texturally as real tile, for $150 and an afternoon, you can't ask for a much better or easier fix for ugly rental tile. I am super pleased I did this!

perfect for rv
I installed this in our RV around the sink as it was painted wood and I was always concerned about water damage. Its been in 2.5 years (installed 7/2013), standing up to use & temperature variation (-10 F - 105 + F as van parked outside). No peeling, yellowing or anything! Looks as good as the day I put it in. I did seal the bottom between the tile and the counter with clear silicone to prevent water seepage. It is lightweight and flexible. Flexibility is important in a 4x4 RV van, didn't want "tile" as it would pop off and add weight.
I misplaced my extra sheet and finally found it, along with the info to this web site so now I'm posting this review.

A NEAT WAY TO FINISH OFF YOUR SMART TILE !
I chose the dark grey as it seemed to be the right choice to go with the white tile.
I installed the edging before installing the last row of tile, using a pencil line to ensure straightness. It is important to make extremely precise measurements so the last tile fits snugly against the edging. If you try to hurry these last steps, you will end up with a sloppy looking job.
One thing I noticed with these strips is that the adhesive needs to have pressure applied after placing to ensure good adhesion. This was never a problem with the tile.

Love this product and this company
I bought the smart tiles and trim for my kitchen and it turned out FANTASTIC. It was so easy to install and I did not need to bother my husband with another one of "my projects". I get so many compliments when people see it. I am now working on the bathroom with another color and again, great results. This is a great company to do business with.....there was an error in one of the items shipped and the minute I contacted them, it was immediately corrected and the person I talked with was so apologetic. A+++++customer service! I hope that sometime in the future there are more color options available in the trim, but for now, I couldn't be happier. Thanks!

I had only compliments and it solved my problem
We used these tiles in my powder room and I’m pretty happy with the result. I wanted tiles on the half wall behind my toilet, but there was not enough space between my toilet and the wall. Smart Tiles are so thin, it was the only solution! Also used as a back and side splash, I feel these will be much easier to clean than real stones and porous grout.
So why not 5 stars? Well, the shade was off on some tiles, giving a pinkish tint rather than the neutral tone most of them had. Since they are made in Quebec, not China, I would have expected better quality control at manufacturing time. We had ordered too many tiles and will be returning the pinkish ones that were not installed.

Peel and stick tile edging
not sure if I'd need this as I was doing 3 bathrooms and 3 kitchens, but I bought it just incase a finishing edge was needed. Ends up the tile look fine without, but once I put the finishing edge on I was happy I did. I bought enough to put along ceiling line, but didn't use it as it would emphasize the wonkiness of the ceiling. Just as a close at the edge of the shower and kitchen counter ends was perfect. Would recommend for finishing use. If doing just a small backsplash to a bathroom or kitchen that doesn't go all the way up the wall I'd highly recommend to use on sides and tops (much more professional finish).

love this product
My husband installed these - at first he was very skeptical but we are both so impressed with the finished product! We wanted to give our kitchen a "mini makeover" and this did the trick - it makes our kitchen look bigger & brighter! So happy to be able to buy a Canadian-made product, very happy to support this Quebec-based company! This product ROCKS! FYI we purchased these in-store at our local Kent store; originally I thought I'd have to order them online from Home Depot so I ordered a sample first (then I found them at Kent, so I could have saved the $5 for the sample ... oh well). When the work was finished my previously skeptical husband said "good find, honey!". :-)

I would like to use this for a 37 inc backsplash. Is there a way I can make this work without have a line in the middle?
Hello Smart tiles models may have diffrent dimenions ex Zellige Temera model is 9x9inches. The appilcation is one tile at a time would complete the 37 in space.

Hello. I’m thinking to cover our current hearth (thin black marble slab), but am worried about the robot vacuum on the smart tile, particularly the edges?
Unfortunately Smart Tiles are not designed to be installed on the floors.
The vinyl resin that the tiles are made of will be damaged by constantly walking on them.
Smart Tiles are designed for kitchen or bathroom backsplashes or to do decorative sections on a wall.

Hello, can these tiles be used to cover an entire wall and not just be used as a backsplash? Also, do they leave any damage to the walls if they fall off or are peeled off?
Hello! Thank you for your question! Yes they can be used to cover a whole wall. They are easy to remove with little to no damage, depending on the surface they were installed on. (On painted dry walls, removal of The Smart Tiles can peel off paint spots.) To make it easy, use a blow dryer to warm up each tile to soften the adhesive and pull softly starting with the corners. Use a cleaning product to wash the wall and remove any excess glue left by the Smart Tiles. -Ashley

Hi - I would like to know if these tiles would be ok in an RV shower stall?
Hello,
We do not recommend installing Smart Tiles in your shower since they will be in direct contact with water. However, Smart Tiles are resistant to bathroom's humidity so you can install them anywhere they will not be touched by water. If you install them above the shower wall, and the wall is painted with gypsum, make sure that the surface is completely dry and not damp. Else, the tiles will not stick to the wall.

How do you cut this style?? I tried using a box cutter and it destroyed an entire sheet...
Hello, Thank you for reaching out! A box cutter is the best tool for cutting The Smart Tiles. Make sure the box cutter is sharp, install yourself on a cutting mat to cut them and use a ruler with a cork backing to make sure nothing moves while cutting. You can also use scissors but box cutter is preferable. Do not hesitate for more information. You can also view our installation videos at the end of this page: https://www.thesmarttiles.com/en_us/installation

Can these be used on vinyl flooring? trying to update my kitchen as I am renting.
Hello, Smart Tiles have been designed to be used as a decorative wall backsplash only, and not to be used on working surfaces such as counter and floors. Doing so will easily damage the tile.
