FloorPopsFP2942 Medina Peel & Stick Floor Tiles, Grey

I like to do DIY projects to update my home. But my DREAM designs don't always agree with my set budget. I had a few hundred dollars to make improvements and wanted to get the most bang for my buck. In walks in this product for my bathroom floors.The installation was really straightforward. Peel the paper, stick down to floor. A CLEAN floor! I scrubbed mine a couple times and let it dry for 12 hours. I used good scissors to cut the shapes I needed which I found pretty easy. I did NOT use additional adhesive but I did use waterproof tile caulking in between all the seems since I stuck this on an existing tile floor. I would most likely use some sort of tile caulking no matter the floors surface underneath. Just some extra protectin for the prodcut.The tiles seem rather durable and I love the design. It's a GOOD upgrade that I hope will last for a few years. I do think the product works best with a completely flat floor so keep that in mind.The whole project for this bathroom (Tiles, PVC baseboards, finishing nails, caulking) was less than $50. Not a bad budget for a huge upgrade! I will definitely use these products in the future.

You get what you pay for, plus more! I paid $20 for tiles to redo my little bathroom and I am so impressed. If you have realistic expectations, you will also be very impressed. The pattern is gorgeous, but does not like up perfectly. It’s not noticeable unless you’re looking for imperfections. The tiles seems to stick well but some have migrated over the past month. They were very easy to apply. Very easy to cut with a razor knife, just score and snap. I scrubbed the floor today and the pattern remains. I would definitely purchase again for a small project.

I had been wanting to replace my boring, cracked bathroom tile, but our bathroom needs a lot of work and we are saving up to gut and redo it so I didn’t want to invest a lot of money upgrading it. I saw this tile for around $11 a box and fell in love with the vintage pattern, so I thought I’d give it a try.I was nervous about the installation because the tile in my 93-year-old house Is all uneven and my plan was to put this floor directly over the tile-grout and all! 😬 Also, I had no previous experience laying down floor tile and was missing some equipment (a tile roller, for instance). Despite all this, the floor turned out gorgeous!! I made about a million mistakes when putting down this flooring but thankfully the pattern is very forgiving. I’m glad I chose to work with this product for my first time laying flooring, it’s perfect for a nube like me!I gave this product 4 stars instead of 5 because it isn’t perfect. A few of the tiles came with no adhesive on the back and the pattern doesn’t totally line up (although the manufacturer does explicitly state this). Additionally, there is one tile that keeps lifting in the corner so I have to tack it down with construction adhesive.Here’s the thing though: for $11 a box, it’s not going to have the super strongest glue or the perfect pattern that lines up seamlessly. I am okay with that because, quite honestly, the fixes are really easy and cheap and the floor tile cost me only $45. For that price I am totally fine living with any product imperfections. And as I mentioned, it looks amazing and is a HUGE improvement to what I had before.A few notes: the manufacturer says no grout is needed, but I used grout between the wall and the tile (I left a gap because it says that the tile can expand later on, causing it to buckle if they are laid too tightly against the wall) and lots of caulk around the fixtures. I’m also thinking of putting a layer of polychrylic to protect the floor and seal and adhere it completely.UPDATE: it's been almost three months and the floor is doing well! My only regret is never sealing it with polychrylic like I had originally planned. Because the tiles are textured, they tend to trap dirt and grime, which you CAN see on the white parts of the pattern. Swiffer wet mop wipes work great, but you have to scrub to get the grime out of all the little crevices. Do yourself a favor and don’t be a sucker like me. Seal your floor! It will save you some precious cleaning time.

I decided to cover the existing blah contractor grade linoleum in our laundry room. As with a lot of DIY projects a lot of time involved is the prep - the cleaning, the moving of the items in the room, etc. After I had the room emptied and the floor & baseboards cleaned I decided how I would lay out my new tile design. Directions suggest finding the true center of the room and working out from that point. I decided to go with the visual center of the room as it pertained to my most frequently seen view into the laundry room. I also wanted the tiles to be centered as they were placed in between the washer and dryer. The walls in the laundry room and their corresponding corners are not true square so the existing linoleum with a square pattern (which was not installed on the diagonal) always looked crooked. That was why the third design decision I made was to lay the new tiles on the diagonal. That decision definitely caused the project to take a lot more time as far as all of the varying cuts required along the walls.Once I began the project I realized that at least 50% of the new tiles were dirty. They had a black dust and/or spots that needed to be cleaned. I was very disappointed in that. The next thing I realized was that about half of the tiles were cut incorrectly when they were manufactured. This particular tile design requires its edges to be exactly on center otherwise when you take the next tile that is on center there’s no way to line them up. I wish I would have ordered extra cases of the tiles so that I could have cherry picked the centered and the clean tiles to save myself a lot of headache. I found that using my dollar store breakaway blade box cutter was a very easy way to score the tiles. Then I would bend them and they would break along the scored line very cleanly in most cases. Are used my needle nose pliers a lot for the cuts that were difficult to get a cleanly cut edge. Overall I absolutely love the way it turned out it so does my husband. For the price I don’t think you can beat it the style upgrade, but it was by no means a 30 minute project. LOL it took me DAYS of working a few hours at a time. If I had it to do all over again I would probably spend the $20 on a linoleum tile cutter, the kind that look like a paper cutter with a sliding blade. I think that would have been a big timesaver for me. Oh and you will definitely need some kind of adhesive; the self stick isn’t nearly strong enough.These tiles are a very cool product. I tried a different adhesive tile design to line the bottom of my kitchen cabinets that hold the heavy duty appliances and I loved the result. Have fun with it good luck!
