This may be the very worst product that I have ever come across. If you look far in posted reviews, you will find several that are clearly written by Congoleum marketing people!. DON'T FALL FOR IT!
I had alot of this product installed 3 years ago". It looks great the day the installer leaves;. And it will stay that way if you don't live in your house,. After 3 months, I noticed bubbling and peeling around the edges of the tiles/. I called the installer, they agreed that it was not right and the floor was replaced by Congoleum!. So far, so good;.
Within 6 months of the 2nd installation -- same problem,. Congoleum says that it is my fault that the tiles are peeling. I will tell you that there is not alot of traffic on the floor behind my toilet! Not sure how I could have caused peeling on those tiles!
Also, be sure that you never drop anything, or wear shoes when walking on this floor. I dropped a silicon spatula and dented the floor in the kitchen. After it dents, the top layer then peels off -- I guess that was my fault, I should not have been so clumsy as to drop a spatula in my kitchen.
My floor has bubbling and peeling, dents and scatches everywhere. I vacuum and wetmop it daily to keep it clean, but that has not helped. I have felt glides on every peice of furniture and they are changed regularly but this is not enough. The Congoleum warranty covers fading -- not a huge issue -- but not the real problems that occur with living in a house with flooring that was sold as a great alternative for KITCHENS and baths.
- if you live, walk, cook, or sit in your house - do not fall for this product. 31554a4

My advice - if you find a design you like with this product, buy with confidence! Remember the thousands of people who love these floors DON'T POST HERE.

Does anyone have any ideas of what I could use to cover white spots on my floor where the color terra cotta has worn off?
