If you slip, a grout line only 1/8" deep is going to stop you. I would err on the side of caution since I have slipped on matte porcelain and broken my leg in 7 pieces.

😱

@Raimondi Thanks. I had looked for that and could not find it on the retailer website. It is an MSI product so I contacted them and they are supposed to be emailing me a spec sheet.

@BeverlyFLADeziner oh my goodness! That is terrible. I hope you healed well.

Go for non-slip tiles. Beverly just made the most compelling argument.

Glad you’re better @BeverlyFLDeziner! Sounds like a it was a terrible, terrible fall.

I’m curious… did you end up going with those 2x2 tiles? They sound like what I’m looking at for our shower floor. MSI white 2x2 hexagon. They’re not polished, but not grainy (can’t think of a better word…) like some floor tiles.

We are in midst of planning for 4 showers in a new build and I am very focused on the tile floors not being slippery-- many years ago, one of my kids slipped on regular ceramic tile and slammed her foot into the wall, breaking it. I keep hearing that the grout lines will solve the risk (designer likes polished carrera marble) but I have been looking at honed but not polished tiles for that reason.

And people chide me for choosing half-cut pebbles because it will be hard to clean. Yeah, no-slip is pretty important. I'm also now considering getting all the plastic grocery bags out of the house.

You still have plastic grocery bags??!!! They don't exist here. Anywhere!!!

Bring your tote, or settle for brown paper and pay.

A nice big tote is better by far.

Yeah, we still have plastic grocery bags in the house from before the pandemic. Hubby is in charge of shopping and has it all delivered now. But we keep things...bad habit.

I did not choose these 2x2 hexagons. They just seemed way too slippery without grout. I got the sample wet and it was super slippery (no grout). Who knows...it may have been fine grouted. My installer also recommended I look for something different.
