I have just completed a kitchen job for a mate and he bought cheap (35p
each) tiles. They were OK but the lack of quality certainly shows when
compared to more expensive tiles. I found a lack of glaze on the corners was
a big problem in that the raw tile showed through on the edges of the grout
requiring double grouting and a load of messing about. They were quite
square and consistent though although there was a very slight difference in
size (.2mm) between different coloured tiles.

Wondering aloud..... (great Jethro Tull song)

Cheapo boxes of wall tiles - can anyone advise whether these are
really square and consistent?

Just finished tiling a bathroom and the grout lines aren't perfect.
Too my time lining up the tiles etc, and the only thing I can think of
is that these cheapo boxes of tiles aren't accurately sized.

I never want to do a tiling job again.....
