VersaTex Garage Floor 18 x 18 inch Square Rubber Raised Coin Interlocking Floor Tiles for Home Gym, Garage Flooring, Trade Show Flooring, Basement Tiles, 16 Pack (Black)

I used 5 boxes in a basement workshop / furnace room / storage room. I had 1' square VCP tiles I installed 20+ years ago but the glue became brittle and the tiles were popping up. I liked that material but they run over $2/sft, are brittle, and are a lot of work to install so I looked into many, many flooring options. I went with this product and think it was the right move for my situation:- Interior basement floor, will never see sun and the temp is nearly constant- Can be removed / recut if needed to accommodate a different furnace, water heater, or big shelf that I want to anchor- Looks decent and cleans/sweeps easily- ships/sold by Amazon proper (better faith if returns needed)- made in the USA from recycled rubberI didn't follow the install directions literally, I started at the edge you encounter when walking in since I wanted that to set the line and look for the rest of the layout. Along the front edge I trimmed the little tabs off for a clean look, but didn't along the left and right walls which fit perfectly without any trimming (luck). The back wall and around a few obstacles I had to cut tile - it's only 4mm thick but like cutting through a hockey puck. You can't just score and snap these like drywall, you need to cut through them. I tried utility knife with drywall square (requires perfect alignment from cuts on both sides), angle grinder (just no), and had the best results with small tin snips. The right combination of sharp and leverage (helped to wear gloves).Other random thoughts:I don't think these would be good in a garage that gets sun or used for parking cars, especially where it snows. Water/salt will get under and it's not a quick task to take them apart. Maybe once a year pulling the floor out in big sheets to do a cleaning but seems like a lot of work. My garage is epoxy (Rust Bullet) which is a pain to install but no worries on expansion, water trapped, shoving tiles, etc. These tiles in an interior room or utility shed I think is the ideal use, just have options on how to cut them and be realistic on your expectations with this very low cost flooring solution.

I installed these on my garage floor. They snap together easily although using a rubber mallet makes it even easier. The tiles are dense, hard rubber and appear to be good quality. I originally planned to cut them to fit along the walls using a utility knife. This might have worked but, due to the denseness of the material, probably would have been difficult. I cut them using a portable table saw and, if possible, I recommend you cut them that way. Good clean cuts and much easier.

I used Black and dark gray, floor looks great

My kitchen and bathroom floors are made of marble, which is as slippery as ice when wet. These tiles have lots of traction that even when wet, they are super safe. Nice quality and design.

Protects shed floor, non slip surface and super easy to install.

Easy to clean and sturdy.

Product is a good product and have purchased in the past. This time I purchased it like new condition to save a few dollars. Product came repackaged in larger box. No problem. 4 of the 16 tiles had been cut by original purchaser and placed in the center of the remaining tiles making them unable to interlock.

The flooring is good but the box that came was one tile short. It was supposed to be the 16 pack but only came with 15. Kinda a bummer
