Customer Reviews for Daltile Terra Antica Oro 12 in. x 12 in. Porcelain Floor and Wall Tile (15 sq. ft. / case)

Best color tile I have found and very high quality. Also purchased 6" size and 3X12 bullnose which had equal quality. Very good tile and an excellent price. The color variation makes it look like slate or stone. I recommend lighter ground and hopscotch pattern to accent the tile beauty/color variation! I uploaded this photo for other buyers to see - the home depot photo isn't a good representation of the color.

In 2005 we tiled our bathroom floor and tub surround in both "Oro and Rosso" colors. We used 6" tiles in a diamond pattern on the wall bordered with 3 x 12" cut 12" tiles. And then 12" tiles on the floor. The effect of random colors, great texture and tumbled edges give it a Tuscany appearance. The tile looks handmade but was easy to lay. We love the tile so much we came back 12 years later and tiled our mudroom with the 12" Rosso color. Now Im back again to order more 12" tiles in Oro to do a large tile project at our business. Very satisfied with the Porcelain tile. The color runs through the tile so you can save yourself some money, no bull nose is needed.

Beautiful tile! Arrived at store for pickup inatimely manner, but store staff were extremely slow.

There seem to be 5 different finish colors/patterns, from light to mixed to dark. The patterns aren't obvious when the tiles are mixed and turned randomly. There is a light texture that's not noticeable from standing. These look nice in a random pinwheel pattern with the 6 inch size tiles, although in my review of the 6 inch tiles I don't recommend them separately.

These 6 inch pieces are cut from larger tiles and on each tile, the cut sides have several edge chips and it appears that there's no edge treatment done after the cutting. After grouting, the chipped areas tend to blend with the color pattern and they're not noticeable from standing but it shows poor quality.

This product has extremes in variations however the edges are tumbled worn. None of the edges on any single piece are the same. Most of the tiles we received in a single box had a single edge with almost no tumbling and another edge had extensive gauging related to tumbling that made the appearance quite stark and obviously inconsistent. The color itself is nice and the surface texture was what my wife and I wanted. If one can handle the edges then go for it. Quality control likely needs to be reassessed.

I purchased this tile to be used in a shower that has two tempered glass walls and a door. The other two walls are ceramic tile and it looks great!!

We ordered this hoping it would work for our bathroom floor, but it was a little too rough for my feet. We love the color variance of blues, greys, and greens, all flecked with off-white. This tile would be beautiful for an outdoor space or an indoor/outdoor patio or sunroom. We had no trouble returning it in store.

Quality as expected with Dal Tile, color worked out perfect in a repair area we needed.

I bought this flooring years ago for my kitchen. I still love the look and random color variation so much that as I'm preparing to renovate my kitchen, this floor is the only thing that stays! I'm also going to order more of this flooring for my laundry room so it flows with the kitchen!

As we are choosing tile for a sunroom,we've been to many different tile stores. I've gone back and forth between warm or cooler tones. I stumbled on these on-line but knew that I would of course have to see something first. Maybe you can buy 1-4 as a sample, but here's a warning...that won't be enough to see what this tile with it's wide array of variations will look like plus you have to order a case which is not a problem as you can return it at Home Depot if you don't like it. It has vast variations running from dark to light. There are about 6-8 different looking tiles. I ordered a case for each color that I was considering with the intent of returning the one I didn't like. The Celeste/Grigio has the appearance of slate/cement that has been worn. It has an old world charm. It is not a shiny tile which was great as it wouldn't have worked in the room. I love the color which, in it's many variations, has an overall greenish/grey tint. Some of the tiles also have a mottled appearance. I laid down the 15 tiles which came in the case and was able to see that there are very dark tiles and very light tiles. I'm giving the tile a 3 because it will take some additional planning to lay this tile and ensure we have the randomness that was intended. I'm also giving it a 4 as I think the lightest variation is too light. If this floor isn't planned out right it could actually look like a checkerboard. But that said, it is my top pick for a floor and we have considered a wide range of materials including terra cotta tile, travertine, and a variety of other porcelain tiles. I like that it is not shiny, it feels and looks really nice, it isn't common and the color is a perfect accent to my white walls. The information supplied says it's low maintenance and does not need to be sealed. As I mentioned, I also ordered a brown variation of the tile (Oro). I liked the warmth, but the variation of color and light and dark was just too out there. There were browns, red browns, tans, and very dark brown. You might not believe they could all come from one case. Note: You really can't decide much based on the pictures you see on line. But if you have time and patience, check out this tile. It is twice as much as we would have liked to spend, but it looks better than the cheaper tiles. You get what you pay for. Note: I almost went with a cheaper tile but laid out a case in the sunroom. My son and I came in with wet sneakers and almost fell as our feet slipped right out from under us. Make sure to look at the friction rating if it's going somewhere that might be wet. You want a floor that is as non-slip as possible. (although no tile floor is 100% non slip, some are like ice when wet) I hope this helps someone. I always appreciate these reviews.

The free shipping was great and the tile was packaged very well. Shippment arrived on time and delivered to our door.
