[quote=Anonymous]We went to a couple of tile showrooms today to look at a new floor for our kitchen/foyer, and one of them was really pushing Alterna tile--they said it was a limestone vinyl composite, it does get grouted in between. It looked really nice--couldn't really tell the difference (visually) from some of the ceramic tile we looked at. My big concern is how it feels--it's definitely softer and warmer than ceramic, and had a slight plasticky-vinyl feel. (I actually really like the feel of cool, smooth tile on bare feet, but maybe I'm weird...) This is likely a forever house for us, so I'm not really worried about resale value, but I don't want something that feels icky or is going to look/seem horribly dated 5 years from now. Anyone have experience with this or a similar type of tile? Thanks.[/quote]
