I am doing some work at my mother's house. She wants new floors in her bathroom and toilet. She likes Altro (www.altro.co.uk). You often see Altro in public places, hospitals, schools, offices, factories, McDonalds toilets etc etc.
The one that she likes is a bit fancier than the stuff you get in McD's bogs (Altro Marine 20 too be precise).
I really don't like the stuff though. I think it feels horrible (they have sent us some) and I hate the texture. She says she likes it as it is "warm" but she has underfloor heating so stone would be warm! But maybe I am just a bit traditionalist liking tiles.
I think Altro may be a pain to clean as it is quite rough and bit of dirt will become ingrained in it??? Does anyone have any views on this product, either good or bad? If you have underfloor heating I can't understand why anyone would want anything other than tiles...
