Read the instructions!!!

If the substrate is not absolutely flat, your going to have issues.
Do not grout like you would ceramic tile! Use a stiff sponge to wipe down and don't apply a lot of pressure, or you will wipe out the acrylic grout.
Work small areas at a time when grouting.

If installed correctly it is a really good product. Looks as real as tile without some of the drawbacks of tile.
