To refuse to live with shiny kitchen floor tiles?

They look as slippery as an ice rink.

Beautiful - glossy porcelain; large tiles with thread-thin grout lines.

But I imagine every day for the rest of my life hollering "DON'T RUN IN THE KITCHEN". People bringing puddles in from a rainy day or a water fight in the garden and "whoosh". Toddler Dd splat.

AIBU?

But you'll never appear in a Flash advert without them! Grin

You can get the exact same look of tile with a non-slip type surface - we got them in our new build - we spent ages worrying about how slippy they could be, but still loving the look, then by accident came across a non-slippy version - they've been down a year now and they are excellent

There is an anti slip rating for floor tiles. [Hmm].

PIL have shiny tiled floors. We stayed there for a week last year and I fell on my arse a number of times.
