Tivoli II Self Adhesive Vinyl Floor Planks, 10 Pack - 6" x 36", Maple - Peel & Stick, DIY Flooring - Natural Wood Grain Feel for Kitchen, Dining Room & Bedrooms by Achim Home Decor

I am so incredibly happy with how my stupidly cheap kitchen makeover turned out. Literally everything was purchased on Amazon, and I did it all myself on random weekends while very pregnant (safely, of course). If I could do it, you can, too! The whole thing (minus the kitchen gadgets--just the makeover) cost around $500 and was chosen for cost, looks, and simplicity of application (very pregnant, very impatient). I'm attaching the before and after images, and I'll talk about the individual part relevant to this review. Here is the list of all remodeling purchases: 1.

Brilliant Evolution BRRC135 Wireless LED Puck Light 6 Pack With Remote Control - Operates On 3 AA Batteries - Kitchen Under Cabinet Lighting This flooring turned out SO MUCH better than I anticipated. We were always intending to get bamboo flooring in the kitchen, but never got around to it. The biggest hurdle, and I think a lot of other reviewers were in the same boat, is that our kitchen floor is very uneven. Laying actual vinyl blanks, or bamboo, or pretty much anything else, wouldn't work without demolishing existing tile and evening out the floor (there is a noticeable 'hill' right in the middle between the kitchen and the dining area, so it'd be quite an undertaking). Since we were clearly never going to get to it, and since the tile was eating away at my pregnant nesting soul, I picked this. I chose this color simply because it was the cheapest of all Achim offerings (remember, we wanted bamboo). It was such a good price, I didn't even feel bad, and figured the color would grow on us, if only because of all the left-over cash for other fine things in life. I also ordered some floor glue because everyone else seemed to. I didn't read too much about it, just got whatever everyone else seemed to be getting (frequently purchased with). The prep work for existing tile was half-heartedly mopping the floor and scrubbing the baseboards because they were filthy. NOTE: I did not fill in the existing grout lines. The flooring did sag a little into the lines, exactly as I would expect. I actually bought another set of this exact floor to go over the existing floor, which I also hope will better insulate it, and go over imperfections caused by my impatience in some areas (slight gaps) and the glue situation described below. I laid the glue down per instructions. It's one of those soft-setting types, so it wasn't going to harden. As I laid the floor, no matter how thinly I spread the glue, and no matter how hard I tried to not step on the tiles I laid down, the glue kept seeping through the laid planks and getting everywhere. The tiles also kept shifting ever so slightly, because of the gooey mess underneath. Once I got out of the dining nook and into the kitchen, I gave up and just laid the tiles down with no additional glue--just the adhesive they came with. What's the worst that could happen? Turns out, I still don't know, because that worked so much better. No weird glue goo coming through, no shifting, it was perfect. My only issue was for the area under the fridge and the stove, which was... oily? I scrubbed it with all kinds of degreasers, but it was still slippery and weird. I just laid the tile and hoped for the best. It definitely did shift under the fridge (not the stove), so the second layer I intend to lay down will have fixed this gaffe, and I also got two types of multi-purpose floor super glue, so maybe that'll help too. The color itself looks great with stainless steel appliances. I have absolutely no complaints. It's been down for a few months with hyperactive dogs and a lot of foot traffic, and the planks look like new. Every possible downside is our fault as outlined. Great choice all around. If my floor wasn't all kinds of warped, I may have considered a more hardy type of flooring, but after all's been said and done, I'm not even sure that'd be worth it. My kitchen makeover with the floor cost almost nothing!

These planks are great! I had a small project to do and they were so easy to use, no trouble at all with the adhesive. And they cut pretty easily with a box cutter, too, which made it so handy. The color is nice, they are a bit shiny, but they have some depth. I got mahogany, which looks very serene.

In my opinion, this is a 5 star product - however, I gave this particular color 4 stars because of the small issue I describe below. We used these laminate panels to create a faux “wood” wall for a fraction of the cost and work of real wood panels! These panels seem to be holding to the wall well, and were easy to cut and install after a small learning curve. We purchased 3 colors for this project: “Driftwood,” “Mahogany,” and “Spruce Silver.” We let them sit at room temperature for a week before installing them to account for any shrinkage. We also purchased 2 tubes of liquid nails + a small nail/staple gun ($30 at Walmart) for this project based on other reviews that explain the weight of the panels can’t support themselves on a vertical surface like this. We checked our stud finder with a panel on the wall beforehand since we knew we would also be mounting the TV and had no issues detecting the studs or electrical wiring. We found that cutting the panels was simple when done with a basic utility knife after making 1 or 2 cuts on the patterned side and bending the panel at the cut. We chose to do a repeating, 2 row pattern because it was easier to keep track of which panels to do next and we wanted to make sure we used a fairly even amount of each color. We applied the panels to the wall with 1 swipe of the liquid nails on the back + 1 of the small nails in each corner and seem to be having no issues with the panels falling. ...I will say though that the Spruce Silver panels seem to “bow” out in the middle (it’s not noticeable at all unless you walk up to the wall and press on the panels), so we will probably go in and put an extra nail or 2 in those panels this weekend. The Mahogany and Driftwood panels seem to be slightly better quality than the Spruce Silver panels (the backing was harder to peel off of those, the adhesive seems to be stronger, and they also seem more solidly stuck to the wall,) but overall these are all a great product and I will definitely use the remaining boxes I purchased elsewhere in our home. For reference, our wall is 114”W x 98.5”H, and we used 6 1/2 boxes to cover the entire wall - 2 1/2 boxes of the Driftwood, and 2 boxes each of the Spruce Silver and Mahogany. The whole project start to finish took about 3-3.5 hours with an extended break somewhere in the middle :) I am SO pleased with the results, it looks as good if not better than real wood walls I’ve seen!

I used these to apply over an existing WC floor that was absolutely awful but unfortunately came with the house when we moved in. Real laminate would have been a poor choice and far too difficult for me to do myself as I'm an absolute DIY novice and probably shouldn't be allowed anywhere near tools without a real adult there to stop me breaking myself, so these seemed like an easy and safe choice. I prepped the floor by making sure it was thoroughly clean, dry and even. Then started applying these tiles. All the videos I watched suggested using a Stanley knife to cut with and that may well be the best way to do it but I personally used a pair of sharp, large scissors and they worked brilliantly. I didnt fancy slicing my finger open with a knife...which I would have done. Application was so so easy and quick and the glue is really strong but you're still able to lift a piece and replace it of you've not laid it properly on the first try. In a perfect world in would have lifted the toilet and fitted the tiles underneath but that's a job far beyond my capabilities so I made stencils in order to fit the base of the toilet and cut the tiles to shape...which was again very easy. I'm really pleased with the finished result. It looks like real laminate flooring. You would never guess it was a peel and stick vinyl and I've decided to buy more to do my hallway where the floor needs replacing. If I can do this - anyone can!
