The glass ones? My friend has a glass tiled floor and it's not slippery at all.

I was told that we should go for a matte finish on the floor (b/c of potential slips) - we went with one that is mostly matte but has some hi-gloss pieces in it as well. No slipping issues.

I had the mosaic tile that comes on the mesh backing in the bathroom at my co-op. The white tile was non-slip and the blue diamond was gloss. I actually bought them at HD and they were perfect. I loved them so much that I'm going to do the same in the bathroom we are going to gut ina few months.

i think these are the ones we were looking at after she told us that the all blue ones were too slippery.

Definitely not. The ratio of blue to white is like 1 to 8. I can highly recommend them. They look great and are pretty easy to install.

I lived there for 2.5 years after I had the bathroom done, and I never had a problem. Once in a while I used bleach to wash the floor and wiped it down well afterwards.
