A Clean, Confident Foundation for Tile Perfection

This backer board creates an impeccably smooth, steadfast canvas that lets your tilework sing. I love the subtle grid—an elegant guide that keeps lines razor-true while cutting. Float it beneath large-format marble or warm wood-look planks to elevate everyday rooms with a spa-worthy finish. It’s the quiet luxury essential that makes craftsmanship feel effortless.

Nice
It looks just like what it looks like in the photo but after a while the blue turned a brownish color and the back holder broke. It’s not very waterproof either but overall it’s a good product.

Great fun protection!
This case gets used.. more than it should. Stand is still working great. Coloring is definitely tinted a bit but it still looks good on a gen 10 iPad.

Weak penholder/only 1 stand position
I got this case for my iPad I use for medical school and it fits great, no issue there. My only complaints about it are that the Apple pencil holder slot doesn't have a great hold, which is fine if your device is mostly stationary, but I worry about losing the pencil in the future when walking around at clinical rotations. They should have put it on the other side of the device where the built-in magnet is so that there was some sort of internal holding force while not making the case any more bulky. The kickstand has a nice hold when locked into place, but there is unfortunately only one angle that it does lock into place, all others it tends to slide sometimes.
