re: Wood plank-looking porcelain tile

I have it throughout my entire first floor and love it. Everyone thinks it is expensive wood floors until I tell them it's tile. It's a little dusty in the pic because I still have contractors in here working on things, but it has a matte finish that makes it not look like tile, it looks much better in person than in the pic.
If you want it to look right you have to get a good tile, lay it with as thin a line as possible, and have a professional do it.
I paid about $9/sf to have the tile below installed, but it cost $5.50/sf just to buy from the distributor. This one is laid using different size tiles, so it really creates the look of a wood floor. I drug some heavy furniture across it and not even a scratch though.

I like that look. 6x36, right? Are those rectified tiles?
