• Excellent Grout Application: The gum rubber face is the star of the show. It's the perfect balance of firmness and flexibility. It's firm enough to effectively push grout into the joints without being too aggressive, and the slight flexibility allows it to conform to slightly uneven tile surfaces. I found it did a great job of filling the grout lines thoroughly and consistently.
• Easy to Clean: Gum rubber is inherently non-absorbent, making clean up a breeze. Excess grout wipes off easily with a damp sponge, saving time and effort. This is a huge plus, especially when dealing with tinted grouts that can stain other materials.
• Durable Construction: While the handle is plastic, it feels surprisingly sturdy. It's comfortable to grip, even during longer grouting sessions, and doesn't feel like it will break under pressure. The connection between the rubber float and the handle seems solid and well-bonded.
• Affordable Price Point: Compared to other grout floats on the market, the Marshalltown gum rubber float offers great value for the money. It performs just as well, if not better, than more expensive options.
• Good Size and Shape: The rectangular shape and size of the float are ideal for navigating grout lines effectively. It's large enough to cover a decent area quickly but not so large that it becomes unwieldy to manoeuvre.
• Doesn't Scratch Tiles: The soft gum rubber is gentle on tile surfaces, minimizing the risk of scratches or damage, especially on more delicate tiles.

Ideal For:

• Applying grout between tile surfaces in kitchens, bathrooms, and more.
• Working with delicate tile such as glass, marble, and polished porcelain.
• Achieving a smooth, professional grout finish.

Highly recommended for anyone looking for a durable, effective, and affordable grout float. It's a must-have tool for any tiling project.
