    Used quite a bit of it without any problems. Good adhesive but it doesn't hang the best on heavier wall tiles. If you're getting it for a good price it's worth it. The Fugabella grouts are good too.

    Checkout the adhesive poll, and have a read through the comments: Which Tile Adhesive Did You Use Most in 2010?

    Mapei is the world's largest manufacturer of building materials. And is priced very well as a result. And the quality is spot on. (I love their grout range which is unbeatable and matches their silicone's perfectly).

    Kerakoll not only don't have much market share in the UK. When Dave (the guy that runs this forum) had a problem he couldn't even get the rep out to the job. You wouldn't get that problem with mapei - their backup is A1.

    Now, if you're talking good back up service when things go wrong - I can personally vouch for Weber.

    I've never had any experience with Mapai or the other one.
