Can you use this as a Kitchen Backsplash?

Yes, they'd make a very attractive & durable backsplash (just note, they are very high gloss). I agree with the previous reviewer, it will require the use of a stronger adhesive especially since they'd be placed vertically instead of down on the floor.

You can, but it would probably need really strong glue to hold it up. These, like most self-stick tiles, bond securely to the floor over time as they are walked on. They could detach from a wall without some help.

You could, I personally don't think it would look good. It's obvious it's Vinalmax tile, I think it would look tacky.

These are too big for that. They're 12x12 floor tiles. However, there are 4x4 stick-on tiles available at your local big box DIY home store and here. For those, color and tones that match your color are important, as I learned the hard way. Also, if you use them, you probably need to put cement board (that's what it's called) on the surface first, to create a totally smooth surface. The problem with that is the diamond blade on a drill that you need to cut it.

I'd also advise against it. These are 12-inch tiles and most tiles used for a backsplash are much smaller. Also, the adhesive was barely sticking when I purchased these for a small bathroom and I returned them because I felt they would not withstand wear. I don't think they would stay up vertical especially having to withstand heat and moisture from a stove or oven, (not to mention a couple of tiles were "cracked" right out of the box). With the additional expense of having to purchase alternate adhesive-you are better off going with something made for a backslash. Hope this helps.

Rebecca, that is not what its intended to do. BUT Rustoleum has a great product called, Tile Transformations...I am preparing to use it on my tile kitchen counters and backsplash after using their Deck Restore this summer that saved me thousands of dollars in porch and deck replacement. They have come up with some great products for DIY folks. Go to the Rustoleum.com website and get the skinny on your tile backsplash. Or you can give them a call, their folks are really helpful. Any of their products take time (but little skill). I think you will be pleased...and no, I don't work for them, but sure do recommend them.

I should think so. You need to put everything together, so you could not use the countertop that comes with. Formica is not so healvy, but quartz is, so I don't know if a stone countertop might be ot be too heavy a load over a long time. This particular piece has no back. We used some kind of board on the back as we wanted to close the space. We have probably 15 pieces of this collection and it has worked very well for us. We use it for storage.

No, I would not use this product for that. To be truthful, it would really look ugly. Instead, I would fabricate an aluminum "flare" the would channel the heat away from the mantel. I would position it on the back of my wood stove angled toward the front. If you are creative, you can even make a decorative one that has a fancy outer border.

I don't think this backboard is suitable for what you want to do. This one is more like a hard plastic but I doubt it's thick enough to hold onto a screw / bolt after drilling. A wooden board might be best.

If that back wall was smooth and free from any grime/grease, I'm sure it would, if the installation was smooth with no air bubbles or pockets. It might be interesting to frame it in some way. We've used decorative molding from big box stores and painted them with acrylic metallic paints, to frame a glass mosaic tile backslash in a bathroom. Seal it with a clear coat of lacquer. Interesting project. Have you thought of 6x6 or 8x8 mirror tiles? More durable and easy to clean.

I guess you could, but you would have to remove it from the cabinet in order to open the top sufficiently to add things to it. I think it would also hang at an awkward angle. If counter space is a at a minimum (like my kitchen) I keep mine on the floor in a corner.

No. The countertop/sink vessel is one piece and the curved backsplash is a separate piece. You don't need to even use the backsplash if you don't want to. I didn't think i was going to use it because I usually like a more simple clean-lined modern look, but I added it about a month ago and it looks amazing. Its GORGEOUS!!! You can see a picture of it installed in my bathroom here before I added the backsplash: http://theblueoar.com/

Not to my knowledge. Just went and looked at it and I didn't see anything on it that I thought could be used for that. It has two little bumper things on the bottom back, right and left, that I think are to keep it from getting too close to the wall/ backsplash. It's a great TO though. The longer I have it, the better I like it.

Personally, I do not think that it will look good, however it would probably work. Remember the size of these guards. You can buy larger sheets of this material made as permanent backsplash either online or at your local big box store.

Yes, possible, but not recommended. The counter sits on top of this sink, so you have an exposed counter edge around both sides and the back of the sink - which is fine for solid surface counters, but not for laminate.

No backsplash available, which is why I love it, I placed mine in a corner, and I did not like having a back splash and no sideedge, and I want tile to go both back and side for a splash guard that matched on both sides. The top is very much like marble, notlike glass, very white, very clean, and easy to maintain. I love it.

Yes, as far as I know? I,ve did just that and using it in my kitchen. Be sure the legs are real solid and braced well.

There is no way that the backsplash will scratch the cooking surface. Simply angle the backslash forward and snap it into place. In a worst case scenario, one might nick the very back edge (but one would have to be VERY clumsy)!

You can but there is no backing to it. It was meant to be used as in the picture.

I would not, it is not solid wood, so it may flake. I am sure you can, but i would not. hope this helps

I don't see why you couldn't. Check out the home stores. I like mine just the way it is but in my kitchen I do move it sometimes. Love this cabinet.
