At the age of 35 years young and tiling all my working life. I have used most adhesives out there. But i must say to all fellow tilers if you can get to use KeraKoll try it. I stand by what i say "This will become the best in the world". It puts Mapei to shame.

Rubbish, tried it and its just "Ok" and the forum has had a fair share of bad reports recently using it too.

i have used Butech from porcelanosa, the most this year, on site work. if i have to buy, it's mapei, due to price.

Use Mapei all the time but if they keep putting the prices up the way they are will be looking to change! Still get a good deal from Tile Giant though(Thx Gillian).

As a new member on here and finding my way around. Can you please point me in the right direction to the bad reports on KerKoll. As for your comment of "just ok" i have to disagree with you. Other adhesives in the poll are "just ok". Any adhesive out of Italy is well above "just ok". Am also liking KeraKoll as a company with thier push on Environment impact that our trade makes. God sounds like i work for them PMSL

I know Dave had issues with some sample adhesive he recently used, I think it was their SLC actually, and he not only had issues, he tried to get support on the issue and he got no reply from them. He was well willing to give them a good go and was let down. I can't find the thread but it'll probably be in the adhesive forum somewhere.

Clearly Kkol hasn't been used much by our members in the last few years as our annual poll's show. There's normally a reason behind that.

Well we must all be doing something wrong, that is a big sweeping comment about mapei and fully unjustified. To compare them with Kerrakoll and describe them as poor is ludicrous.
I use 4 or 5 adhesives depending on what I am fixing and where in the country I am working, I tried kerrakoll twice, it was ok and that is how I would describe it, just ok, 5 out of 10.

Many more available, some are good and some bad. But none of them make statements completely dismissing them.
