Well, you do have to put a glider under the chair. You would do the exact same with tiles though.

Ha, there he is, the hero from the strawberry field. Read the topic again, it's about quality features, apart from the frequency of the pattern, no one has mentioned any significant difference between 20 and 80 euro tiles.

What are you nagging about?

Decor patterns, their repetition/frequency, assortments (mix of available sizes), surface texture, rectification/calibration for narrow joints, ... were discussed. If we consider all this not significant enough, then raise that instead of playing the troll here.

No, I wouldn’t do that with tiles. But yes, so far all our chairs have small felt pads under the legs.

I know, everyone has different priorities. But appearance is one of the most important and common reasons to buy. And appearance is what you generally pay more for without it being justified by manufacturing costs or anything like that.

Not because of the wear on the tile, but the wear on the chair is important to me, and the noise level is also not insignificant if the tiles are not perfectly smooth.

Maybe Tomtom is referring to the material. In my opinion, that’s no longer important nowadays; appearance is what matters. I would never think of spending €200/sqm on marble or something like that because it’s not worth it to me (plus I find it ugly). That seems a bit outdated to me.
