        "text": "Porcelain is widely considered the most practical and durable choice for shower walls and floors due to its extremely low water absorption rate. Glazed ceramic is also a dependable, cost-effective option for vertical shower walls, though it is softer than porcelain. Natural stone, such as marble or travertine, offers high-end beauty but requires regular sealing, specialized pH-neutral cleaners, and more intensive ongoing maintenance to prevent staining and water etching. For shower floor pans, smaller porcelain mosaic tiles are often preferred because the numerous grout lines provide natural slip resistance underfoot.",
