They will replace cracked ones in the first year but not if you've sealed the grout. At least you'll be better able to make an informed decision.

BTW -- Easy way to clean grout -- get a good grout cleaner (Lowe's has one in a blue bottle, can't remember the name of it, sorry) and a Magic Eraser. Spray the cleaner, wipe it off, use the Eraser to finish clean up. Grout looks good as new and I've yet to find a stain it doesn't get out (including a berry stain left on for over 2 weeks by renters).
Sir, I don't know,....what is a Magic Eraser?
