Is MSI or Daltile better?

MSI and Daltile are both good tile brands, with Daltile generally considered slightly better for USA-made ceramic and porcelain quality and warranty, while MSI is considered better for natural stone variety and value, so better depends on needs. Daltile, owned by Mohawk Industries and headquartered in Dallas, Texas, is largest tile manufacturer in USA with manufacturing plants in Texas and Pennsylvania, offering ceramic tile at $0.50 to $3 per square foot materials and porcelain tile at $1 to $6 with PEI ratings 4 to 5 for durability, realistic wood and marble looks, FloorScore certification, and lifetime warranties on many collections, sold at Home Depot and Lowes. MSI, which stands for MS International headquartered in Orange, California, is largest distributor of natural stone, quartz, and tile with revenue over $2 billion, offering porcelain at $1 to $6 and natural stone at $5 to $15, with wider natural stone selection like granite and marble, plus Q Quartz quartz slabs at $50 to $100 installed and Everlife LVP at $2 to $4. Quality wise, Daltile has edge for USA-made tile quality control and consistent sizing, while MSI has edge for natural stone variety and competitive pricing. For ceramic and porcelain tile, Daltile is often rated slightly better for manufacturing quality, while MSI offers good value with similar quality. So Daltile is slightly better for USA-made tile, MSI better for natural stone variety.
