The first house I ever bought had over 30 pieces making up each one sq. foot of tile....talk about grout lines! I couldn't replace that floor fast enough!

Not exactly groutless, but some tile installations, such as marble & granite are usually done with minimal grout lines. As for grout, the absolute best grout I've ever used that stays looking clean and resists staining, is Laticrete Spectralock. It's not the easiest to work with & you have to work very quickly as it doesn't have a long work time, so I wouldn't recommend it for a first-timer. But I highly recommend it for it's stay clean properties. I'll confess, I'm not much of a house-keeper and this stuff still looks great 2 years later.
