Whlie Granite gives you natural beauty. it also comes with a price...LOTS O MAINTENANCE!!!!! Silestone has a lot to offer with variety AND is maintenance free.
You can actually get formica with newer bevelled edged that matches what they do with granite, and they also have a sheen you can get applied...it really is beautiful for a fraction of the cost.

several years...... I guess I'm in the dark about the "maintenance" granite needs. We were told just to seal it every so often. I think they said once a year. Just buy the stuff at Home Depot and wipe it on.... maybe I need to call the man that did it, just to make sure. But mine looks as nice as the day it was put in.

I like a shiny surface and white because it lightens the room and has a clean look.
I see some are now going to stainless steel, but that scratches and makes noise.
I know formica is cheaper and is what I have now. So I need no input on that.
Thanks. |
i have Coran and love it. it cleans very easy.
