Countertops

[Esther]

I have been doing some research on countertops and seem to get a varied of opinions.

Between Silestone, Granite and Coran if you have used any of these what is your experience.

Surveys indicate that Granite scratches easily, as does Coran and Coran stain. Silestones shows seam lines.

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.
