Tour de ProvinceWhat's the BestKitchen Countertop?corian, quartz, or granite.

Isn't the idea of the "BEST" kitchencountertop a relative idea?

Yes and no. After morethan 30 years in thisbusiness and completing over 50,000 kitchens.

We do have an opinionabout which productsmake the BEST kitchencountertop surfaces.

(So, here it goes.)

The three main countertopoptions are...

Corian Quartz Granite

Now that you know your options,let's talk about the pros of each.

Corian's non-porous surface isresistant to staining, mold, bacteriaand heat.

Quartz is the 4th hardest mineral onthe planet. Your quartz countertopswon't chip, crack, or stain.

Granite countertops are mined frommother earth, so it is "naturally"beautiful.

Not to get all negative, but let's talkabout the cons.

Even though Corian comes in manycolors and varieties it will never havethe shine of Quartz or granite.

Quartz is less heat resistant so youmust use trivets or hot pads whencooking.

Granite is a porous surface so it mustbe sealed every year.

Our personal favorite is Quartz!

The three mainstream manufacturers:

While quartz countertops are 93%quartz, the slabs are engineeredusing resin and post-consumer

recycled products.

Quartz countertops areso durable - and scratch,stain, and mold/bacterialresistant.

They come with somepretty serious warranties,ranging from 10 to 15years, and Cambria evenoffers a limited lifetimewarranty.
