we looked at granite, corian, silestone, and zodiac. silestone and i believe zodiac are both quartz, they look nice but not available in a granite look like we wanted. my parents have silestone and they love it.

we decided to go with corian because of the price and durability. we don't ever put hot pots and pans on the countertops, and we always use cutting boards, so we shouldn't jack ours up.

the appliances are stainless GE profile, should look *****in when they're installed. the dishwasher and fridge are going to be set into the cabinetry for a pretty slick look.

Dude, all you have to do is drive up 80, stop at Donner summit, run out with your giant watercooled diamond saw and slice a couple pieces off. Next time I'm up there with my diamond saw I'll try to get some pieces for you

wow, I didn't think this would actually happen. I went to senator today to see if I could have my mirror put back on. When the rearview mirror fell off, it took a chunk of the windshield surface with it I go there and they tell me I have to have to replace the windshield. But now they are going to replace the windshield and mirror...UNDER WARRANTY! Keep in mind this car has over 60k and I'm the second owner...*sigh of relief*

Corian is the way to go! I've had mine for at least 8 years now and they look as good as Day 1.

Isn't granite a pain to clean anyway?

I love the edge on Corian (or any solid surface). I could run my fingers along it all day. There are no rough edges.
