Leave all your personal banking information with your fabricator. You may have a 401K left when he's through.

Now Treb....some people are just not price-sensitive. Have you seen the stuff in action-is there anything worthwhile in the product to justify a high price? Or is this just a situation of bragging rights for the have versus the have-nots? To me it looks like it's sole claim to fame is that it actually measures the level of whiteness which, given many people intense desire for the ultra white kitchen, may matter enough to some people to justify an over-the-top price.

Actually --- ..the price is cheaper than quartz and sintered stone :)
So no , looks don't justify the high price , just quality...
I dislike scruff marks on quaartz, if you have a better product then I am all ears...

For me the most important stuff is

Stain proof, scratch proof, heat resistance, easy cleanup and maintenance.
If any product does that (so far that I know -sintered stone and crystal stone), I would love to take a look
I am not a very careful person , and I am sure after six months I would'nt care how I place my hot pots and pans, and not dash to the towel to clean up the mess before the cooking is done.

Getting all these features in white - I know if a tall order but i do like (white hopefully without specks) for it makes the space more bright... to each his own .. but yes , please don't give up on your responses if you think you have a good product to share..

by the way this can be fabricated by anyone who deals with marble.

Ah you guys disappoint me, you started so well but now not a sound.

Oh well, hopefully someone will have more info for me. Hopefully I can sort this out before the end of the year.. if not C'est la vie.

Have a Happy and safe holiday!!

I'm skeptical of "scratch proof". Dekton and Neolith earn that title, but there isn't any 99% glass that get it.

Scratch resistant, maybe. Getting scratches out? Turn over your banking information to your repairperson. And no whining.

I love your answer :) thanks trebruchet ..

I've been testing a large white sample and I have tried very hard to stain it with no luck. I have tried hard to scratch it, with VERY minimal results. It took something very dense and sharp to create a mark.

I've done the same tests on Neolith, etc. To me, this stuff is by far the most durable product I have tested.
