This is always a question on this forum . Marble gets a patina over time if you love the look of a counter that is not perfect there is IMO no better material than marble but if like a large majority of the population you like things to look new forever get quartz.

I love the look of marble but everyone keeps telling me quartz is more durable. I cannot find a quartz that looks like carrera marble.

I was in the same boat when we renovated our kitchen a few years ago. Although I originally wanted Carerra, then Calcutta Gold, then decided to scrap the idea and go with a quartzite called "White Fantasy" for the reason you mentioned, plus cost because we were not planning on staying in the house long.

we have old carrara marble mantels in our house, and our LG rococo quartz is a dead ringer for them. you'd need to be the judge if it matches NEW carrara.

Caesarstone Quartz is getting better and better regarding available patterns. However, if you properly and regularly seal real marble, the gentle wear and tear (etching, usually) might be worth it to you.

What specifically about the durability of marble are you concerned about?
