Yes it's great they have thicker kinds and it can look just like stone , tile, wood, etc.

The counter tops are beautiful. How do you do the edge so it doesn't look like the old 70's laminates? It looks seamless.

Yes, a square edge will show the brown seam, and those brown seams will be more visible with a light-colored countertop. We’ve read about tricks that some have used to eliminate that brown line (Sharpie, paint, etc.) Although we’re not endorsing any of these fixes, here’s a blog post in which a woman shows the process of eliminating the brown seam in her Calacatta Marble 180fx® countertop: http://bit.ly/19B6wSm Our new IdealEdge™ profiles will eliminate the brown seams, but those do not have the “squared” look you’re seeking.

who installed this kitchen counter top for their advice on how they achieved the seamless appearing edge? This is the exact width? and look I want to acheive

Hi, tanlew72. A set builder installed this kitchen countertop. There is a seam in this edge, as it is a laminate with a square edge, it just is hard to see in this particular image. As mentioned in the post above, we have read about tricks that some people have used to eliminate the seam. Although we're not endorsing any of these fixes, here is a post about a woman who used a unique process to eliminate the brown seam in her countertops, which are the same as used in this photo: http://bit.ly/19B6wSm
