LG Minuet or Silestone Calacatta Gold Quartz?

6 years ago

last modified: 6 years ago

Need help deciding between LG Minuet quartz and Silestone Calcatta Gold countertops for our kitchen. It is a relatively small kitchen with Benjamin Moore Swiss Coffee colored cabinets, and we are planning to use a white subway tile as the backsplash. I know the Calcatta Gold will create an all white kitchen, which I am not opposed to as it might help the kitchen appear larger, but am just having the hardest time deciding between the two options as I like them both! Any help is appreciated!

We are currently remodeling our kitchen. Installing bright white shaker cabinets, and chose Silestone Calacatta Gold. I think I looked at every quartz option out there...I was driving myself crazy. I didn't wan't anything too bold, or too busy, or too dark. I like that it reads more "white" from a distance, and you notice the lighter veining once closer. We will be using a light gray matte finish back splash tile, champagne bronze pulls, and lighter wood look vinyl plank flooring. Still nervous about how it will all look once completed, since we're piecing it all together...but we'll see soon!

@LA B what did you decide? Do you have photos? This sounds exactly like what I am planning on except I am second guessing everything right now...

@G O We ended up choosing the Silestone Calacatta Gold. Here are some photos, we are happy with how it all turned out. Feels simple, clean, and not too busy!

did you consider suede or go with the glossy... in general like more matte but wondering since no natural stone in kitchen, and a wood island that it will look too flat. Thanks for any info!
