This looks very good to me.

Looks very good to me too. People for some reason expect Quartz seams to be invisible, but that is not possible.

Totally other subject is the risk that the heat from the cooktop or pots/pans on the cooktop can scorch the Quartz backsplash. Quartz is not heatproof.

I don't expect it to be invisible, but I do expect it to be inconspicuous. When my wife and I stand across the room, we can see the seams, and that's what causes us to question the quality of the workmanship.

They're fine.

They look great.

Are you Randy's son, by chance? I was a student of his back in the day.

I appreciate everyone taking the time to comment. It's nice to have a resource like this where you can get good feedback. Part of the problem just stems from genuine ignorance, and I just want to make sure I'm getting full value for a very expensive project. Thank you! And, for C H, the answer is yes.

Thought so-- I met you and your brother probably 25 years ago. Kitchen looks great, btw. And I agree with everyone that the seams are well done. Once the range is in and there's stuff on the counters, you'll forget all about them.
