> I ordered a Cutter Seat in Black Oak from Kontrast.  It arrived slightly damaged in shipping.  I messaged Louise to ask her what she could do to resolve the issue.  She worked with the manufacturer to have another seat sent to me which just recently arrived.
>
> I absolutely love the cutter seat!!  It came with a template and was easy to install.  It is beautify designed, handcrafted and it is built to last!!
>
> The customer service that Louise provided was top notch and I would definitely recommend buying from Kontrast!!!

## Community Q&A

**Q: Neolith Stain & Chipping Tests - Calacatta Ultrasoft vs. Silk** *(in Design Dilemma)*

We're planning to use Neolith Calacatta Ultrasoft in our primary bathroom, coffee bar and desktop but I've been hesitant about using it in our kitchen. After sharing my concerns with our local distributor they kindly provided me with two large slabs to test at home. Yesterday I finally got around to testing my Neolith Calacatta Ultrasoft and Calacatta Silk slabs! Neolith Finish Options
The first pic is the ultrasoft slab and the second pic the silk slab. Starting clockwise from the top, I tested Trader Joe's chili crunch oil, soy sauce, lemon, cooked beet, sriracha, yellow mustard and EVOO. After a little over an 1 hour, both slabs wiped perfectly clean with a Clorox wipe! Later this week I plan to retest with sliced lemon and red wine left sitting overnight.






I then used my 12&quot; cast iron pan to pound the surfaces/edges to test for chipping and scratches. Given the countless strings I've read about chipping, I wanted to see how easily the edges would chip. Surprisingly it took quite a bit of effort to chip the edges!
It took some really hard pounding before I created small noticeable chips which looked more like dents then chips. I repeated the experiment with a wooden rolling pin and stopped pounding on the edges because I didn't want to damage my wooden rolling pin, lol! The rolling pin created NO DENTS/CHIPS.
I then dragged my cast iron pan across my slabs to test for scratching. I was shocked to find fewer scratches on the ultasoft slab than the silk slab! I was able to easily remove the marks with a little bit of liquid Soft Scrub with Bleach (the actual name of the product) using just a paper towel on the ultrasoft slab and a magic eraser and Soft Scrub on the silk slab.






I hope others find this information useful! :)

A: We installed Neolith on backsplash and kitchen counters recently and while we love the way it looks....the counters are now chipped. This is not a high use house it' s a second home but either way, this should not be happening. We probably have about 6-7 very obvious chips around sink and on counter edge and it bothers me everything I look at it. I am very disappointed. Trying to get in touch with installer to repair but - it's there.

**Q: Would you recommend Neolith for kitchen countertops?** *(in Kitchens)*

Hi, we are super interested to use Neolith Estatuario for our kitchen countertop.  We feel that it looks and feel better than Quartz.  However, worried about chipping and other durability problems.  Has anyone had direct experience with Neolith and would you recommend it?

**Q: Restoration Hardware - Cloud Modular Sectional review?** *(in Design Dilemma)*

Has anyone purchased the Cloud Modular Sectional from RH and have any comments? No doubt expensive, interested to hear how it holds up with the foam core wrapped in down and goose feathers. concerned it might go pretty limp with time and begin to get uncomfortable - perhaps this could be avoided with a more durable material as the cover (eg. army duck as opposed to the belgian linen), any and all thoughts/experience appreciated!

A: We just had ours delivered last week \[that and a custom bench\] made by Monarch , we had fallen in love with the Cloud but not the price \[or the quality\], and found Monarch through houzz. The sofa is beautiful, as is the bench, and although we have not yet really used the items 
\[it's a second home\], the quality seems superb. We did our own high performance Revolution fabric on both sofa and bench. Highly recommend.

**Q: Candle** *(in Product Questions)*

What is biggest candle I can put in here?

A: Hello! it is designed for a tea light. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you!

**Q: cord length** *(in Product Questions)*

I'm interested in this product but don't need the cord to be 10 ft. Will it be possible for me to shorten the cord?

A: Hi you would have to have an electrician install it he/she should be able to do it. Best, Kontrast

**Q: Why can I add this pillow to my cart???!!!** *(in Product Questions)*

I want to buy it!

A: HELLO! and thank you for your note. This item has unfortunately just sold out. We have other cute animal pillows like it \[ducks, polar bears, squirrels, ponies, hedgehogs etc\] you should be able to see those also on our HOUZZ profile and we hope you will like one of those instead! If you have trouble finding those other pillows let us know. Thank you.
