Finishing daughter's basement rental.
What materials are advised for counter tops that are low maintenance
and good life? This is a rental. Tenants probably young
professionals. Sink in 4'x5' island with seating around. (Stools).
Remaining counter tops are prep areas along the wall.
Thank you!

No one likes Corian or other similar surfaces?

Not particularly because...

1. You can't buy Corian sheet stock to fabricate yourself unless you go to
Corian scholl (and are a licensed contractor?). Don't know about other man
made products.

2. It (all) are relatively expensive.

3. All are various minerals with a plastic - usually acrylic - binder;
therefore, heat sensitive and subject to scratching, some more, some less

Not the stuff for a rental IMO..
