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..


Exactly what he said. Just add in not very stain resistant in the lighter colors and you have the whole picture.


Wondering if any one has a poured in place concrete counter top?
Thoughts and opinions about are of course encouraged.
