My first choice for a countertop of reasonable cost was a postform
countertop. However, I have found that these tops come in a standard
25" width. Unfortunately, my countertops are about 23.5" in width.
I was told that if I want to stick to this option, I would have to cut
off the 4" backsplash or the waterfall front of the postform top. I
don't like either option. Are there other kinds of countertops that
I should be considering.... or, is this the best for the price??

You should seriously consider some kind of tile. It's not $8, but it'll
last a whole lot longer (think heat and sharps), and look a whole lot
better. Ceramic at somewhere near $2/sf, and you can get decent plain
colors of granite for maybe $7/sf. Rent a wet saw for a day.
