Corian For - Price, cheaper then grantite or Zodiac (quartz)
- seamless joints , looks great
- easy to repair minor scrathes
- built-in sink options
Against - Scrathes very easy
- Scrathes look far worst on darker colors
- built-in sinks only in light colors
Bottom line - looks great new, If you are after a dark color look for something else. If you expect rough handling (kids) think again
Granite - For - looks great in dark colors
- can't beat the look of nature
- very hard to scratch
AGAINST - Seams
- It can stain , needs sealant
- expensive
Zodiac (manmade quartz based product by Dupont)
For - looks very good in dark colors
- very hard to scratch
- will not stain , no sealant required
Against - $$$
- seams
- heavy , may be problem with some existing
installations
we are going with the Zodiac , mainly becuase where we live the only granite supplier is gouging customers. Unlike the rest of Canada , Zodiac is cheaper then Granite here in Newfoundland. My brtoher -in-law who owns a kitchen manufacturing company in another part of teh country flet that Zodiac was teh best , albiet also very expensive
