I used Silestone for my last kitchen countertop at Villa Marina in East Coast. Fantastic material. Scratch and Stain proof. Better than granite. Its costly though. I got mine from builders Shop (Stile). It kept in such good condition despite me using it as a chopping board just after my buyer signed the option! Will be using it for my new place. Just wondering how its close competitor caesarstone compares, or if anyone else on the forum here knows anywhere else one can get a good deal on the material. Its a good material, just $$$, would be grateful opn any tips on where to get a better deal for this.
