Kitchen Top Options

Some ID quoted granite, most quoted solid top. Given the pros and cons, I got my preference already. Dear, see attached and see which one you like okay?

Natural stone such as granite and marble are considered to be the height of elegance and will last longer than most kitchens. Stone, however, is very expensive and requires some care: grease will stain granite and acidic foods such as orange juice will etch the finished surface of marble.

Though these materials can be machined with standard woodworking tools, installation requires a professional.
