Pros and Cons of Quartz Countertops

Reasons to Consider Quartz Countertops

Quartz is a manufactured product and can be very attractive. The manufacturing process allows a much more comprehensive range of colors than natural stones such as marble or granite. The appearance of the finished engineered stone is rich, even luxurious. The finish has a depth that can't be produced with solid surface materials like Corian.

Quartz has the same durability as concrete and granite but is much more forgiving, so that it won't chip or crack as easily. It doesn't have the same hardness in the feel that some people find unpleasant.

Quartz countertops are relatively new, but they've found a loyal following because of their many good qualities, such as their attractive appearance, durability, and the fact they don't have some of the weaknesses of natural stone. Also called engineered stone countertops, quartz countertops are here to stay. Here is a look at their strengths and weaknesses.

Pattern - Marble and Granite in Middleton, MA

Like other hard surface countertop materials, quartz is non-porous so it resists staining much better than granite, marble and concrete. It stands up to juice, oil, wine, tomato, coffee and other sources of stains in the kitchen. For cleanliness, a non-porous surface means that it will not harbor bacteria or viruses. You can always be confident that you are getting your quartz countertop absolutely clean, and that's a great benefit in both the kitchen and the bathroom.

Reasons to be Cautious about Quartz Countertops

There are a few cons to this engineered stone. The biggest concern for some will be the price. Keep in mind, however, that prices are competitive with other high-end countertop materials such as granite, marble, concrete, and slate.

The look of quartz countertops is contemporary. That isn't necessarily a weakness since beauty is in the eye of the beholder. However, some homeowners prefer the natural look of granite, marble, slate, or wood. The seams on engineered stone countertops are also sometimes noticeable, like those with granite countertops, but this isn't a deal breaker for most people. Finally, quartz is less heat-resistant than granite, crushed glass, or concrete, so caution must be used with hot pots and pans in the kitchen or hot hair tools in the bathroom.

Summary

For a contemporary, upscale look with deficient maintenance required, quartz countertops are worth considering. Please keep in mind the few potential drawbacks and their price. If you’re willing to live with those things, quartz countertops should meet or exceed your expectations.
