We have the Wilsonart HD in our home office. I like it, it's held up well & it is THE most used room in our home so gets stuff set/thrown on in all the time. With the HD pattern the surface is just a little rougher so that might take some getting use to in a kitchen but it holds up well and the variation in gloss/mat gives an interesting appearance. In our case the darker color combined with the oak gives a more masculine appearance (IMHO) but it worked for our office (farming, trucking, truck parts).

I have the Deepstar Fossil in my very well used kitchen -- put it in Thanskgiving weekend 2006 and it has held up very well. I get positive comments on it all the time and have a friend that just put in the Bella Capri and hers also looks quite lovely.

The stove top and fridge have since been replaced but you can get an idea here:

If you are referring to the prefabircated type that you pick up at the store then, I can tell you that I have it in my current basement and they were also used as a builder basic in a previous town home that we owned. We don't use the counter space in the basement as a work area so I can't really tell you how it is holding up to everyday kitchen use. But we had a soild almond color prefab counter in the condo we owned that we used for 7yrs. It held up pretty well. When we moved in there was a slight crack by the sink from previous owner. It never got worse. It didn't show scratches and there wasn't a stain that I couldn't get out. For a builder quality counter it really did the job. It was just boring to look at. The condos were built in 1985 and some of my friends still have the original kitchens. If you are thinking custom counters from HD then you should get other quotes from other laminate dealers. HD does not always have the best price. They have a way of making the basic price per square foot look very attractive but by the time you upgrade you may be able to find a better deal somewhere else. We replaced the almond laminate counter top in our current home about 3yrs ago. We first got a quote from HD and when all was said and done we wound up with Corian and an integral sink from a kithen and bath place for only $200 more than HD custom laminate. Below is a picture of our Lowes instock cabinets and our HD instock laminate we use in our basement for extra storage.

Maybe I misunderstood the post, but I thought the OP was referring to High Definition laminate that Wilsonart produces and wasn't referring to Home Depot pre formed countertops. Perhaps the OP could clarify.

You are probably correct. When I see hd on these home improvement forums I automatically think Home Depot. If on an electronics forum I would think high definition. But now that you mention it I do remember seeing high definition laminate at Home Depot.

Were having a new home built & its almost finished. I went with "HD WILSONART" Laminate for my kitchen counter tops. The color is: Deepstar Glaze...it is very nice. Our house is almost ready. The reason I went w/Laminate is: I've use Laminate now for about 40yrs.or so & its given me Great Service. So I'm sticking w/it. razenette

cordovamom: That looks great! Especially in combination with that very pretty backsplash!
