Quartz countertop - MSI vs Silestone
Comments (6)Sandy, We are glad to hear you are considering Silestone in your project. We wanted to let you know that Silestone Quartz is manufactured in Spain, using Brenton technology. Silestone is a very durable product, both stain and scratch resistant. Also, the use of Microban in Silestone was discontinued in 2007. If you have any other questions, let us know! We are happy to help. Additionally, here is a great photo of Lyra used in a kitchen, hope it helps you in making your decision....See MoreMSI vs Titan Quartz Countertops
Comments (2)Both these colors are made in china, but don't be totally taken back by that. The important thing with both brands is to check what sort of certifications each offer...there are many off brand Chinese quartz materials that do not have any certifications and may potentially have the issues that @mayflowers brought up above. I have worked with Titan Quartz many times for my clients kitchens (islands and countertops) and the calacatta venezia is a great option. This color is NSF, IAS, and SGC certified so I've been confident recommending it to my clients (plus it has a nice residential warranty)....See MoreMSI quartz pricing msi fabricator vs others
Comments (13)I am a fabricator. If the fabricator has to buy slabs specifically for your job then whatever is left over is waste you pay for. Slabs are typically 55 -65 sq. ft. and many kitchens fall into the 50 - 75 sq. ft. range so more than one slab is needed. Your best opportunity for the lowest price is working with a fabricator that stocks a color you want as he can use one full slab plus a partial slab as the leftover material goes back into his inventory for the next job. Given the preceding it is still to you advantage to shop different fabricators as pricing can vary significantly from shop to shop. The fabricators that sell only a single brand will almost always be the highest price per sq. ft....See MoreMSI Quartz Luma Luxe Sample vs. Product Installed
Comments (3)I‘m so sorry this happened. I loved Arno as well but after my fabricator ordered the slab- it looked nothing like the sample. Instead of thin and gold it was thick and more brown. At that point i rejected the slab and went with a different company. My fabricator said its been happening way more lately where they look nothing like the sample or photos online. Were you able to see the slab before they cut it?...See MoreTerri_PacNW
