porcelain slab kitchen countertop
Comments (16)There is a product being released by Cosentino ( manufacturer of Silestone quartz) in the next 90 days which is called an ultra compact surface and is the first surface of its kind ever made. It is comprised mainly of porcelain but also has quartz and refined glass in it as well. It is extremely impact resistant and heat resistant up to 1400 F. The other great thing about the product is that it's available in both 2cm ( 3/4") and 3cm (1 1/4") thicknesses.

Comments (153)Everyone is asking for a porcelain slab fabricator close to where they live. What I did was search on Houzz to find local contractors with porcelain slab installations. Then viewing work that they did a few years ago for any cracking particularly around the sink faucets. I did not have good experiences asking the material vendor for contractors for other projects I have done....See Moreanyone have a porcelain kitchen countertop of 5.6mm

Comments (1)Hi there- hkmckinney93 I have been shopping porcelain countertops for awhile and am seriously considering MSI Stile in Arabescato. I have a very experienced fabricator/installer lined up, but haven't reserved the slabs yet or put money down simply because several other components of our kitchen remodel are held up (flooring, appliances) several months. While weve been waiting Ive heard prices have gone up $6 per sq ft. Did you end up making a selection from MSI or another mfg? If so what did you use and how do you like it? The other threads on Houzz about porcelain are scary because there's a lot of complaints -but I have to wonder if the people who post are the ones who are upset, not the people who are satisfied (they don't bother). Hard to know if this is a poor choice (porcelain). Thoughts?...See MoreAnglophilia
