@Diane and others...have had Verona for about two years now, still looks great, is not super glossy, so you do see smudge marks from certain angles but I think it wears well, you just can't ever seem to get it to sparkle after cleaning-but I love it regardless. I have had one or two chips on the edge from a glass bottle hitting or a pan, so they're not indestructible...no issues with hot temp items setting on it. Here are a few pics from when they first went in, and pics from recently...I went with a brighter white option because I wanted the cabinets to look crisp and not creamy, so not a custom white (alright everything else was custom BM, love that paint). We did end up with a random dark mark like others have mentioned, but it's small
And not bothersome, after a remodel you learn to deal with the imperfections (as a very picky person with an annoying eye for detail, I've learned you can only control so much). Honestly, I think what matters most is your fabricator...who cuts the templates. I had a very specific look and he let me lay the templates on the slabs exactly where I wanted them, it would have been a nightmare with a poor or lazy fabricator...so do you research on who actually does the cutting and install! Hope this helps!
