Reply to: This post is also for people who asks for updated/LIVED-IN/2years of well-used marble countertop. My VT Danby gets plenty of etches, and yes, you can see many of them, in daylight or evening. -- It's almost been a year, and I finally got a chance to share pix of the etch. The stain is gone, and i think the etch is ~5% less harsh/obvious. But it all looks great under some pretty tulips. :) New story: Went to bed after hosting a party (see pix above: DH mixing chocolate martini). DH rinsed out the wine glasses and placed them on the countertop (one DW was running, and the other was drying all the pots/pan/knives). Well, this morning, I found one glass with wine ring. I started to get all crazy about it, but after a quick wipe with water/paper towel, the wine "stain" is gone. I love my marble sealant. Reminds me that I should reseal soon. (I think it's this one: recommended by GW users: Miracle Sealants PLUS PT SG 511 Porous Plus Penetrating Sealer) Amanda

Reply to: Newly installed Taj Mahal! Island slab was nearly perfect - - even after it slammed down and moved the entire island a quarter inch. Hope it is tougher than I'm afraid I'm reading about!

Reply to: I am getting ready for a kitchen reno. I've had laminate my entire life. (so that's a few + decades) I wanted something different this time, I won't be doing this again. At this point I can buy whatever I want. Did research on everything counter. Ended up exactly where you are. I could have written your post. I will be doing a nice rich medium brown cab with a white Corian counter. It will look a lot like this, though not the modern part. This is Arctic White Corian. Go for it, you're not living for other peoples opinions. You're living for you, your kids, and grandpa's masterpiece's. ;)
