Any pale colour will stain if you treat it badly so even quartz which is considered to be hardwearing will need care so you don’t leave anything on it that has a strong colour (such as red wine spills etc). Beware- the inexpensive quartz seems to be more plain while the more veined patterns can be three times the price. If you are comfortable with a higher price range you might consider porcelain style products like Dekton where marble like products are widely available.

I think Minnie's right, you have 1m of prep space and that includes any space you want for a drainer for the sink. I think you need the extra space at the back, not maybe for the prep, which you could do in the 1m between hob and sink, but for the kettle, toaster, coffee maker maybe, preparing drinks etc. The space is very tight and I think the storage is quite limited. I put the Fridge Freezer in the big grey cabinet, so you could see the difference between it and the rest of the units as it juts out. This i think can be improved upon too:- I would integrate the Fridge Freezer as the space is small and will look a lot better with a flat profile:-

my thinking was the table could be pushed flush with the island the majority of the time leaving a gap to walk past of approx 140cm. Thats with a 110cm gap between island and units, 90cm island and 90cm table. Or if you rotate the table and have it pushed with one end against the island, a 120cm table would sit 4 and leave 110cm to pass which is the same as the gap between island and units. If it was an extending table it can be rotated 90 degrees on the rare occasion more seating is required. Yes, it would mean it would probably close off that side of the room but if it's not a daily occurance? Some compromises will have to be made if you really want to fit everything in that space unfortunately.

I can just about see the marks that you mean, and really do sympathise, but your kitchen looks fabulous! When I get a new 'thing', i am horribly anxious until the first mark, after which I find I can relax. You have to live in the space, not maintain a showhome. My pal's husband installed a uniquely-shaped gleaming stainless steel countertop and, during the first week, while whisking a vinaigrette, she got salt under the bowl. Disaster. So, amidst much angst, husband took wire wool to the whole surface to achieve a grainy surface. Temporary disappointment followed by relaxation! Time to get out your Grayson Perry vase of peonies and open a bottle...
