Help - which white marble effect quartz worktop to choose???
Comments (14)agree with comment above - call Cosentino and they can direct you either to a local kitchen showroom with worktop installed in a colour you are considering or they can tell you where you can view the slabs. i live in Ireland and visited the Cosentino warehouse in Dublin to view slabs - it certainly affected our decision making. we went for lagoon and its great - no problem with staining...See MoreWorktop dilemma: which quartz is best value?
Comments (3)We have installed many Ceaserstone worktops for our clients and not had any complaints thus far. Each quartz should have a range of price groups, from our experience a good quartz will have between 97%-98% quartz minimum which is usually mixed with resin and baked at high temperatures. Can i ask if you are based near London? We have a showroom on wigmore street and stock lots of different quartz samples, feel free to pop in we would be happy to talk you through the different options.

Comments (12)I agree with Jonathan albeit that his comments should apply also to Italian kitchens. The majority of kitchens from these two countries, even low priced ones, are manufactured to incredibly precise standards. Installed properly, you should expect vertical gaps of no more that 3mm between doors. And this will be precise throughout! Place 6 x 600mm cabinets side by side and they will measure 3600mm - not a millimetre more! Most, if not all German & Italian kitchens also use top quality very high density chipboard for carcases, not the lowest price board available which one can quite easily break with two hands, and which will bow and expand at the slightest sign of moisture. I am not saying that ALL British manufacturers use cheap material but those at the bottom of the market certainly do, in order to keep their prices low. So take care to select good quality carcases! And the difference between German and Italian manufacturers? I doubt there is much difference at all in respect of quality (except German carcases are generally 16mm whilst the Italians use 18mm - but same quality board) but I believe there is a huge difference in flexibility. One of the manufacturers we use provides carcases in melamine faced chipboard as well as veneered chipboard, plywood, MDF, stainless steel or a special 100% water resistant material made of recycled paper! Cabinets are available in any size with doors in laminate, lacquer, veneer, glass, brass, stainless steel & many other metals, Corian, stone, quartz and numerous other materials. Of course, all of this is available in the UK, but you'll need to go the bespoke route and you may not be able to get everything from any one company. Yes, delivery from Germany or Italy may take a little longer bit good things are worth waiting for - aren't they?...See More- 8 years agolast modified: 8 years ago
