The kitchen is from Neptune Kitchens, and I believe the client went for a quartz reconstituted stone worktop- supplied by Neptune.

POLL: What's your kitchen worktop material?
Q
Comments (127)
Another vote for Dekton and Sileston Quartz worktops, use them all the time in our projects as so much more forgiving and low maintenance than granite or marble. Agree that Corian is a good option if you have a large island to prevent visible joins, whilst it has other benefits you do need to be very careful when it comes to heat. Vast range of colours and textures in all types nowadays so the type of material shouldn't limit the effect you want to achieve - be that traditional or contemporary. I am always a big advocate that a worktop is an investment, there is no point spending a large sum on a beautiful quality kitchen and then finishing it off with a worktop that won't stand up to time as well as the rest of the room or cheapen the look - I always recommend to go for the best you can afford.

Zenith worktop. Pros and cons
Q
Comments (4)
We were thinking of going for zenith worktops but the negative reviews seemed to outweigh the positive ones - I would be interested to hear anyone's else views or personal experience though as we still really like the look and feel of it. The main issues I read about were from kitchen fitters with regards to getting good joins and difficulties in cutting it (getting a good finish on the edges, and cutting out for sinks).

How practical are draining grooves on quartz worktop
Q
Comments (13)
How practical? they're not, just a waste of time/money as they don't have the fall in the grooves to drain water away. The only practical reason for the grooves is when you stand glasses on it to drain they wont vacuum to the worktop, you're better off using a tea towel on the worktop to drain your washing up and having more worktop prep space. They also collect limescale in hard water areas. Agree with Daisy, the modern way is not to have them, can't remeber the last time a customer insisted on having them and any customers who has wanted them once i've shown them my pros/cons drainer grooves brochure they've agreed that they're not worth it, haven't missed them and appreciated the extra usable work top they have. If you're worried about water running over the side of the worktop than as Jonathan has shown a recessed drainer is the best option.

painting a kitchen worktop
Q

What is the material of the actual worktop? It sounds like laminate from your description. You could try and paint it but its a heavily used and cleaned item so there are no guarantee's that it will stand up to constant use even with the correct primer. I think its a waste of time and money but if you are aware that it is unlikely to work then its your choice. I would just live with it until you can afford to change it.
