Quartz, quartz, quartz. Nothing can rival the popularity of this sleek surface in today’s kitchens (and bathrooms, for that matter). It’s harder than granite, easy to take care of, and comes in a near-limitless array of colors and patterns, all of which makes it a great choice to top your kitchen island. Let’s break that down a little further.

Hard surface

Quartz is a highly durable material, which makes it a favorite for everyone from busy families to those who simply want a clean look without a ton of upkeep. Quartz is harder than marble and granite—both of which can scratch and chip.

Non-porous

The big complaint about marble is that the surface is prone to staining. Granite has this problem, too. Unlike many natural materials, quartz is stain-resistant, and doesn’t need the frequent sealing of other countertop options. Because Quartz is impenetrable, it is also a safer surface, able to resist mold, mildew, and bacteria.

Easy to care for

In addition to eliminating the need for frequent sealing, quartz also cleans up easily, needing just soapy water or a gentle cleanser.

So many choices
