I think I'm going with quartz when we do our kitchen (hopefully next year), just for a change.

For resale, folks today do like granite. Did you look at quartz or concrete? They would have a different look.<br /><br />Both of your choices look nice. The edges do matter.<br /><br />I hate proving I am not a robot when I write on these blogs.
