Went to his shop couple of weeks back. had ordered my cabinet with granite top + melamine door. I think price wise is quite competitive.
If you read other forum they have a good reputation.

Of course! Only sedimentary rocks have porosity.

To be fair, actually granite is not the second hardest material after diamond. Most granite mainly consist of quartz mineral, with other minerals as secondary mineral (biotite, pyrite, muscovite, etc). If you look at the mohs scale (mineral hardness scale), you can see that quartz fall at no 4. But all top 3 minerals are not as abundant as quartz, which classified them as precious stones.

Any granite is not EASILY scratch. But all granite CAN be scratch, just you really need to put pressure on it.

Becareful when using marble as your kitchen top, cos oil can seep into it.
