Hi guys, I am looking for granite for my kitchen top. I came across a granite which i really like. However according to the sales person, its a man made granite (made in china). I am a bit skeptical about the quality. Has anyone here used it before? Thanks in advance

its not solid surface bro. i have a sample with me right now. will post up a picture later. it looks and feel exactly like granite. its slightly lighter than granite though QUOTE(enriquelee @ Sep 21 2011, 08:58 AM) I think it is a solid surface hard top. Quit commonly use in the market now. Good quality one come from Korea or Germany. Added on September 21, 2011, 12:16 pmthats my biggest concern,durability. i am worried that its not as long lasting as natural granite. QUOTE(xecton @ Sep 21 2011, 09:07 AM) There are man-made granite and there are solid surface top. The two of them are not the same. Now, I'm not an expert here, but I would venture to say that man-made granite is not as durable as granite. I've never seen a broken granite top before, but I've seen broken man-made granite before. But then again, I think it is more than enough to withstand a normal kitchen use. This post has been edited by jags: Sep 21 2011, 12:16 PM
