I don't have granite. But don't sell Heloise short! I've read "care articles" before regarding granite and they seem to follow what Heloise said. I think the sealing is key to most issues. Placing hot pans on it? I have heard of an instance where someone did that and the granite cracked. I don't remember where I heard about this and the details but something to think about. Corian does require care too. I think I've read where it can be "sanded" every so often to take care of scratches. I for one think I'd do the silestone if I made a change. As with anything...ALL surfaces have some kind of care involved. Maybe the concrete countertops would be something to look into! (????)
