Kitchen worktop dilemma

[1AMnight]

I'm in the middle of kitchen renovation and trying to find worktop supplier . We'd like to go for solid surface worktop.
What would you recommend other then corian? Who would you recommend to supply/ fit it?

TIA

Silestone. We used Rock Revelations, they work all over the country

Quartz - have / have had a number of brands and all brilliant. Do a ring round your local suppliers. Also if you don't need massive lengths / island piece, go and see what offcuts they have. That's what I did for a previous (smaller) kitchen, the price is usually discounted.

Silestone or alternative quartz product over Corian any day.

Would get Matt not shiny finish. Had both, shiny always looked dirty unless I spent ages wiping down.

Thank you so much for all your comments.
We'll have rather wide island. Would quartz/silestone be seamless? Are the joints visable?
