Hi all! This is WAY overdue (5years for first purchase to be exact) of course I'm sure all parents can relate that its not always easy finding a bit of free time to ourselves. That being said, I noticed a few parents had questions about kitchen countertops. I went with Caesarstone for my kitchen 5years ago and it has held up very well. In fact we just purchased Caesarstone countertops for our bathroom now too. I am a mom of 5 beautiful crazy kids so easy maintenance and cost efficient kitchen remodeling was certainly at the top of my list! Its pretty much chaos in our kitchen every day and I'm so relieved I went with Caesarstone. We have spilled everything imaginable including turmeric, red wine, blueberries (smashed thanks to my toddler) and the list goes on and on. Not to mention I am guilty for accidentally placing hot pans on top of my counter. No stains so far I was able to remove them easily and when the turmeric stain happened I used Bar Keepers Friend that my neighbor recommended and it wiped away clean. We did get one chip when we were moving in the fridge and accidentally slammed it on the corner but luckily they offer a lifetime warranty and we were able to call and they came and repaired it for us. Looks good as new again. I would highly recommend to anyone especially for us busy parents. Its been a big help to have such easy maintenance!
