We went with PolyStone only because I got a buy at the Scottsdale Air Park ,Meganite was a good option too.Wilsonart has a lot of options and they will sell direct to you with the installation manual.
The draw back to Corian like we used in the Eagle they do not sell to the public it is bought through a dealer and they charge the hell out of you to fabricate and install it lol I remember I paid $800 just for the sink

I have to vote for granite, slate or marble. I'm in the process of re-doing...everything. When I get to the kitchen, I'll use some kind of natural stone :)

Hello: My wife said let's start inexpensive, we can always upgrade, so we ordered standard Formica round over (her choice matched sink) from Menards. 1- 5-1/2' piece (stove area) and 1- 6' piece (sink area) total around $100. I'm sure when she finds "the one" we'll be changing over. Good Luck Gerry H

We currently have Corian, but are looking at upgrading to a combination of either granite, tile, and/or stainless steel. I've seen some really nice custom SS kitchen upgrades.

Formica here, 38 years and still there, some scratches & knife marks and continues to serve us well...

Corian here, The nice thing about it is if it gets scratched up you can rebuff and make it look like new again. Jason

Formica from Lowell's. Stone and Corian are really good looking but very expensive and heavy. I looked at Corian but when they said $1000.00 for a 6' counter and then extra for the two small pieces on either side of my stove I said thank you but now way. My counters, new stainless sink, new faucet and all the tile back splash cost me around $500. Your budget will determine what you go with.

Granite with full backsplash and undermount sink.A little more but well worth the price.

Wifey and I decided to go with granite with a under mount sink,wow, nothing out there adds a little bling like granite, go for it!

Mike, the Habitat for Humanity in the Phoenix area have tons of natural stone and Corian counter tops that you can make work with little effort.
You know the Scottsdale and Paradise Valley people remodel their kitchens every few years because they get tired of looking at the same kitchen lol then they eat out everyday
