    Hi all: I would like to hear from those of you with marble counters. What are your experiences? I
    presently have Brazilian Green granite and wanted to compare the two for durability , cost,
    staining etc etc. I will be building another kitchen and am trying to decide ...light white/grey
    granite or carrera marble for counters. Island to be another colour granite or material. Any help
    appreciated, Aileen

    I don't have marble or granite countertops, but marble is *much* less durable than granite. It is
    etched or stained by acids, and it is softer than granite.

    You might also look into "soapstone" for a countertop material.

    Best regards, Bob

    There is a concrete product out there that actually looks nice, comes in various shades and
    coloring. That is quite reasonably priced. And easily repaired.
