- Quartz is a Very Durable Surface
Almost all of the quartz countertops being installed today is manmade. It is created with natural stone bound with polymer resins. As a result, the surface is almost 100% indestructible. While it can be expensive, quartz often pays for itself by being so strong and for the fact that it is truly built to last.Compared to granite countertops, quartz is much less likely to crack or chip. Most quartz countertops will also come with a warranty, which gives you confident that your countertop is built to last. While we do not recommend doing so on purpose, quartz can stand up to pans being dropped, hairdryers being throw, and much more. - Quartz Countertops Are Low Maintenance
Other stone products, such as granite and marble, or porous. This means that they can readily absorb liquids – which means they can stain. This is not the case with quartz. It is non-porous, which means it is virtually immune to being stained.

All it takes is a simple wipe down to get rid of any bacteria. This is great for people who have allergies or are immune suppressed. - There is a Nearly Unlimited List of Design Possibilities
