Hello,

we received a quote for our kitchen.

The kitchen has the following features: Nobilia white high-gloss, handleless.
All wall cabinets open upwards.
The rest mainly consists of drawers and few cabinet doors (and one corner cabinet).

We decided on a granite countertop. What are your experiences with granite countertops?
We only know advantages, with price being the only downside.

All appliances are Siemens IQ700. What do you think of them? They should be good quality, right?
Induction cooktop, 80 or 90 cm (31 or 35 inches)?

Thank you very much for your opinions.

Quartz stone has already been mentioned. In my opinion, it is the best compromise overall.
Ceramic is also very good, but it is quite expensive and can be a bit more prone to chipping due to its brittleness.

We requested quotes for quartz stone and ceramic, and we need a total of 5.4m² (58ft²).

Quartz stone costs €3900 and ceramic €5900.

Quite expensive... And our kitchen supplier only credits €500 for removing the standard countertop.

I’m torn because for us, only ceramic would be an option. It’s really great...

Frustrating...
