Best countertops?

Hi, southernbelle2008!

I assume when you say comparable, you are thinking granite-like? Like some of the engineered substances? At this thread:
http://messageboards.ivillage.com/iv-hgfirsthome/message.asp?webtag=iv-hgfirsthome&msg=2852.2

there is a comparison of different countertop materials and this source says that engineered stones are roughly half the price of granite

and this resource:
http://www.kitchenbathideas.com/product/countertops/countertopschart.html?sssdmh=dm17.308320&esrc=nwkbi41

directly compares a number of countertop materials for maintenance issues, DIY-friendliness and cost.

Hope this helps... Please let us know if there's more we can answer for you!
