For kitchen decoration, the selection of kitchen materials is very important, especially the counter top of kitchen cabinet. Because the counter top of kitchen cabinet is used frequently, it should be wear-resistant and high temperature resistant. Which is better?
A small number of home kitchen cabinets will choose marble as their countertops, because compared with other materials, marble has a high face value and is suitable for high-end kitchen decoration. However, the marble table top is easy to crack and does not prevent corrosion, but the stains are easy to penetrate into the stone, so you should be more careful when cooking.
Most of the kitchen counters in home kitchens will choose artificial quartz stone. Compared with the countertops made of other materials, the countertops have better cost performance. They have both beauty value and moderate price.
The worktops of commercial kitchen cabinets are all made of stainless steel, because stainless steel worktops are not only durable, but also cheap. It’s just that the surface looks lower than that of the two materials above. The disadvantage is that it’s easy to spend.
Solid wood countertops are widely used, especially in the style of log and Japanese decoration. The countertops of kitchen cabinets are made of solid wood materials, which look simple and artistic, and have a strong atmosphere. However, the wood is afraid of frequent changes in temperature and humidity. The biggest enemy is the open fire on the stove, which is easy to cause cracks when cooking. If the table is splashed with water, it should be wiped off immediately to avoid water immersion in the wood. The hot pot just taken off must use a pot pad, otherwise it will directly burn a circle of carbon footprint.
In recent years, Sintered Stone countertops have also become popular. The advantage is antibacterial, antifouling, high temperature resistant, easy to wipe and take care of, and even can be used as a sticky board to cut vegetables on. It can be said that there is nothing wrong with going up the mountain and down the fire. But good is good. The only disadvantage is that the price is too high for ordinary people to afford.
To sum up, quartz stone has excellent performance in durability, beauty, and difficulty in care and maintenance, and is the most cost-effective choice. When selecting quartz table top, it is necessary to note that the content of quartz stone should reach 90% or more. Quartz stone has the highest cost performance, but its market popularity is also high, so it is not suitable for those who like to be independent.
