What is Caesarstone?
Manufacturers carefully choose the materials to formulate their Caesarstone countertops. They choose from the best quartz, mix it with a binder, bake it, and then polish it to a pristine shine. Of all the quartz options, Caesarstone offers the widest variety of colors.
What are the Pros of Caesarstone?
- Depending on your specifications, manufacturers can work Caesarstone into various shapes, including curves.
- Because it’s nonporous, you don’t have to worry about resealing or applying polishes. You don’t fear that bacteria may be festering under the surface, either.
- Caesarstone’s durability rivals natural stone.
- It resists staining, etching, and scratching.
It’s low-maintenance. Wipe it clean daily. - When you buy Caesarstone, you support American businesses. The FDA ensures that your countertops are non-toxic and food safe!
What are the Cons of Caesarstone?
- It is not heat resistant, so use pot holders or trivets to hold your hot pots and pans.
- Harsh and abrasive cleaners can damage the binder.
- You can’t use Caesarstone outdoors because the warranty does not cover damage from UV light.
- While incredibly durable, Caesarstone chips if it comes in contact with sharp objects.
How to Care and Maintain Caesarstone
- Avoid harsh cleansers. Wipe down with mild soap and water.
- Avoid setting hot dishes on your countertops, as these can cause discoloration.
- Avoid cutting foods directly on the counter. Use a cutting board to prevent chipping.
