Pros and Cons of Quartz Countertops
Quartz offers excellent durability and convenience for busy kitchens, but comes at a premium price point. The choice often comes down to budget, aesthetic preferences, and how much maintenance you're willing to do.
Pros of Quartz Countertops:

Durability - Extremely hard and scratch-resistant, made from one of the hardest minerals on earth
-
Non-porous - Won't absorb liquids, bacteria, or stains like natural stone can
-
Low maintenance - No sealing required, easy to clean with soap and water
-

-
Wide variety - Available in many colors, patterns, and finishes, including options that mimic natural stone
-
Heat-resistant - Can handle moderate heat exposure better than many other materials
-

Heat sensitivity - Can be damaged by very hot pots and pans placed directly on the surface
-
Heavy - Requires strong cabinet support, professional installation
-
Visible seams - Large installations may require seams that can be noticeable
