Re: Prediction 2010: Granite Countertops Are So Last Decade

I am remodeling my kitchen and not thrilled with the look of granite, but it seems to be the most functional option out there, and I am leaning toward purchasing it. It's heat resistant, it doesn't stain, and it cleans up beautifully every time. I have two children who love to cook and I don't want to be worried about my countertops. I have looked at all of the other options and can't find a more durable choice. It may be on the way out in terms of style, but it will always be functional, and it's hard to argue with that.
