Getting ready to install some Paperstone in a kitchen we’re remodeling. Anyone have any experience working with it? Opinions about it?
Thanks – Jim

The recipe for linoleum hasn't changed much in nearly 170 years, yet it's still one of the greenest floors money can buy.

Wish I could but have absolutely no experience with it.
Will be anxious to read all you know when you know it.
thanks.
I've installed it once
in a laundry room. It was fabbed by someone down your way after I ordered it thru Environmental Home Center. The finish is very very smooth and somewhat glossy, and if you scratch it you'll be sorry, but otherwise it's a nice product and there are definitely places I'd use it. I do not know how well it will hold up to regular wiping and cleaning, it will probably take a "patina" under those circumstances, and I do not know how well it will hold up with regular exposure to water. The piece I installed was a sink top with an undermount utility sink that rarely gets much use.
Well, it's heavy
I'll tell you guys that.
Went down to the factory in Hoquiam yesterday and picked up a piece 32" x 144" x 1.25" - 290 freakin' lbs.
Reminds me of MDF, but denser, harder.
Jim, if it doesn't work out...
could you make napkins out of it?
Maybe...
...but it'd be pretty hard to fold.
Besides, we switched to cloth napkins a while back. Trying to cut down on paper use, you know.
Pretty much stopped doing any paperwork at all. Kind of nice.
There's some paperwork you don't WANT to get rid of: http://blog.m3.com/LFH/files/nojobfig.jpg
