Concrete Kitchen Countertop: Pros and Cons
In addition to its stylish appearance, concrete has other advantages over other materials.
Concrete is a more affordable material when compared to natural and even artificial stone. And this is not to mention its durability and practicality, because spilled water will not bother it, unlike chipboard and MDF.
Concrete combines well with other materials, which is why models with inserts of colored glass or wood are so popular.
However, concrete countertops also have their downsides. For example, it is believed that concrete surfaces are difficult to maintain due to their porosity, so cleaning out all the dirt that has accumulated is often a difficult task.
Also, unlike quartz materials, concrete is less durable and may develop cracks and chips over time.
