How did you even find that?

Who is that guy? Who cares what he thinks? Shouldn't you be writing CNC programs?
I love telling customers how no one "owns" granite and quartz companies are businesses and everything on TV is an advertisement so naturally HGTV shows promote those companies that advertise and pay for influence......you can see the moment when I am still giving my 5 sentence HGTV quartz analysis and they connect the dots before I finish it, you can see it in their face. It is like a "duh" moment and from there my final sentence of "get what will make you the happiest in your house" is how they end up selecting a countertop, which is how everyone should select a countertop.

Man, we got a call on it within 5 minutes of it airing on TV today. So I went on website and they had the video already uploaded.

Hey fellas. Please send these people the link where Mark L cooks a steak on granite. There was another HGTV or DIY show where granite and ES where tested side by side for heat and strength. The ES failed the test when a hot frying burned the binder.

This was an obvious infomercial for Caesarstone. Shameful!

yea they never say how easy it is to permantly damage ES beyond repair after 1 hot pot
and or how ES cracks from heat of crock pot
I am still at a loss for a good word to describe what it is like after how much effort and research is put into the sealing of stone and a lot of stone don't even need to be sealed anyhow. Yet someone (anyone off the street) can come along and say " granite needs to be sealed every six months " and they the clients believe them , even after all the education we put in up front before and during the sale
8 years so far fabricating all kinds of stone and only 1 call for a stain and that was ghibli 7 years ago it was easily removed at no cost to the client
we personally have a Travertine shower surround and walls installed 4 years ago and still have not got around to sealing it , still looks like they day we put it in
someone once said
If you tell a lie long enough loud enough and often enough the people will believe it. . .

Did they mention if it warps or if it sunbleaches? I have an Outdoor kitchen to do in Texas full sun. Is this the product to use?

You can't put ES in full sun, it will lose all color.
