REPAIRABLE WORKTOPS

Many people believe granite worktops are the ultimate kitchen worktop surface available, but they'd not necessarily be right.

Don't get me wrong, compared to laminate, it's as tough as old boots, but it's not entirely indestructible.  Wine, lemon, vinegar will all eat granite for breakfast.  Granite can also be chipped and scratched if you're determined or unlucky enough. 

Of course you can put a hot saucepan down on granite, whereas it would utterly destroy a laminate top.  So what can you do if you want a worktop more durable, but cheaper, than granite?  How would you like a repairable worktop?  I'm guessing a lot of people with children have just started paying a lot more attention to this article.
