[quote=Anonymous]I'm in the midst of planning a lower-budget renovation and have been surprised to find that granite is actually cheaper than just about every other option (including some hardwoods) == the only exceptions seem to be the Ikea butcher block (which gets great reviews from what I've seen) and laminate. There are evidently lots of cool laminates you can get nowadays that mimic any variety of stone. We have a small kitchen so we're going with granite, but if you end up with laminate, the plus is that you can always upgrade whenever it becomes financially feasible without ripping everything else out (unlike say cabinets - we're going cheaper there and what worries me is that we'll be stuck with them forever!) Good luck.[/quote]
