[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]thank you for all the advice. Yes, that is the vanity. The corian cilantro is a very gray green...but I am convinced now it won't work. I don't like the cold feel of marble. I thought Corian would work well in a bathroom; it last forever and doesn't get stains; and feels nicer to me. My DH hates Correra marble. [/quote] If it makes you feel better, you're wrong about a few features of Corian. Many version of Corian stain easily. My best friend's mother picked Corian for a kitchen renovation and within a year HATED it. She said anything off color immediately stained it (red wine, tomato sauce) and you had to catch things in minutes or the color would start to seep in. In your bathroom, you won't have those, but you may have makeup or medicines (cough syrup?) that make stain. Also, Corian is soft. We have it in most of our bathrooms. In one bathroom, we have no idea how it happened (when we had houseguests), but someone dragged something across the counter and we now have two gouges in the counter about an inch long. In my mind, it looks like the Xmen comic character, Wolverine, visited our bathroom and left his signature on the counter. I've seen any number of things scratch Corian. You can buff out some of the smaller scratches, but it's a PITA. Corian is a cheap solution that is one step up from Formica, but one step down from regular granite (which is still the medium solution).[/quote]
