Given the popularity of Caesarstone and other engineered or reconstituted stone products, you might assume that they’re the best option for kitchen benchtops. But in reality, there are many aspects of this material that make it a poor choice, and a poor investment for anyone fitting out a new kitchen. Reviewing engineered stone alongside natural stone and porcelain panels products makes its shortcomings all the more apparent.
