Ah, very nice. We looked at Cambria as well. Cambria definitely minis the look of natural stone very well. It was #2 on our list. The thing that tipped us over to the Pental was that they have a warehouse here in Seattle and allow the public to come in and select their slab. Haven't gotten to that point just yet. Should be this week though.

I hear you on the maintenance of natural stone. I found our granite counters in our last kitchen to be impossible to maintain; completely frustrating. There was always this haze on them.

Anyway, the finished product looks great and is inspiring to those of us who are part way through to keep pressing on. All the effort, expense, splinters, bashed fingers, etc. are totally worth it in the end!
