Quartz vs Sintered Stone

 

Aesthetics

Quartz offers more color variety, while sintered stone has a more natural, stone-like finish.

Durability

Sintered stone is better for heat resistance, while quartz is highly durable but less heat-tolerant.

Maintenance

Both are low-maintenance and non-porous, but sintered stone excels in stain and heat resistance.
