I feel like I was cheated since the description states that the counter is "MARBLE" -- It is NOT marble or stone, it is a faux laminate plastic-like surface.   I saw in the Q & A the company telling a client you can put hot pots on the surface, but I'm pretty sure it would melt.    
I was looking for maximum durability for a furnished rental, with a surface that could last forever.   The moment the counter gets damaged, I will have to replace it.   
It looks good, but I feel the description was not honest.
