Legs with sand-blasted, anodized or stainless steel surfaces look great when they're brand new, but it's often difficult to maintain that look. These surfaces scratch easily, and such scratches tend to be permanent. By contrast, legs with a high-quality powder coat finish more effectively retain their appearance. What's more, powder coating is exceptionally cost-effective. Appearance dovetails with durability, a fundamental concept in your assessment of these systems.
Top construction comes to mind immediately.
They're easily cleaned and resist superficial scratching. Vinyl edging for tops is similarly effective. A variety of shapes and sizes is a tremendous asset. Crescents, arches, ellipses and other configurations let you create working environments that simply couldn't happen with rectangular, round and oval-shaped tops. By complementing these traditional shapes with more novel forms, you have a full range of practical, interesting and exciting possibilities at your disposal.
