dont think there is much difference between them

[LJ in TX]

they are all about the same in functionality and durability…..but there may be a small difference in price. however we ended up getting Granite at a special installed price of 42 dollars a square foot three years ago from the local Expo Design Center during its grand opening. we love it but I wish we had gotten a lighter color. others may know more about the counter top materials you inquired about .
