Corian is a great solution when choosing solid surfaces for multiple reasons. First, Corian is resistant to staining, heat, and is overall very durable. Corian stands up well to abrasive cleaners that would be potentially damaging to other countertops.
Second, Corian surfaces come in a vast array of colors and styles, far more than their granite counterparts. Choosing Corian will allow you to have more styles and colors.
Third, Corian is non-porous. Granite will absorb liquids and stains. Corian surfaces will not. Granite countertops actually need to be treated with a sealant on an annual basis.
The fact that Corian countertops will not absorb liquid will make cleaning less of an issue. Lastly, Corian surfaces are easy to repair and refinish.
