Just a thought....if you change it now, in 5-6 years when you want to sell your house, it will be out-of-date because the preferred styles, materials and colors will have changed by then and you'll have to do it over or sell your house for less. Any chance you can wait 3 or 4 years before re-doing it?

Sorry, but I disagree. Granite will probably continue to be a mainstay as far as counters go. And it goes without saying there are always going to be people who won't like the material no matter what it is or what is current. Most people prefer stainless......I prefer black appliances. Will I change to stainless just to sell? No. But they will be newer. Will I change my granite counters to sell? No. Not as long as they are in good condition. If you want to remodel, remodel with what YOU want to live with for the next 5 or 6 years.

ITA with you! i can't imagine granite every going out of style! of course trends will always make something else the new "it"! i also have black appliances and i love them! i just love walking into my kitchen and seeing how beautiful and shiny they are. my home is decorated the way i want it because i live here. what someone else has in their home or what someone has chosen as the "new" look does not matter to me.

I love this company. We did the kitchen in our former home. The consultant helped us choose the right counter and backsplash combo and we were soooo impressed with the installation and product! Loved that there was NO demolition and done in a day after it had all been measured and templated. We used them in our current home for our bathroom counters and recommend them every chance we can. The price was a LOT cheaper than granite, so just a lot of positives for us.

I'd put in new appliances rather than countertops as a ""selling feature""...........

We also got a quote from Granite Transformations a few months ago when we were looking to replace our countertops. We were not impressed. The choices of colors were not as wide or as nice looking as granite. The price was more expensive than the granite we did put in. I must say, I was surprised by that. My granite was done in 5 hours complete with demolition, granite, new sink, faucet, and garbage disposal. My kitchen is not small either.
