Counterpoint: granite countertops. You can’t see when or where they’re dirty.
I do also hate granite countertops. They are ugly! I do keep one granite slab top cart because the cool surface is great for working pastry or chocolate.
Best countertop we ever encountered in a rental was that Corian stuff, I'm sure it terrible for the environment but it was seamless and wonderful. Second place the old old old Formica counters in my old house. Those I could clean with bleach and they survived more than 70 years, so tough.
Granite comes in a myriad of styles. I don't understand the blanket statement. It's literally just a type of stone.
In rentals, it's always a brown gray speckled slab of sadness though.
Yeah, Formica isn’t much to look at, but it sure is functional
