4 year old cracked Corian! by ginger0194 ,Mar 12 '07
Pros: looks great upon installation Cons: despite their claims, it cracks!!
My Corian counter began to crack about 2 years after installation. The crack is now HUGE, and since I have lost my receipt, and Home Depot will not look up the receipt (it is now approx. 5 years old) I am stuck with a cracked $4000 counter. I will not try again
Pros: Great selection. Really nice surface. Looks beautiful. Cons: It cracks for no apparent reason.
I had my corian installed almost 5 years ago by a local installer. I was pleased with the installation and have really enjoyed how it looks and it's durability until it cracked. The first crack occured at a seam line- somewhat understandable- and corian was prompt at sending someone to fix it (it's warrantied for 10 years). You could not see where the crack was when the repairer was done. The second crack happened yesterday- sounded like a large platter was dropped from a height of 30 feet. This time it was my island and the crack is at least 2 feet long! This was out of the blue for no apparent reason. Now I'm worried about all of the little pops I have been hearing for the last few months coming from my sink area (which is also corian). Overall, my opinion is guarded.
Pros: Good size, very versatile--use as a serving tray as well. Cons: None--it's the best
After I purchased this product, all of my family and friends wanted one. They saw how beautiful Corian was and how easy it cleaned. And it's non-porous.
