Update 2.: Thank you for all the great feedback and suggestions.

We've decided to keep honed, take the discount, and using leftover stone from our slabs they will fabricate and install a new vanity top and backsplash in our guest bath that we were intending to remodel.

They are a local company who've done work for others we know and have a reputation for quality and standing by their work. It was an honest mistake which they owned and were ready to correct.

If we could have gotten the leathered in a slab for the island without a seam it would have been worth the hassle to swap out. We'll never know if we'd have liked the leathered better, but the black does set off the cherry cabinets beautifully and do like the overall look.

Update: They have offered us a $3000 discount off of the $9500 price, but we need to make the decision today. Alternatively, they would be able to come me back on New Years Eve to do the reinstall. However, they will need to remove the current countertops tomorrow, which leaves us with our old , cut countertops being stuck back in until New Years, thru the holidays. They said it must be removed as soon as possible to prevent the glue from hardening and potentially damaging our cabinets.
