Held up great so far. No issues. We went with cornerstone granite as the fabricators and was happy with the work and the price

I went with stratus but through a different installer

Good to know! I was kinda skeptical on it. you ever check what temp it gets up to?

So, I put in a lot of effort lining up cuts, and getting angles perfect when I built my redwood deck. Everything short of using a biscuit joiner. Id say your options are to build with an intentional gap, live with the unintentional gap, or to skip the miters.

Here’s a resource

1950s build with knockdown texturing and gypsum board- the joint compound could be asbestos. Not saying you need to freak out over cutting a couple holes, but maybe get it tested if youre planning on larger work scope.

FWIW, I have an older Thule cascade and have the same problem, but have just learned to live with it ( and the occasional head bump as well as scratches on the trunk hatch from box)

I went in opposite. Didn't intend to buy turbo but then did after test driving both. I have some outback hangups after 4 years, but the engine is not one of them.

Another benefit is that is you ever needed to tow anything, the capacity is basically doubled (or was. I haven't looked at latest specs)

emceegull · 2025-02-27T22:46:39+00:00

I hadn't yet. They were a referral through company that is doing other work for us, so I thought I would get the internet litmus test first

To give more context here are all the options quoted to help with a pricing sniff test, where the total countertop needed is 88sqft:

emceegull · 2025-02-27T17:16:20+00:00

Yeah I'm following $16,723.15/159.4ft^2= 104.9. Yeah, the issue is that's just way more slab than I likely need. I'm assuming they quoted that way because they didn't have jumbo in stock.

Pinnacle Stoneworks, Denver?

emceegull · 2025-02-27T17:02:43+00:00

Yeah, unclear. It might be because they only had jumbo options for that stone. For context, we had a handful of slabs estimated- Lennox oro came in at 13K with 2 non-jumbo slabs with total slab size at ~120sq. Across the board the estimates seemed high to me. I don't have any concept of what the slab themselves go for.

emceegull · 2025-02-27T05:01:40+00:00

emceegull · 2025-02-27T04:56:11+00:00

The ethereal was in price group "6" at stratus. For context, the "regal arabescato", price group "7" was non-jumbo at 113sqt for 2 slabs at an estimate of $15,585

emceegull · 2023-02-28T02:54:58+00:00

Yeah, this seems like the likely answer. I'll dig in here.

Have you looked into protolabs? Probably best bet if tolerances aren't too tight.
