We put a total 35 feet of granite in our kitchen & bar top 3 years ago. We spend a lot of time in our kitchen and at the bar with no issues of staining, as for the sealing goes it's takes about an hour every six months. One of the best decisions thus far with the upgrades we've made to our home. Granite is the only way to go IMO.
