Corian countertops prices are generally in the range of $40 to $65 a square foot. Prices do vary around the country. For example, people in the Northwest pay twice as much for Corian countertops than people in the Southwest. Where ever you live, these solid surface countertops are actually more affordable than many realize.
However, that same lack of hardness makes Corian less durable than quartz. It can be burned by a hot pan, scratched by a knife, cracked by dropping something heavy on it, and stained by spills such as tomato sauce or red wine. It is somewhat germ-resistant, but not as much as quartz.
