We have the dark brown granite counter tops that were fashionable 20
years
ago. They do NOT stain but are truly impressive at breaking
glassware when
dropped from cabinet height..

We had granite counter tops installed in the kitchen that got the

cabinets. We were only there 5 years, but had no increase in broken
dishes,
and no stains. The granite now is factory impregnated with a sealant
that
is very good. We have had a granite topped table since that last
kitchen
re-do, 13 years now, and it's been totally trouble free, other than
being
rather heavy to move - between 400 and 500 pounds I'd guess.
Any bad press for granite staining is obsolete news.

IMO, granite may be trendy but it's a poor material for a countertop.
Expect to replace a lot of dish and glass ware.
Because we heard of granite's propensity to absorb stains, we
decided to
go with manufactured stone. The one we chose was LG Viatera,
ordered from
Lowe's.
We also had porcelain tile installed on the floor; that was the
source of
some broken dishes, but the counters were not.
