Granite

Most people, when they think of granite, believe that it is the ideal surface material. It is true that granite does a fairly good job of resisting staining, but still it is porous and does require frequent sealing. .

Marble

While some marble can be very hard and vitreous, like granite or ceramic tile, much marble can be easily scratched and stained. Because of its tendency to stain and scratch, marble countertops  is not always the most practical choice. Not only that, marble is so porous and absorbent that it will soak up stains that are almost impossible to clean. However, with proper sealing and maintenance, marble can be made to work for countertops

Quartz

The chief benefit of the quartz countertop is its natural luster. Whereas pure polymer-based solid surface countertops such as Corian have a hard time achieving a deep, three-dimensional appearance, it's easy for quartz countertops to have this because of their natural appearance. Also, quartz is extremely hard and makes for a good work surface. When dealing with natural slab granite you're going to have a lot more problems with potential cracks and staining than you will with quartz. Also, the installers have a bit easier time dealing with quartz than they do with granite because it is a more forgiving material for fabrication
