One of the IDs I consulted recommended the LG Hi-macs (from Korea). Anyone used this before?

Yes LG Hi MAC is excellent for kitchens that are heavily used. I don't have a single scratch in 5 years and is very resistant to heat. They have a huge variety of colors some more. can visit their store in Sungei Kadut.

The price is about 140/m I think, the one with backsplash

Solid surface comes in many type of materials...

1. Postform (plywood with laminate)

2. Solid wood (polished and lacquer)

3. Polyester/Acrylic mixed

4. 100% Polyester

5. 100% Acrylic

6. Natural Stone (Granite/Marble/Limestone)

7. Stainless Steel

8. Quartz

If you are looking for low maintenance, heat resistance, stain resistance, scratch resistance and chip resistance, then only Quartz fit the bill. I only use the brands (CaesarStone and SilesStone) i trusted. They are available in premium and non-premium range; various thickness (the thicker the more $); they can be quite expensive $180 pfr for non-premium and $280 pfr for premium range.

If your kitchen cabinet is 10 feet in length, most if not all solid surface will come in 2 pieces. However some materials can be polish until cannot see and cannot feel the join line.

I am using CaesarStone 2141 Fresh White Quartz (20mm) for my kitchen, total of 16 feet, $4000. If you are quoted by ID, expect to pay more. My longest kitchen cabinet is 9 feet, the Quartz solid surface comes in 2 pieces and installers use resin epoxy to join them together, can see and feel the join line.
