"I have to say this Onyx is outstanding. Very easy to work with and solid. The shower base is solid and heavy so you won't need any mortar to secure it. The sales force is terrific. I wouldn't hesitate to buy this product again. The finished project looks wonderful. Note: I can send before and after photos if you like. Thanks again for all your support."

"I cannot give high enough praise for this company. The response time for questions is outstanding and the product is beautiful. I renovated my bathroom from top to bottom myself to save money. I ordered the countertop and when it came, it FAR exceeded my expectations!! I had some questions about installing and they returned with immediate response and help and were so kind and helpful. The representative I dealt with was the epitome of what customer service should be!! I love my new countertop!!"
