Granite vs. Soapstone
Granite and soapstone are two different types of stone that are often used in kitchens. Granite is a hard, durable material that can be found in many colors. Each slab of granite is unique to its color and mix, so each slab will have a different look. Though it has an elegant appearance, because it comes in many colors that are pleasing aesthetically for the kitchen countertops, it is often used as a material.
Soapstone is softer than granite and also comes in various colors, but it cannot withstand the same level of heat as granite. Soapstone, while soft and typically rough in nature, can easily be cut or shaped with specific tools. A good household cleaner will do the trick if you are able to clean right away. The key is that soap stone is porous and due to this characteristic, it often stains from liquids caught within the material.
