    Depends on size...
    paid about 3k recently (last month) for our kitchen which consisted of 4/5 pieces.

    Island: 2.4m by 1.2m
    counter: 2400mm by 600mm
    short counter: 1200 by 600mm
    utility: L shape, 2 separate pieces 1200 by 600, 1500 by 600

    Price included cut outs for 2 double sinks and hob. Upstands (100mm) to the rear of sinks (approx 3.5 linear metres)

    Got quotes up as far as 4k though too.

    Hi do you mind telling me where you for the above from? We're getting quotes of 3k for a much smaller kitchen.

    We paid 3.2k for quartz for a large kitchen from egans in killbeggan. I don't think it's silestone or a well known brand but it looks excellent and it is way cheaper than others I've seen

    hi there... That sound like great value. Getting quoted 500 Euro more for much less area for silestone. Do you know is yours silestone or another brand. Any chance you could PM me the company details. Thanka

    A small bit off topic, but watch out!

    I got a LIGHT (mostly white) QUARTZ top which has staining:

    I wondered why my kitchen installer encouraged / facilitated me to have a separate contract with the stone man. Now that I see the staining trouble, particularly around the sink and drainage channels I'm feeling wiser.
    Talk about staining, and know where contract responsibility lies. Sample test with soggy tea bags etc. Perhaps a darker colour is ultimately less trouble. (my kitchen is about 2 months old).

    Caveat emptor.

    Quartz is stain resistant not stain proof.
