Kitchen countertops material

We did quartz tops. We like the look but there's always something that "disappears" with the pattern. Camouflaged! The tops are cold to the touch all the time. We were told we'd have a seam along a wall as stock had a limit on length. Our seam would either have ended up in the sink cutout area or 15" to the left. The sink cutout area was not recommended.
After installed they had to come back and polish down the seam as you could hang up dishes sliding them across it.............

Took the guy 4 -5 hours, but it was finished to satisfaction.
