We bought our sintered stone countertops from China for under $10,000. Would I recommend it? Honestly, only if you’re ready for a lot of stress and uncertainty. We flew to Foshan, visited a big showroom, and picked slabs at just SGD$75 each. They can also custom-cut them for you — perfect for precise sizes. 
DIY cost us $7,000 vs $17,000 quoted by our ID. Saved $10,000 and got exactly what we wanted — hassle included. 
We went for a “quiet luxury” vibe with natural, creamy tones: travertine for the kitchen island, cream for the dry pantry, sand-look for the kitchen tabletop, and textured cream for the laundry. We ordered 12 slabs, over 100kg in total, and paid extra to get them safely moved up to our unit. Some holes were pre-cut in China; others cut by hand here.

A mistake we made: using powder grout that fell out quickly. We had to switch to epoxy grout later!
