Yes, engineered stone can be used in a kitchen. It is a popular choice for kitchen countertops due to its durability, low maintenance, and wide range of colors and designs. Engineered stone is also resistant to stains and scratches, making it a practical option for a busy kitchen. However, it is important to note that while engineered stone is heat-resistant, it can be damaged by direct heat, so it is best to use trivets or hot pads when placing hot items on the surface.
