Granite Vs Ceaserstone

I am getting quotes for my new kitchen. I am not able to decide which one to choose. Ceaserstone is in, but few people told me granite is cheap. if you guys have any experience with any of it please let me know?

I need opinions on which one is easy to maintain, stain issues, whether needed any sealing or any other issues that any one experienced??

thanks

I have granite worktops, and they are very durable and easy to look after. I put hot pans and pots straight from the stove on them and they stay absolutely fine.
