Are all Quartz worktops made equal?

Hi folks. We currently have granite worktops which I love in many ways. It’s robust, heat resistant and has been pretty much bomb-proof. Almost 16 years on and it still looks as good as new. BUT I hate the darkness!!! Periodically I look at changing it to a Carrara style quartz. Yesterday I filled in an online quote for Silestone - it was expensive! Today the company called to tell me that they have a few other quartz that look similar but come in over £1k cheaper. The one they were recommending is called Cosy Stone. Has anyone heard of them? Are premium quartz such as Silestone and Caeserstone worth the significantly higher price tag? (PS - this is from a very reputable quartz and granite supplier). Any informed opinions would be very welcome!!
Also - if anyone has had experience of replacing granite worktops - did it cause much damage, or was it straightforward? Thanks.
