16 Pack Absorbent Cork Coasters Round Edge with Holder – Premium Coaster Set 4 inches – Perfect to Protect Your Furniture, Heat Resistant – Best for Cold Drinks, Wine Glasses, Cups & Mugs

A lot of times you'll see packaging making outrageous claims. "Lasts forever!" and stuff like that. In this case, it's absolutely true.Among the litany of features one would expect from coasters - durability, absorbency, protecting furniture -- the package proclaimed that "KIDS LOVE THEM!"And it's true. Once word got out that I had some new coasters, there was a line up our driveway full of children -- some who didn't even live in our city -- who'd heard about these amazing coasters and stopped by to have a look. The only problem was getting them to leave so others could have a turn admiring these glorious coasters.Would buy again.

Are you looking for a set of cheap coasters that'll last for a decent amount of time? Look literally anywhere else. Looking for easily breakable cork for wargaming bases or terrain projects? These will work wonders.The coasters can be easily broken by hand, with even light bending opening cracks down the middle. For their intended purpose this is pretty awful but it makes working with them as a craft supply a breeze. They're also quite thin, meaning you can get a high degree of detail when layering them for sandstone outcroppings. The smooth top and sides sand away quite easily, meaning you can get very nice texture for less effort and wasted material than tougher corkboard.

For the price, you can’t beat these. The coasters themselves work great and I have them everywhere around the house. No more water marks!! Oh and because the coasters are made of cork, cups quietly sit on the table. Great if you’re trying to keep it down or don’t want to damage your surfaces.The only gripe I have is the stand which doesn’t sit flat on the table and it’s not easy load the coasters. However, if you have the coasters all over the house like I do, there isn’t really a need for it. Overall great purchase.

The media could not be loaded.  I literally just received them today so I haven’t used them yet to test the absorbency. They came packaged & wrapped nicely. I like the coasters & the stand that comes with it. However when I tested the flexibility of one of the coasters it cracked. So I am disappointed with that. However I still plan on keeping them & stenciling them. So I will have to post an update later.

T-H-I-C-K !!If you were to look at the comparisons most of the other cork coasters how much thinner. These are thick and the dispensing bracket this is all so well built and presentable enough to leave out. These can be used for coasters. Although I've also use them under heavy art pieces as surface protectors.VERY GOOD QUALITY. The cork is dense, the edges are well finished off. And I do not see these "pitting" or falling apart.

Amazing quality, premium disks.Was expecting something cheap and flimsy but I have to say. I am truly impressed.As an avid user of coasters. spoiler I am a bit of a neat freak here, but these are well worth every penny.A++ can easily recommend and best of all I know these will last a while.

The media could not be loaded.  I was in between about to buy ceramic coasters - they are so beautiful and colorful, and cork - so natural and water absorbing. Made a choice for cork ones and I am so happy with that. It does keep the liquid from leaking on table or bar. We have a big porch bar station and such big amount of coasters is great, so the bottle opener is mega useful too - thanks!

This is a nice little set, especially for the price. It came with a black holder; it's very easy to get the coasters in and out of the holder. The coasters are generously sized, even with very wide mugs and jugs (we use large-mouthed Mason jars as water glasses). It also came with a cute little keyring bottle opener. If you are looking for a coaster set, please consider this.
