1. I like the color and sturdiness of the coasters and you get plenty, but the
   wood trim design is very rough- we're planning on sanding and restaining them.



2. I hadn't even gotten all the plastic off it when it broke. The wall glue came completely undone and it disintegrated in my hands. Bought two, so I thought I might have been rough with the first one. Nope. Second one did the same thing even though I was even gentler than before. Sent it right back the same day and was credited my refund quickly. Bought more expensive sandstone coasters with the oak pedastal holder and love them so much more.



3. These coasters are so nice that I ordered a second set for my home as soon as I opened the package.



4. These coasters are beautiful and very functional. They are so pretty on the coffee table.



5. These coasters are functional and attractive enough.
   
   The good: Glasses wont stick to these coasters. The circular grooves help break the water tension and prevent sticking.
   
   I like how they look, and the holder is nice.
   
   The less good: The finish on them is pretty rough. It appears as if they didn't do any sanding after the grooves/rings were cut, so they have a pretty rough/cheap looking finish
   
   It would be nice if there was some sort of felt on the bottom of the coasters to ensure they wont scratch furniture. Not that I've had any problems yet, it would just be a nice extra touch.

1. I probably should have figured this out before I made the purchase, but glass is an extremely bad material for a coaster. The water under your glass will glue it to the coaster, so the coaster comes up with the glass unless you either hold the coaster down or slide the glass to the side instead of pulling up. Also, the water drips off of your glass onto the coaster and just builds there until it slides off onto the table below. If it doesn't, it goes into the pictures you've put inside. Cork or wood would have been a lot better.
   
   The pictures are held in place by an extremely flimsy piece of paper-thin plastic that's tacked on with a few pieces of putty. With care, they will stay on, but it's very easy to take them off.

1. These are a good value for the money. I needed some coasters for my office/bedroom while our house is being remodeled and I wanted something that wasn't boring. They have a nice metal face with the cute designs and a "corkboard" bottom. I keep one on both desks and one on the nightstand, the other lives in the cute tin that came with it.

1. I received these as a mother's day gift and was very happy with them. They do have a few smudges/scratches which might bother you if you are very particular. However I found once I put my photos inside, I hardly noticed these.
   My photo printing software prints a 5.5Cm X 4.5Cm print which I found worked perfect in these coasters. I cut around the print with the 7Cm X 5Cm template that came in one of the coasters. This left a very small boarder (.25Cm) on 2 sides of picture, which doesn't show once inserted into the coasters. In the other direction (7Cm length), I left no boarder on one side, and a 1.5Cm boarder on the other side. This centered the photos perfectly, and left a long strip that extended out far enough that I can easily grab hold of it and remove the photos to replace them with new ones. It seems to work equally well with vertical or horizontal photos. This method also seems to eliminate the problem of the photos moving around inside the coasters. I thought it might be difficult to get the right size photos and get them centered, but it didn't take me long to get this figured out.
   I take lots of photos, and this is a unique way to display some of them.



2. I was looking for a very unique gift to "personalized" for an artist/photographer friend. I bought several sets. One set I filled with black & white photos, the other color. The artist has actually spread these coasters throughout their home, i.e. one under drinking glass in bathroom, several on end table in guest room. These are well made and make a great presentation. Also used as office gift and filled with co-workers photos as memento. I will purchase more of these as need arises!



3. 5 seconds after removing these from the box I have already decided they're never going on my coffee table. First, the "wood" holder is badly chipped and there are bits of black paint all over the coasters. But worse, the coasters themselves (which are tools meant to protect the finish of a table, if I'm not mistaken) have a metal backing with a fairly sharp edge underneath where the photo goes. It doesn't take a genius to recognize that within a few days of regular use that metal edge would cause all sorts of damage to a table much worse than a ring of moisture ever would, despite the tiny rubber feet on the bottom. As a test I found that I was easily able to shave the finish off a corner of an old table with no effort at all. Glad I only paid $10 since I'm sure I'll never get my money back.



4. I would give these 0 stars if I could.
   
   It is pretty difficult to get the photos in & out of these and if you drop them or hit them together at all, the sides will chip and due to the nature of the glass, fixes are easily seen.
   
   I would not recommend these for a house with children or where things get dropped at all!



5. I purchased these coasters and a similar set. I don't care for these at all. They are cheaply made- the pics slide into a metal piece on the back. Mine arrived chipped and scratched. And the "mat" around the picture isn't a mat at all, it's just painted glass- which easily comes off. The space for the photo is small, as well.

1. these are wonderful. and look very nice with my furniture, and they do not let the glasses drip and ruin my tables.



2. This set of coasters is a very good value. I believe it to be the largest set of coasters available(if number is important to you). They aren't fancy, but nice, and very durable. They certainly fit the bill for my needs and I would highly recommend them to anyone.



3. These coasters met our approval. They are very nice and well worth the money, the holder is a plus.



4. This set is great for families with kids who want to protect their furniture while still maintaining a casual atmosphere. They're sturdy and safe for the little ones to use and even have a ridged surface so that your glasses don't stick as the condensation begins to form. The wood edges are rounded and don't scratch surfaces. These are also great if you're on a tight budget or if you just prefer the natural look.
   
   I've had my set for nearly 6 years and am now replacing it (I have young children so things often get replaced over time) for a new set. Things to be cautious of: (1) Make sure that you don't stack the coasters in the caddy until they are COMPLETELY dry or you may wind up with mold embedded into the ridged surface. (2) Also, the holder is nice but ours had to be re-glued after a few years due to children playing with it.

1. I am very happy with this product! The coasters, including the stand, are pretty enough to sit anywhere as a decor and, being glass, they are very easy to clean. I also like the sounds they make when I put mugs and glasses down on them.



2. These are really nice for the price. The only thing I don't like about them is when your using a glass glass they tend to want to stick to it.



3. The coaster looks nice, BUT a glass will actually stick to the coaster. I've actually walked half-way across a room and then all of a sudden, without noticing, the glass coaster falls to the floor because it stuck to the glass. I will not be purchasing any glass coasters in the future.

1. They look great. I'm scouting for photos of my kids to put in them. Like them a lot.

2 comments about Scroll Coaster Set (Black) (1.75"H x 4.5"W).

1. As an earlier reviewer mentions, these are an excellent set of coasters. Made of a soft, rubber like material, they will not damage your table surface or floor and are pretty much indestructible.
   
   Would like to add that they are available for a better price at Bed Bath and Beyond.



2. I own several sets and bought two sets for friends of ours. I love my coasters! They do not stick to the bottom of your glass, the kids can drop them, the babies even like to chew on them. On the weekends we have several couples (children included) over for board games and cards. These coasters go through a lot! The best feature is that they do not damage your table or floor. We have a wood table and wood floors and ceramic tile coasters or stone coasters dent and scratch the wood. These are soft and never leave a mark. I could not imagine ever using anything else.

1. Lightning speed delivery and better than described. Life is good Thanks and have a good one.



2. I actually sent this back. The color was lighter than pictured-too reddish. While the design seemed fine, the one I received had a number of cracks in it. It appeared to have been cracked during production, and they just went ahead and stained it. So, sloppy workmanship would be my overall impression.

3 comments about Cinnabar Thirstystone Drink Coaster Stone Set/4.

1. This product arrived quickly. It looks really nice! I love that they are heavy and don't stick to the bottom of the glass everytime you lift your cup. Really nice product!



2. Coaster soaks up any condensation from glasses, and is heavy enough not to stick to the bottom of glass. Only complaint is that it leaves a sandy residue on my tabletop.



3. The coasters are high quality and beautiful. They were sent quickly and without any problems.
