Anyone have problems with glass breaking or sharp edges? We've got a curious little one.

No problem with the glass. The edges are like any other type of furniture; that is, adults should have no issues but a child could meet head to edge if running and not paying attention. Sharp is a relative term but insofar as furniture, I'd say 'no' these are not particularly 'sharp' at all.

We have 10 grandchildren who visit often & have had no problems. As with anything glass though, it would break if it was struck hard enough.

We have been washing ours in the dishwasher, and on two of the glasses, we've noticed there is a crack that runs all the way from the top to the bottom. It isn't leaking, and the crack doesn't appear to go all the way through the glass, but I thought it should be mentioned.

It's glass, I've bought two of these. If you accidentally knock it down, such as off the refrigerator or freezer shelf, it will land face down and the glass will shatter. Then you'll know it's glass, because you'll need to clean up the sharp shards.

No problems. There are no sharp edges and this has not been a problem with my grandson who is also crawling around, pulling himself up, etc. I continue to be very happy with this item!

I also saw the reviews that said the glasses could break spontaneously and was concerned. I decided to take a chance as the reviews were several years old. So far I have had no problems and the glasses have been great. They stack nicely in the cupboard. I have had 1 break but it hit the side of the sink so it was not due to spontaneous shattering. Hope you have the same experience if you decide to buy them.

Glass, but not the toughest glass around.Be delicate with this kitEdit: im pretty sure its glass due to the way it cracked, just my guess.

Opps, I did not know about an issue with glass top stovea. I've been using mine without any problems whatsoever. My stove is one of the newer models so maybe they have improved over the years.

Yes I am having the same issues. I have replaced it twice. I wrote the manufacturer and they sent me a new base. But they are not lasting more than 3 months. They told me that they make quality products. I believe they need to go to a glass with metal base.

I used some sharp scissors and didn't have too much of a problem. They are tough, but they are good for my little ones. I did buy the larger size so I couild split them for the same reason you stated. I think you will be pleased with them.

I've seen this on mine (over a year old) when I use a typical glass cleaner - I believe the cleaner residue is the issue.I generally clean and then finish with simple vinegar/water solution to remove the residue every few months.

Hello Carol, no trick. Ours was fairly easy for awhile, then got very stiff. I think that's what may have caused our to crack, try to twist it to turn off. How long have you had yours?

I had no such problem with either of the 2 tables I ordered (at separate times). You may have to exchange yours. Mine are 1 piece and there's no way the glass could be separated from the table. Sounds like a defect by the manufacturer to me. But I know you'll love yours if this problem is taken care of.

I honestly don't know... All I can tell you is that we have had the glass on our kitchen table for over a year, and it has been a perfect replacement for the one we broke by accident. I would try to contact the manufacturer if this is important for you. We have had no issues with ours though- that is all I can tell you... Hope this is helpful.....

Haven't had that problem. However, you could likely take a pair of pliers and "squeeze" to help it fit better (if it's the bottom part - under the glass)
