Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose glass furniture for a dining room?
Glass brings a light, open feel to a dining space, since it doesn't visually block the room the way a solid wood piece can, which makes it a popular choice for smaller rooms or spaces that need to multitask. It also pairs easily with almost any chair style or colour scheme.
How do I clean glass dining furniture without streaks?
Use a proper glass cleaner or a warm water and vinegar solution with a microfibre cloth, working in circular motions and finishing with a dry cloth to prevent streaking. Avoid paper towels, which can leave lint behind, and abrasive scourers, which risk fine scratches on the surface.
Is glass dining furniture durable for everyday family use?
Tempered glass used in dining furniture is designed to withstand everyday knocks and is more impact-resistant than standard glass, though grit or rough-bottomed items left on the surface can cause fine scratches over time. Placemats and regular wiping help protect the surface for busy households.
Does glass furniture suit a family dining room?
Glass works well in most households, though families with very young children sometimes prefer to wait until they're a little older before introducing a glass tabletop, simply for peace of mind, even though tempered glass is built to be significantly tougher than standard glass.
