Tempered glass is best for any glass dining tabletop. It’s sturdy, long-lasting, and overall a safer option because of its high-impact resistant characteristic. This type of glass is less likely to break or get scratched than clear and tinted glass, making it an ideal choice for households with children. If the glass does happen to shatter, it will break into tiny, harmless pebble-like pieces instead of jagged shards. Besides, only a certain amount of force can cause tempered glass to break so you can rest assured that your round glass dining table won’t spontaneously shatter.
Glass dining tables can scratch easily but only if placed in high traffic locations in your home and not treated with extra caution when in use. Round glass dining room table sets are less likely to scratch passersby due to a lack of corners.
The glass tabletop can be scratched by materials harder than the glass, such as metals and unglazed ceramics. Using forks and knives while dining on a glass table can lead to scratching. To lower the chances of this happening, use placemats and coasters for all drinks and serving ware.
Round glass dining room table sets are easy to clean, but to achieve a streak-free finish, you’ll need a suitable cleaning detergent and technique. Gather one microfiber cloth, a cleaning liquid of your choice, and newspapers. If the glass has a filmy look, you’ll need 1:1 cup water and rubbing alcohol to restore the glass’ shine.
Start by dusting the glass before applying liquid cleaner to avoid creating smears. Spray the liquid cleaner and wipe it down with the microfiber cloth. Before the liquid dries, wipe the glass with newspaper to eliminate any streaks.
If your glass has a cloudy look because of age, it may need a deeper clean. Mix the water and rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle and apply while rubbing the glass down in small, circular motions.
