FAQs

Can I put these coasters in the dishwasher?

No, these coasters are not dishwasher safe. The mirror coating and metal trim can be damaged by high heat and abrasive detergents.

Are these coasters heat resistant?

They are designed to handle standard coffee mugs and cold drink glasses, but avoid placing extremely hot cookware directly on the glass.

What are the specific animals included?

The set includes an elephant, lion, giraffe, flamingo, monkey, and zebra.

Will the mirror surface scratch easily?

While the glass is durable, it can be scratched by abrasive materials. Always use a soft cloth for cleaning and avoid dragging heavy, rough-bottomed mugs across the surface.

Can I use these outdoors?

They are primarily intended for indoor home decor. Extended exposure to moisture or extreme weather may affect the metallic finish.

Troubleshooting

Fingerprints and smudges on mirror glass

Clean gently with a soft microfiber cloth and a small amount of glass cleaner sprayed onto the cloth rather than the coaster directly.

Metal trim looks dull or tarnished

Use a dry, soft cloth to buff the metal trim regularly to restore its shine. Avoid acidic or ammonia-based cleaners.

Coaster sliding on smooth surface

Apply a small, clear silicone bumper or adhesive felt pad to the underside of the coaster to improve grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep these coasters in top condition, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the glass surface with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to remove smudges. If water spills occur, blot the area dry immediately.
  2. Avoid Abrasives: Never use scouring pads or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can scratch the mirror surface or damage the metallic gold finish on the trim.
  3. Storage: When not in use, stack them carefully or place them in a holder to prevent the metal edges from scratching the glass of the coaster stacked above.
  4. Surface Compatibility: These coasters are safe for use on most common household surfaces including wood, granite, laminate, and glass.
