Care & Maintenance

Durability
1 1/2-inch thick glass is very strong and durable. Glass is pure and is non-porous so it will not be affected by any chemicals.

Heat resistant
It is not recommended to put hot pots on glass counters. Use a trivet whenever possible.

Although glass can resist very high temperatures, breakage could still occur under certain circumstances (near edges or sharp corners, for example). We do not offer a guarantee against breakage due to thermal shock. Hence, we recommend not putting extremely hot pots directly on your glass countertop.

Cleaning

Any window cleaning or water/vinegar solution will ensure that your countertop stays new for years to come!
