Product Information
Full details
This set of four B&Q cork-backed coasters is designed for homeowners seeking to add heritage charm and practical protection to their table surfaces. The key benefit is the durable, heat-resistant laminated top that's easy to clean, combined with a cork backing that prevents furniture damage. A potential caveat is that while heat-resistant, they may not be suitable for extremely hot items directly from a stove.

Troubleshooting
Coaster is leaving marks on furniture.
Ensure the cork backing is clean and free of debris. Check that the furniture surface is dry before placing the coaster.
Laminated surface has a stubborn stain.
Gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Coasters slide around on the table.
