I, like most housewives, spend a lot of time in the kitchen. And for a long time I have been concerned about the problem of choosing oilcloth for the dining table. We have it made of natural wood, solid, so there is no way without protection, I want to keep it as long as possible. It would seem that such a banal thing as oilcloth to cover the table top, but how can it shake your nerves.

The main concern is cost versus wear. All oilcloths, both per meter and finished size, are now quite expensive. I also bought them in stores, listening to the advice of the seller, ordered on the Internet, and even took them in the regular market, on the advice of a neighbor. But no matter how I tried to choose a good quality, as a result, it did not help in any way.
They do not survive even for several months.. In just a couple of weeks, the drawing is erased, then someone will definitely cut it with a knife, then it deforms from hot dishes, then it slides on the table and you have to somehow be sophisticated to fix it. And this already has a completely unpresentable look, and it is very inconvenient, for example, to invite guests to the table.
Another persistent problem is with the size and color scheme.. Most of the oilcloths now have variegated and not fashionable colors, which is why it is difficult to choose something neutral, worthy.How I Found Salvation
In the end, completely disappointed and resigned to the fact that I constantly have to spend money on a new oilcloth for the table, I accidentally wandered into AliExpress and saw a soft glass tablecloth. Initially, this product did not inspire much confidence. I decided that this was an ordinary oilcloth, which in a month will wear off, tear, etc. At that time, I could not think that this would be a salvation for our family. I was attracted by the design: transparent and laconic, without bright colors and patterns, fits into any interior and does not hurt the eyes. After reading the reviews, I nevertheless decided to place an order at my own peril and risk. Four weeks later, the order came with Aliexpress.
The soft glass tablecloth impressed me very much at first sight, and after serving for several days, I was convinced of its unconditional advantages:
- Made of dense, soft-touch elastic material.
- One side is smooth, glossy, and the other is rough, so nothing will slip on the surface.
- Has no specific smell.
- The size went perfectly, and most importantly, on our round table, we didn't have to cut and tuck anything, it lay perfectly around the edges, as if it originally came with the furniture.
- The tablecloth is absolutely waterproof and looks extremely stylish and modern, it looks very harmonious.
As a result, my impressions of this coating are only positive.. The quality turned out to be just on top, this is a real find. On the site, the choice of tablecloth sizes is simply huge, so I decided to order more for myself for the computer table. And in the kitchen, so to speak, in harsh conditions, this coating has served faithfully for several months, and it gives the impression that it was bought in a store only yesterday.
