Glass top table with a toddler

Anonymous
We have a small breakfast nook and I love, love this table, but we also have an 18 month old, so is it the worst idea err?

Fingerprints and kiss marks (drool) on the top and bottom. Awful to keep clean. BTDT.

No way would I consider glass with young kids. I like it too but not worth the risk.

Our son broke a glass top coffee table crawling under it at age 3, so no way.

Ours went to the attic with the first. After living there for 5 yrs, we took it to goodwill.

We have a glass top table we eat at. It isn't a problem with my toddler. She knows not to crawl around or jump on or otherwise destroy our nice furniture.

I agree. I just moved my glass tables into storage. It could break on the child, fall on the child or the child could run into it and get seriously injured.

Worst idea ever. We sold ours when we had our first baby.

We have a glass top coffee table. I feel safe enough, but it's always a mess (drool, spills, fingerprints).

We have a glass dining room table. I hate it. Just waiting the for the day when I can afford a new one.

THAT being said, it is excellent for crafts.

We sold our glass top and got a cushioned ottoman that has a double sided top - hard top underneath for entertaining.
