Heat protection: Creates a reliable barrier between hot items and your table or countertop to prevent burns, stains, and discoloration from cookware, teapots, and hot plates. Foldable, space-saving design: Collapses flat for compact storage so it takes minimal space in drawers or on shelves and keeps kitchen and dining areas organized. Safe and stable: Non-slip surface keeps hot dishes, teapots, and bowls firmly in place to reduce the risk of spills and accidental movement. Wood construction: Natural wood adds a rustic look to your kitchen while providing strength and resistance to high temperatures without warping or breaking. Versatile compatibility: Works with a wide range of hot items — casserole dishes, serving bowls, tea kettles, pans, and more — making it suitable for everyday use and entertaining. Durable performance: Sturdy build and heat-resistant material deliver reliable protection over repeated use and storage cycles. Practical use examples: Family dinner: Place a hot casserole or roasting pan on the coaster to protect the dining table while serving. Afternoon tea: Set a boiling teapot on the coaster to avoid steam marks or heat rings on a wooden countertop. Small kitchens and entertaining: Fold and store multiple coasters in a drawer when not in use, then unfold to protect surfaces during parties or gatherings.
