What can you put on this table to make it both non-toxic (daughter likes to eat off the table sometimes) and spill proof? (avoiding table rings, etc.)

You could coat it with polyurethane. My grandkids eat on it and rings have not been a problem. It is just painted, not natural wood. They love it for all kinds of activities. It is well made and adorable. Another option would be cutting a small plastic tablecloth to size.

You can place it on a table. It has rubber stoppers on it. You might want to place it on a small grated shelf so it doesn't overheat though

My daughter thinks its hilarious to drop her sippy cup from her high chair onto our wood floor. So far it has not broken-- the silicone sleeve seems to protect it pretty well. I am not worried about it breaking in hand, but it could possibly break if dropped hard enough on the floor, but so far so good and we have been using those bottles since 4 months (now at 11 months).

It has been a little over a year with our set. We eat at the table but also have things that end up finding a home there...like napkin holders...flower vases etc....This is a "rubberwood" table. It comes with a decent finish of polyurethane. However, we do keep either a table cloth or a runner on it. It is TRUE that a nice wood table should be showed off a bit, but then again, it's wood!! Cannot expect it to hold us like granite or tiles! Given that this product is real wood, I would protect it as such. It is a durable table, but it also needs consideration based on what it is constructed of.

I strongly suggest contacting the manufacturer.My opinion, however, would be that if there was any food touching the cover, the food might get too hot and damage the cover.

My granddaughter has had the table and chairs for over a year now and it has no srapes or chips. With normal use, I would say it will be ok.

I did a little bit of water like 2 tablespoons in my daughters and added about a tsp of flour. That way my daughter could mix something and I didnt have to worry about it being ruined.

The table seems to have been applied with a "protective agent" similar to a varnish. It comes with a list of "dos/donts" to maintain it from scratches. My main problem with it is the weak connection between the table and the stand. It has toppled over several times! I just don't know what to do to make it stable and secure.

I was going through the same thing and read suggestions here. They really helped. I ended up using a small safety pin bent up and sat on table pointing up.Pressed the tiny hole onto to it all the way and then used a mid size short screw driver to nudge that batter cover off. So glad it worked!

The table top is plastic, pretty heavy-duty plastic, but I'd still be very careful about heat from your grill. You'd want to protect it from discoloration or warping. But it is compact, sturdy, and fine for holding food, so likely suitable for the other things you want to do with it.

I only use it for holidays and I do like it boy it is not completely water proof. The spill does bead up but some of the moisture does "sit" on the table. This thing is SUPER slippery..one of the grandkids crawled up on a chair and grabbed the table clothe and the whole thing almost can off the table....hope that helps

I have had the same issue with these and find that I can basically only put things that don't "spill" in there. You have to gently close them and the lids tend to stay on, but they are NOT leakproof. Any runny thing like salad dressing spills.

The table is plastic. You should put a hot pad, trivet or heat-resistant tile on the table.

Our cats knocked it off the feeder when we first got it too. My husband solved this problem by screwing it down to a flat wooden board that fits the entire feeder and is long enough that it cannot be knocked over. So far so good. We've had it about 3 months with no spills.

The default 100% safe answer is NO that is not safe. Though the table can most likely handle the torque and weight of your kiddo in the seat, it changes the physics just a bit when you snug the handles down on the glass like a vice. Supposing you install it on glass, you then have compression pressure on the glass in addition to the weight and torque of kiddo in the seat. Our kid would sometimes bounce around in the seat a little bit and bang on the table which in your case would cause a lot more stress on the glass (which doesn't give any clues that it is about to break), so I'd suggest not putting this seat on a glass table. I *might* reconsider if the glass were 25mm+ thick and if it were a smaller table, but when talking about the safety of my kid, I'd just avoid the situation 100% especially when you consider what could go wrong...

Yes.I have a 3 yr old daughter who is always getting it dirty. I usually get a wet sponge and wipe it down. She even wrote on it once with crayons and it wiped right off with the sponge. I love this table! The only thing I was a little disappointed in was the size. From looking at the pics on line, I thought it was going to be a little bigger. Other than that, it's beautiful!!!

hi, this thing is really cute and tiny. i have a wooden table out back by the pool area where i used it so did have it on a plate to catch anything that popped out but it is stable enough to sit on its own. good luck.
