How thick or thin is the glass?Also, is the base solid enough to resist a decent accidental wobble of a table?

It is a little thinner than a regular drinking glass, but the base is VERY solid and will survive a table wobble.

The base is very solid & doesn't seem like it would fall over easily. The glass itself is fairly thin but doesn't feel "delicate" if that makes sense. We use the glass almost daily and it has held up well.

No. It isn't safe. You need to have a very sturdy table in order to use this. Glass gives me the impression that it's thin. Your table top shld be at least 1 inch thick too.

It's not very thick. I've had better tables in the office. I would probably order a different one next time, but I feel it is acceptable. I use an additional foam on top of it and it is firm but acceptable for patients. The therapists don't mind it because it is quite wide.

The edges are very smooth and slightly rounded. The glass is thick enough that I don't worry when my 25 pound cat jumps on it. I don't see how the glass could have fallen off. The table comes with four sturdy screws with which to fasten it to the frame. The frame itself is fairly steady when the table is placed on my rugs, but sometimes wobbles if the cat is energetic. It is too small to use for a major sewing project, but a nice size for repairs or for use as an end table.

Suctions cups on top the base keep the glass from sliding off. You can lean on it sitting down and it shouldn't be a problem.

This works very well no wobble. Just be sure to attach it well you have a couple of options i just put a board under the table as a back up and turned the screws. It is very nice.

It is not very sturdy. I wouldn't put anything of significant value on that table. It's not that it will break, it just jiggles a lot! Probably couldn't balance a glass of milk on there either!

It's glass but it seems quite sturdy. The plastic base is securely attached, not removable.

I don't actually know how thick the glass is, but I know it will hold something that weighs 4 lbs. We have lots of things on the table and it's fine. We have a vase that weighs almost 3 lbs among other things. All's well.

We have not installed ours yet as it's going in a new house that is just now being built. However, I can say that it is heavy & very thick glass which should stand up nicely to normal use. Short of dropping it or striking it with great force I doubt if it would crack, chip or break easily. Even if it did, I'd probably not hesitate to buy the same one again because it really is beautiful & very well made!

Glass is solid and I would say 1/4 thick. Love my detolfs, nice display case and worth displaying lots of your favorites.The shelfs are also sturdy.

I'm pretty sure it's tempered glass so it's not like plate glass that would break very easily. Also, its set down in a metal rim and the legs are very sturdy. We have a lot of wind where I live and this table has never blown over.

The glass itself is solid and heavy so it can definitely support some weight. The legs are metal too so I'd guess at least a couple hundred pounds.

The glass is 1/4" thick. I have had this for about 9 mos. now and have gotten many compliments on it. It replaced a very expensive, one of a kind table that was just too big for my new condo. I finally gave my old one away after stumbling around it for 3 years and never looked back. I love this table. Good quality, perfect size and took all of 5 mins. (I can barely replace a light bulb) to put together! Did not think I would like the chrome but looks great! ... hope this helps!

I do not feel the glass is thin but it would break if dropped. I've used this all summer and it's still in great shape.

It's a pretty sturdy table, about average for a pub table. I wouldn't recommend placing anything overly heavy on it...but a few pint glasses and a pitcher of your favorite beverage is just fine.

I feel like you could break it, particularly at the bend of the base. But I don't feel like if it fell off a table it would shatter or anything. It feels more like hard plastic than glass in my opinion.
