I use a vinyl tablecloth for everyday family meals but I am sick of having to replace them for tears. How will this tablecloth hold up to daily use?

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

Hello. I use mine for daily use but I don't have children at home. , I wouldn't use it at all if I did since it does slip around a bit and children would have it slipping and sliding all over the place. I can just see the food-on-the-floor accidents now! :-) And by the way, the actual green tablecloth is MUCH darker than the photo but I like it with light colored place mats and napkins. Hope this helps.

This is much more durable than a vinyl tablecloth. We end up washing ours about once a week because of our two year old and it still looks good. He pulls it and moves it around and it hasn't torn yet. It has the feel of cloth so I would guess that unless you cut it with something sharp it should last a long time.

Holds up very well for daily use. I wash it often and the threads are still solid.

Excellent! The best tablecloth I've ever owned. Too expensive though. If they were cheaper I would have bought 6 more.

You'll love it. Will never tear like plasitc or vinyl, and actually looks like a classy linen... except you can wipe off minor spots with a sponge. I bought a couple and swap them about once a week.

I am using it in my kitchen, but I do not cook all that much. It is NOT vinyl...it is a paper, however, there does seem to be a coating on it. It could be wiped down with a damp cloth, but I would NOT try to scrub it.

This one will work. It's also really a nice table cloth. However, keep in mind this one slides a lot, so you'll need something under it or a heavy center piece to keep it in place. This table cloth is really durable and washes easily.

I think a few scratches and dings are probably inevitable, over time, because the wood is soft. But, my table still looks almost new because I wrap it with a couple of layers of bubble wrap in three strips--one strip wrapped around each end, with the sides folded over to protect the corners and a strip down the middle to hold the legs in place. I tape with clear wrapping tape or masking tape, if it sticks well. It takes a little bit of time to put it away this way, but has protected it between uses and the wrap is reusable. A friend who bought one had enough sewing skills to make a sturdy envelope of fabric, which I think is very nice. She cut a strip of fabric and tied it around the middle, to hold the legs in place and she bought cardboard corners from a framing store, to put around the corners, before she slips it into its open-ended envelope. I hope this was helpful.

Vinyl? I have six used daily ... Three kids. Had them for over two yrs now. No rips or tears.

I bought my table around two years ago. I use it every day and no problems so far. I feel it was a great buy.

I have three of the tablecloths and they are wonderful. Just toss them in your washer and dryer and they look like new - totally wrinkle-free! They are also stain resistant. My grandchildren love tacos and have spilled taco sauce on the tablecloth. A quick wipe with a damp dish cloth and the stains came right up. I would highly recommend these tablecloths. The colors are very vibrant, too.

I don't use it on a daily basis - only use it when I need to "dress-up" - so I can't really say how it will hold up with daily use. Howeverit's so reasonably priced if it only lasts a couple of months, it might still be worth it.

I've had my table for over a year and the cloth looks like it's new. This table looks much more expensive than the price paid. Excellent value and quality. Hope this helps.

Hi ASC...I've had 3 sets of this dinnerware & though I don't use it for everyday, I have had no problem at all with scratches and mine are now about 4 years old. I do take care when I stack them but have never put any covering between. They are nicely heavy (I like that, some may not) so I suspect if one wasn't careful they might cause some damage, but I would think it would have to be from pretty harsh handling. I have been delighted with my sets & quite enjoy using them from time to time & especially at Christmas (that's why I got 3 sets). So far I've never had a piece chipped, cracked, or broken. And by the way, I'm in my 70's and can lift them just fine but if I was going to have a group of older folks to entertain, I would not use them to entertain buffet style. I find them lovely as do my company. No matter how attractive & fancy some of the paper or plastic plates are, I find they are generally not sturdy enough for other than picnics or backyard outings. Hope yours works as well for you as they have for me! Rh

It is a little thicker then a plastic table cloth, but not by too much. I used it as an isle runner when I get married. It worked well and didn't rip with 6 women walking on it with spike heels on.

I think it will hold up with daily use as much as any other hot pot (provided you don't let it run dry!) I have had mine several months and I don't have any problems thus far.

I've had mine for a couple months now. Sharing my bed are myself, my husband, and our toddler. (Don't judge me.) We all roll around quite a bit in our sleep, and I wash it about once a week, and have not yet noticed any tears, rips, loose threads, or pulled places. For as cheap as it is, it's holding up remarkably well.

It's fairly thick...I use it as a drape over the table for communion. It would probably work for an offering bag. But I suppose that depends on how durable you need it to be. It's certainly not a flimsy fabric.

It depends on the size of your table. The bench can seat an average size adult and a small child comfortably, but I don't think you will have enough arm room. Also not sure how well the fabric will hold up against food stains, you may want to consider pretreating it first.

I have had mine for over a month and haven't had that problem. I've had the sides tear on the plastic ones, but these are more cloth like. Love them!

I've used it to wipe my glass top table and it didn't leave any scratches. However, I don't use it daily for that purpose, simply because the size of the Skoy cloth is small. I do use it to clean the stove-top and it works well for that purpose. What I do like about the cloth is that it rinses out well. I think it's best to throw it in the washer when you do your laundry for a more through cleaning.
