Can you put hot cups of coffee on the table and not have stains on the table?

No you had better not! Use a coaster..and wipe up any spills quickly...will make the "wood" bubble. Pretty set but not too functional. Will need to replace within the year.

Yes you can. But the little part that holds the coffee grounds is VERY small. I don't even use mine because of that.

I used my smaller ones and had hot coffee in them. Wouldn't put in the dishwasher but don't a lot of things anyway. Just got them so haven't used them yet.

No, no. the cup is not heat friendly to the hand. Not as well insulated as the storge cups

I have owned mine for several months, and have forgotten to empty it on occasion, and no, it does not become coffee stained. I absolutely love this French Press, I was most concerned about the flavor, but it is fantastic, and the bonus of staying hot......just terrific......I highly recommend .......Yours truly, the coffee snob!

I am not exactly sure what the tabletop is made of; some sort of hard plastic or laminate. I have had my table for a while and it hasn't stained, but I wipe up any spills immediately. I get the impression that coffee or other dark liquid would stain if it was left on the table for any amount of time. I hope this is helpful.

No. It does not have that option. I think the best way to get your cup warm is by putting hot water in the cup prior to your first cup of coffee.

So far, so good. I've put plenty of "hot" cups of tea and coffee on the table and have had no problems. I LOVE this table!

I know you can put cold items on the tables. A cup of hot coffe or tea I've put on them. Something taken just out of an oven I dont think I'd advise unless you used a hot plate or pot holder under the item.

Just use a brush, etc., and cleaning it is no problem. Just don't spill coffee, juice, sugar laden soft drink, etc on it.

Absolutely. You just put your coffee in and it says the word OPEN or CLOSE so you do not wonder if it is opened or not. When you do a thorough cleaning maybe every few days instead of just soapy water and rinse then you will screw off the inside two pieces that give it it's no drip and thermal qualities. Now you can't lose those parts or you are up the creek. I just lay them on a paper towel and put it right back together so I don't have someone else in the kitchen misplace them. Easy to clean.

True! I have to heat the coffee after it poured! I use the hot water steamer to make instant coffee, which is very hot!

It's hot, you don't need to heat up the freshly brewed coffee in the microwave....one hint, when you pour the coffee into your cup, lift the pot up high...otherwise it drips....I'm very happy with mine..and I love the colors.

Yes, it stains rather quickly. It is fixable though, I do a deep clean with a cleaner meant to remove coffee buildup (people say a tiny amount of bleach would work too) once a week. But I spend most if the week with a tea-stained mug.

We use grinds purchased from super markets. We add a paper coffee filter to basket for a fine grind of decaf coffee we get from Costco's to help eliminate stains on coffee pot but this is not something that has to be done.

I don't think you can. The cup I had leaked so bad, I stopped using it. I stained too many work shirts.

I have used the cups for coffee, tea, herbal teas, grape juice, and several other fruit juices, eaten different foods from them and they are as clean and clear as they were when I purchased them 2 or 3 months ago. There are no signs of any type of stains on the cups. Norm Rohrabaugh
