Chipping: How chip resistant is this after years of use?
44201
I have had several pieces of LC for a few years now...like three years. I take care not to knock them around the kitchen, wash them carefully in the sink, etc, and have not had any trouble with chipping. Also, LC has a great warranty against manufacturing defects.

I've had mine for about 6-8 mos and do not see any chipping. I have a variety of birds (magpie, Jays, small birds) and maybe even deer in the dark. I live in NM where it is always extremely windy and the feeder swings around w/o any problem or damage. I also have a copper cover like an umbrella in leaf shapes to keep the seed dry.

I use a little soap and water. I reviewed that it chipped, which it did. But so far that is the only chip and I still use all three.

I have not had a problem with it being chipped or broken. As it is glass of course you have to be careful with it and expect it to become chipped or broken after time. I suggest being very careful with this when you wash it or pack it up. But like I said I've never had a problem with mine

I've had these rods & shelves up quite some time and have not noticed any chipping. Very durable

Hi Kathy: Contact the manufacturer directly. The chips last for about 1 year, but longevity is influenced by the specific viscosity of the essential oils that you are using. I own 3 of their hand made wood and clay models and they work well. I've had a few chips go bad while under warranty and they sent out new chips promptly.

I would contact the seller or manufacturer for replacement parts or unit if you still have all the necessary information. These items should not chip easily.

I've only had this particular model for a couple months but have owned two other models and never experienced any chipping even in the northeast winters

Not to my knowledge. However, after a year of use, mine have not chipped, and ate still very sharp. I don't cook daily, though.

The item was chipped when I received it so I can't say. It hasn't incurred further damaged since I've owned it, likely due to the fact it has been handled with care and isn't used often.

Pretty resistant. I've had them since November of last year and only chipped one bowl. I've hit them fairly hard against other dishware while loading the dishwasher and have been amazed at not chipping or cracking any piece. The only one that chipped was one that my girlfriend dropped on linoleum.

Have not had a problem with any La Rochere product - not cracking, no chipping. I love mine!

nope... I've used it a lot...put it through the dishwasher... dropped it in the sink...so far no chips.

I have not had any problems with chipping or shattering. The only problem I have had is that the top cap has broken on two of mine but were replaced by the company free of charge.

we also had problems with our thin board. this maple end board has not chiped or split on us at all and we use it to open large hard vegetables. I have sanded the top once and added oil once sense we purchased it. we only use it for vegetables and fruit cutting , no meats

I have had this juicer for 5 months, but only use it about twice a week. After seeing your comment I looked closely at my auger and did see some very small scratches on one of the chisel edges (I think that is the correct terminology), but really minor enough that I never noticed it before I went looking for it. I have no 'gouges' or chipping or breaking at all. For what it is worth, that is my experience.

The corners came chipped on ours, but I've banged it off a few things and haven't added any more. Our pastry cutter hasn't added any scratches.
