do I need to worry about glass rings from sweating drinks?

Yes, as with any wood surface. This is really a nice dining set...I get many compliments.

I encountered the same situation, but I figured out it happened with certain glassware that had a tendency to "sweat" but not with other types. So, I compensate by avoiding that particular glassware or by placing a small napkin on the coaster to absorb the moisture from the glassware. As for the diameter, I was accustomed to smaller fostoria coasters and didn't think I'd like the larger size, but after using them, I find they are more versatile than the smaller coaster. Hope this helps.

Nope. That has not been a problem. Perhaps I drink faster than most. It is a great little ice bucket. Drink up!

Hi there! No ring required for me I have the advent natural bottles -I just screwed right onto the bottle - no leaks!

Not overly at all! It obviously gets somewhat hot, but it's a very thick glass. This set is amazingly sturdy and well made! AWESOME! No complaints!

Haven't tried, but it is very thin - I've had some damage to them from drinks that were not boiling. I'd worry a bit.

Let me ask you this.... are you just sweating, or do you have a water bottle that may spill all over it? As far as I know. sweat will just make a mess when touching your body, so, that can easily be wiped with a damp cloth..... water bottle spilling.... most likely I would think it could damage something.... but average sweating most likely would not mess up anything....

These were a gift from my son to his sister so I can't answer directly. But my gut instinct tells me "NO" you don't want to use the plastic sunsreen bottles as they are designed to hold chemicals which would leach into your booze. I don't think you would be happy with those results!! These are designed specifically for your drinks. Hopes this helps.

It's winter here so I can't double check, but I don't recall the sleeve sweating. The exposed glass would still sweat though.

The Pirit seems to be taking off in the RV/Camper/Campground world and we do leave them on all the time. I haven't used one in heat mode for more than a month yet though. You can get other brands but some are not considered safe for drinking "for humans". If I shouldn't drink from them, I wouldn't water my animals with them either.

Absolutely not. The exterior stays cool even with boiling water. Hot drinks stay that way for longer than with a ceramic mug though, so be aware of that.

no not a bit also if I have a glass of ice water in the late evening (9 PM) and the ice is still there in morning (6 AM). These glasses have really good stainless steel construction.

Yes. there is a plastic ring around the inside to drink from. You don't burn your lips.

Dear Kevin: They do NOT! The drinking opening is cleverly sized to avoid that problem. My wife, daughter and I all har our own, and I've not had any kind of problem whatsoever. I hope this is helpful! Warmest regards from Chicago, John

I think you could put a glass if water on it and it probably wouldn't leave a ring but i don't thing the legs would be unaffected if it were standing in a puddle of water for too long.

Nope. Don't put the foam directly on the glass of course, but other than that you'll have no problem at all.
