Is the glass tempered?

No ithe cabinet is not worth the money and very light wood. It has already started falling apart

The glass for once is not Gorilla Glass 3 like on the original. I am not even sure it is tempered glass. It will crack after the first drop. Mine did, while being in a good case - slipped from my pocket, fell on wood floor hitting the corner, the screen has a single crack in it. Thankfully the digitizer is still working.

Scott: The top is tempered, which is a standard. However, it is not a safety glass. Like everyone else has previously stated, be careful around small children.

No the glass isn't frosted. I bought etched window film to cover the glass and it looks great, but not sure you wanted to spend extra money.

No. This piece is very sturdy and heavy duty. The glass are not part of the structural integrity. Feel free to use only one glass.

yes it is. The outside and interior lining is stainless steel. Very tough to dent but it can happen on a drop. There is no glass interior to break inside though, like the old fashioned Thermos bottles.

No. It is glass on glass. I use them for a bath salt bar in my boutique. No issues!

Yes it is. It looks very nice. It doesn't look like the cheap glass. The only thing is that it took us long time to assemble

I don't know if they are tempered but I have dropped them once or twice each and they did not break. Obviously they withstand high temperatures. Both are still serving me well.

Yes the glass is black tempered safety glass. It is a very secure and attractive desk.

It does appear to be tempered glass but you would have break it to absolutely verify that. Sounds and feels like it it is genuine tempered glass though.

Sorry but I cannot tell if the glass is tempered or not. I'm just cautious and lay my hair styling tools on a heat resistant mat. So far nothing has cracked or shattered.

They must have changed the design because mine just arrived (8/1/14) and it is NOT glass lined. It's stainless steel inside and out. This does address all the negative feedback about the glass breaking since there is no glass to possibly break in this updated model, but I was expected glass inside based on the previous responses.

I believe so... we have dropped these into the sink and even the floor twice and they bounced around and did not break or chip. With the abuse these glasses take and the fact that none of them are chipped makes me think they are tempered - at the very least they are quite tough.

I don't know if it is tempered or not. The glass is thick enough that I think it could handle warm oil; not oil straight from a fryer that has not cooled at all.

Yes it is and pretty thin, fragile glass at that. After ~ 6 months ours broke and you can't buy replacements currently (we've looked everywhere) so unless they start making them again the whole thing is going in the dump :-(

Yes, this cutting board has a smooth glass finish and is tempered. It fits in small areas and is quite convenient.
