ME.FAN Silicone Coasters with Holder

They definitely catch it—that raised lip around the edge is surprisingly effective. The water pools in the little tray instead of dripping onto your table, which reviewers love. The trade-off is that these aren't absorbent like cork or fabric coasters, so you'll need to wipe them out occasionally. But honestly, most people prefer this since you can just rinse them clean in seconds rather than dealing with soggy, stained coasters.

This is where these coasters get interesting—they have a bit of a split personality. The bottom grips your table really well (reviewers rave about them staying put), but most people say they don't stick to glass bottoms, which is ideal. However, a few reviewers did mention occasional suction with certain glasses or bottles. If you've ever used silicone trivets or baking mats, you know how they can sometimes grab onto smooth surfaces—it's similar here, though it seems to be the exception rather than the rule.

You can, but you probably don't need to. Most reviewers just wipe them with a cloth or rinse them under the tap—they clean up that easily. One person did mention theirs warped slightly in the dishwasher's heated dry cycle, so if you do use the dishwasher, you might want to skip the heat dry or just hand wash them to be safe. They're silicone, so a quick rinse really does the job.

They're somewhere in the middle. Several reviewers mentioned they're thinner than expected—don't picture those chunky cork coasters. That said, the silicone is durable and flexible, and people report them lasting a long time without cracking or wearing down. The material feels soft and pliable rather than rigid, which actually helps with that non-slip grip on your table.

Absolutely. The silicone is heat resistant (a couple reviewers mentioned up to 480°F), so your hot tea mug or coffee cup won't be a problem at all. They're just as effective for hot drinks as cold ones—the raised lip will catch any drips from tea bags or coffee spills, and they won't stick to the bottom of warm mugs. Plus, the attractive pattern on the surface makes them nice enough for your morning tea ritual or when you have guests over.

Reviewers seem genuinely pleased with the black plastic holder—it keeps the coasters neatly stacked and looks tidy on a counter or shelf. The base might rock slightly according to one person, but overall it's a functional addition rather than cheap packaging filler. If you're someone who likes things organized (or you're buying these as a gift), the holder is a nice touch that makes the whole set feel more complete.
