If you want something low priced and good quality get these!
August 17, 2017
I ordered 2 sets of these because I wanted something decent looking and low priced. I absolutely LOVE them. They fit almost everything (not coffee mugs) but they look nice and are solid. There was no damage to them and they are holding up well.

They keep the condensation off my table full of papers so my papers don't get wet. And they stack without having to put them in a holder.
Awesome!
March 3, 2017
They are very pretty, a really dark brown color. Heavy enough that my cat doesn't try to knock them off but light enough that they are easy to move. Padding on the bottom keeps them from sliding and they fit most glasses and cups.

December 25, 2015
I use these every day. My smaller glasses do not fit in the middle, but I flip them over. Any excess water does not get on the table, it goes around the lip when they're flipped so to be fair, works as expected!

These coaters are really pretty. They came in a nice box and would make a great gift. No one has actually used them yet, but they make a nice decoration. They are really nice.
Great elegant coasters fit my decor perfectly
December 12, 2016
Great elegant coasters fit my decor perfectly!! The reviews about mold I didn't find to be accurate. But I don't stack my coasters when wet.... so maybe just don't be a dummy and stack your bamboo coasters while still damp :). Good buy
I really like these for usage around my house
September 5, 2016
I really like these for usage around my house. I've been using them for a few months now, and they've taken a lot of spills and sweats from different types of drinks, but they always clean right off and still look nice. I've matched them up with a pair of bamboo table mats as well.
Absorbs liquid, glasses don't stick. Perfect coaster
July 24, 2016
Looking around Amazon at other coasters, it seems they all have a huge flaw. Either they don't absorb liquid at all, which defeats the purpose of a coaster, or the glass sticks to it incessantly which is super annoying. None of that with these coasters. I just bought my second set, they are pretty much perfect. The bamboo slats hold liquid in, even from the sweatiest of glasses/cups. After owning my first set for almost three years, I did notice some mold growing in between the bamboo on a couple of them, which is why I bought another set. Can't really complain, they were three years old and they aren't expensive, and when something gets wet and dries over and over it can grow mold. I'll take the three years of frustration free function for $14, then just buy another set three years later.
These are the perfect coasters for me!
June 27, 2016
Best coasters I've ever had! These look so nice and work so well that I highly recommend them. The bamboo center soaks up any condensation or drips. I did see some people had issues with mold, but mine have never had a problem. I keep four out and they are constantly used (I've had them about a year now). They dry out quickly so I don't see a worry about mold at all. I live in a hot climate, but not much humidity (SoCal) so maybe that helps. I appreciate the fact that the bamboo is flat and level, so no accidental spills of your drink which I did have problems with previous coaster sets I've had. These would work well in any room, they have a nice clean classic look. Most importantly, they do their jobs very well!
Domestic Tranquility Restored
January 21, 2013
Prior to purchasing these coasters, we had a handful of stone and glass coasters. Every time the glasses rested on the coasters for a few minutes, the condensation would cause the coast and the glass to stick together. The resulting clatter when the coaster would drop midway through raising the glass & hit the table would illicit sounds of frustration from my wife...like the the air escaping a truck tire. No more! The moisture from the glass is wicked into the bamboo on the coaster and they never stick to the glass. Very nice appearance that matches our decor and good fit/finish.

The back side has a thin material on it so there is no scratching
September 8, 2017
These are great. I bought them because they looked like they would fit my hardwood table and they do. The multi colored shades work well with the wood grain on the table. The back side has a thin material on it so there is no scratching. I really like them.
Nice quality and great casual look for the table
June 20, 2017
These bamboo placemats are gorgeous, they don't disappoint! Nice sturdy quality and they look exactly as shown. The black fabrics trim adds a nice touch that offsets our black kitchen appliances, and the light bamboo goes well with any dinnerware set. So glad I took the chance!
Excellent Placemats
November 27, 2016
I love these placemats! I have had them for a few months now and have had no problems. They are still in great condition, even though they have had numerous foods/drinks spilled on them. My cats also like to use them as a bed when I'm not looking. Great product - I would definitely recommend.
Very nice place mats
November 13, 2016
These place mats are really nice and we get a lot of complements on them. They are easy to clean and take care of. They are well made and have held up to everyday use.
But I love them. Very fast shipment
January 25, 2016
The mats I received were a different color than pictured... But I love them. Very fast shipment. Thank you! :)
very beautiful
June 21, 2014
These are even prettier than they are pictured. And I like that they are flat slats. EvErything sits level on them and food doesn't fall thru like some bamboo mats. This was a test purchase and I am now going to place an order for 2 more sets so I have them for when the family is all here.

January 16, 2017
There are quite a few reviews from people who did not receive the coasters with the two-tone stain. I really liked the contrast between the black and natural wood, so I took the risk and also received the natural colored coasters without the black. Fortunately, I do still like them and plan to keep the coasters I received, but I'm removing 1 star for the incorrect item description.
Not quite what is pictured but still nice
August 3, 2016
The staining and wood graining on the actual coasters is a little bit different as to what's shown in the pictures, but overall I like these. My kid thought it was funny to give the foam and paper coasters I was using to the dog to chew apart, so I got these to outlast them both.
Great value, but a few quirks.
June 20, 2016
These coasters are great!Pros:- Really beautiful woodgrain; properly treated and stained.- Lightweight, they're not going to ding or chip if dropped.- Stackable designCons:- Doesn't soak up water that well, if your glass is especially sweaty you could get a drip when you pick your glass up.- Mine didn't have the darker banding around the outside that's shown in the photo.All in all, these are really a great deal for their quality. They go great on my new mahogany coffee table!
Good coasters
March 29, 2016
They match my natural handmade coffee table and end tables well. I'm pleased with them. They absorb well though they don't look like they will. Good product for the price. I'd give 5 stars if it had felt on the bottom.

January 19, 2016
I love these. Beautiful. Only reason they didn't receive a 5 star; they are very light weight, so if your cup has condensation (cold drink), it will stick to the cup when you lift. I was breastfeeding and didn't realize it stuck. It almost landed on my newborn. Still nice coasters just too light. Add some weight and it'll be 5stars easy.
Good, but not as advertised
September 25, 2014
They're okay. I know someone that has ones that look almost exactly like the pictures, and these don't actually look like their picture.They are indeed made of wood, but the bottom only touches the table for about 3/4 of the width and slopes up from there. I was expecting the bottom to be completely flat. There is also no darker/black color to the bottom. They have the same color all over.The reason I got these was because of the lip to hold any condensation, and that IS there and does its job! Overall, they aren't quite what I was looking for, but they do the job as well as any, so it was fine.

August 27, 2015
I'm very pleased with the performance of these coasters and glad I went with these over the other similarly priced options. The build quality is nice, the coaster box is solid and the leather and bamboo are sewn very well. I have place many cold perspiring drinks atop these coasters and have never had any damage. The bamboo is still intact, no ring lines, and the feax leather around has not frayed. Would buy again.
no more broken table tops from "Thirsty Stone" coasters
December 15, 2013
It is cheaply made but it is worth what I paid for it. I will buy more because it does do the job perfectly. Those "thirsty stones" stick to the bottom of glasses and then fall on glass top tables and these really do absorb moisture to prevent damage to the tables.

Good mats
July 9, 2017
So far I've noticed that if you try and clean it the color somewhat bleeds. I wasn't expecting that. I also saw the grooves but really didn't think that good would get caught in it but it beats trying to uncurl those godforsaken cloth placemats. At these these do not stain either. Overall, I prefer these mats to cloth mats because of the durability.
So far so good.
June 28, 2017
So far they're proving pretty decent. They look nice but the edges could be done a little neater as there are some loose threads and sewn edges showing out off to the side from the bottom of the mat.

February 10, 2017
These placemats are decent. They look absolutely beautiful and the pictures on Amazon are quite close to what you get. My only complaint is that they're cheaply made of course, and you'll get threading that pops out from time to time and it looks tacky. Other than that, I love them--they look great and have held up well over months of use.
Nice look, questionable durability
April 4, 2015
These placemats look really nice and the quality overall is fine (Stuart clearly got a "lemon" somehow) but I do wonder about how dry the bamboo is. It seems like they will soak up anything spilled on them as it feels as if there's no "finish" on them at all. I want to test it by wiping one of them with a damp cloth but I'm kind of afraid of what will result, as another reviewer mentioned that the slats have warped on her. Being as though they're pretty inexpensive I may just bit the bullet and try putting some mineral oil or something on them to "seal" them, otherwise I don't think the look is going to last very long.
Seller made it right!
December 6, 2014
The initial set I received was defective so my review was pretty harsh as I was very disappointed however... The seller contacted me and asked to send a new set which I received and which was much much better than the first set. If the second set is the typical quality then I have no issue recommending these.

Too small for all cups and mugs
May 26, 2017
I wish these were a bit bigger, does not fit all my mugs. Unfortunately, if you have a cold drink- water does build up on the surface of these like mentioned in other reviews.
Looks great but too small
May 1, 2017
I like the look and feel of these coasters. The wood is handsome and classy.Unfortunately, the concave is so small and narrow that many cups/mugs do not properly fit...especially coffee mugs (unless it's an abnormally narrow mug) - they are too wide for the coaster and sit lopsided. Such a shame, as they are great looking little pieces.
Look great, but..
August 14, 2016
Came quickly and look great. I use them all the time......but! One caveat is that if you place a cold drink atop them, they will stick to the glass (which you may not even notice) then all of a sudden they'll drop and go bouncing off of tables and stuff. It's kinda funny when you and the guys are sitting around drinking, I guess, but it's also kind of annoying.
Coasters are ok, just not quite as pictured
January 3, 2016
The coasters are ok, just not what I was expecting from the photo. I thought they would be black or very dark on the outside, as they appear in the images. However, they are (very nice) unfinished, uniformly colored wood inside and out.

January 28, 2015
they're quite attractive but small. the average size coffee mug isn't going to fit. also, condensation often causes the wood to stick, causing a startling clamour once the coaster frees itself .so, if you're into high-maintenance coasters coupled with the nagging thought that, perhaps, you should have opted for a different solution to your coaster needs- these are the coasters for you.
Don't absorb water, too small for my bigger glasses
September 19, 2012
These look nice however they do not absorb water. The water sits in a puddle on top of the wood. They hold the water ok however I was expecting them to absorb it not just let it sit on the surface. So far I have only used it with a plastic cup but I imagine because the glass is sitting in the water you have a good chance of drips when you pick up the glass. I had the stone ones and they absorbed the water much better. The other issue is these will fit the standard dinner glass however I tend to use a wider beer mug type glass (with a handle) and the glass will not fit on these because of the lip. Also, these do not have a soft bottom (felt/cork) like others I had. It is all wood so I am concerned they may scratch my tables. I decided to keep them anyway since when company is over I give them the normal drinking glasses. I still have one stone coaster I keep for my oversized glass.

These are nice, just plan on replacing them
March 15, 2017
These are nice, just plan on replacing them. Ours lasted about 18 mo. Threw away 2 after about a year because they were moldly. Finally had to replace the whole set about 6 months later. They are relatively inexpensive so I wasnt expecting them to last are lifetime.
Nice looking coasters, different color holder, moisture leaks
February 20, 2017
I'm reviewing the coasters after only a week of owning them, so I can't speak to the molding issue. So far, they are decent performing coasters; they don't stick to your glass, they look nice and they don't fully leak through (more on that in a bit).An issue I have with the looks of it is the coaster holder is BLACK. It stands out especially when the coasters with the brown leather edges are contrasting against it. A dark brown wood would have made it match better with the coasters, as well as my furniture.An issue I ran into the other night with the performance of these is that they "sweat" or condinsate through the faux leather bottom. I had a whiskey glass with ice on it while it was sitting on a brown leather ottoman and when I picked up the coaster after about 2 hours, it was moist under. For most people that defeats the purpose of having a coaster and which is why I wouldn't recommend this.One star gets knocked off for the black coaster holder, another for the pass through of moisture.
The coaster itself will scratch fine desk surfaces
March 16, 2016
The coaster itself will scratch fine desk surfaces. The coasters are nice in themselves but the material on the bottom is like sandpaper to my brand new desk that is your traditional laminate pressed wood desk. I prefer a coaster with rubber tabs on the bottom for fine surfaces.
Not a Workhorse
June 2, 2015
I planned on using this for company but plans changed and I really only ended up using one of these coasters pretty heavily. Every day I have either a cup of coffee or a cold glass of water on it, 12-15 hours a day.I'm not sure if it was the weather or the moisture in the air while using these, but eventually the one coaster I used every day began to grow mold. This happened after about 2 years of use.For the price and the look, I feel like I got my money's worth out of this item and could potentially have had to do with the weather and moisture changes from cold glasses. I would probably order these again if I needed more for company, and would look great in an Asian-themed room/house.Updated 6/24: A few months after writing this review, I started cycling through the coasters and they are ALL starting to fall apart. I docked another star for their lifespan (which was about 2 years tops of light use). I'm not sure if this is weather or moisture related, but the glue that keeps the material of these coasters together is extremely flimsy and again, not a workhorse. Do not buy these expecting a lifelong partner for your cup.
Leather Frame is a nuisance.
October 2, 2013
I know they are just coasters, but I have a couple of problems with them.1) They are difficult to clean. The nature of the bamboo surface and the leather lip make it difficult to clean this effectively and every time I do, I feel like I'm ruining them. Ants seem to have gotten into them also and are able to hide well with the leather lip.2) The Leather lip is annoying and you have to be a bit careful when putting cups/glasses on them as not to accidently put them on the leather frame. Sounds basic but if you are focusing on using the computer or watching TV, the last thing you want to do is pay attention to where the cup goes.The grip well on surfaces though and are stable.Probably best for decoration more than practical use based on the fact that these things really don't like to get wet or dirty.

Some Production Issues...
May 4, 2017
Although I like the way these look, one of them has an issue with the border not being attached on one side and an area with some sticky residue. Do I have to send back all 4 to get a replacement for this single one with an issue?
Somewhat okay
March 30, 2017
I like these Place mats. However these brown ones need to be washed prior to use to avoid the stain on the bamboo from getting on napkins and skin.

December 30, 2016
These placemats are going to work for me after some effort on my part. They arrived extremely dirty and I had to take them to the garage sink and wash them thoroughly. After drying I have applied wood polish and they are beginning to show some very nice color. They will require one more coat of polish at the very least. The color of the placemats should not be considered uniform as each one has its own characteristics. They have great potential.
Would be great if there was quality control
July 27, 2016
I would really like these if the quality control was better. I ordered two sets of 4 and got 4 good mats, two usable ones, and two throw aways. All I needed was 6, but unfortunately the color did not match between the two sets. Stitching on the borders is very poor, I'm sure sewing through bamboo is a challenge, but if you are going to sell a product you need to find a way to produce it correctly. Some of the bamboo strips were kind of shredded with putty added in places to try to repair them. Those pieces never should have made it into finished products. On the plus side, they are cheap and they are much easier to clean than cloth mats. We have used them daily for 6 months and they don't look any worse than when they were new. I may end up ordering more so that I can try to complete a full set.
Beautiful, but the bottom isn't finished nicely
November 23, 2015
I love the top of this product, but the bottom isn't finished nicely. The bottom is like a cheap net material, which is hard to keep clean & doesn't match the high quality look & feel of the bamboo. I have little respect for things that aren't well made in every way, where the only care put into it is on the part that's most visible. That's lame.. & a shame.

January 14, 2016
The condensation from cold beverages causes the coaster to sort of attach to the bottom of the cup and then in mid drink it falls off the cup, if you're not paying attention and don't realize it's attached.
Wood is much lighter in color than advertised.
March 30, 2015
**The wood is much much lighter than advertised and does not match the table I purchased these for.**- Otherwise quality is decent, and what you would expect for the price.- The coasters are light in weight and sometimes stick to the bottom of cups with condensation.- Although it says shipping is 3-5 weeks, I received the the package within 6 business days.- Would not recommend if you are concern about the color, but can't really complain for the price.
Disappointed
October 25, 2013
I bought these coasters because they looked simple and I liked the aesthetic. However, I am left with some buyer's remorse:1) There is a "Kona" watermark on the bottom of all the coasters that is not visible in the Amazon picture. Personally I do not like watermarks on my products. It makes me want to grab a brown sharpie. :P2) The coaster is smaller than I was hoping. It fits a normal glass just fine, but it does not fit a mug.3) There was some kind of problem with sourcing this product. It took almost a month for my order to ship, and it held up other important items in my order.I hope the manufacturer makes some improvements to the product.

As other reviews warned, these definitely get moldy after a while. They look lovely, though. Just don't plan on actually using them.
Looks looks great works not so great
January 18, 2017
These coaster look awesome and fit our decor perfectly. Unforgenetly the coaster start to mold after a few uses. If not for the mold issue, these would be a great buy.
Nice but no good if you actually use them as a coaster.
August 8, 2016
I rate this product 2 stars although I purchased them some time ago they began to grow mold on them. I keep a very clean house and only used them for there purpose . I was disappointed that this happened, especially since I paid a higher price at the time.
So disappointed
May 30, 2015
So disappointed. The good - The appearance, and construction of the coasters is excellent, I have had several people comment on how nice these look. The not so good - They are molding! I have not had them all that long, and we are just getting to the warm season where my glass may sweat, but at least three have now begun to mold, one day a couple of spots, a day or so later a large number of spots that are large colonies. Cleaning the coaster at first sight makes me feel better but the bamboo is stained permanently.
Seemed good at first
September 27, 2013
Bought these as I like an ice cold drink on the end table while I watch TV at night and a glass of water on the nightstand while I sleep. Other coasters have been a problem with condensation and even mold. These coasters seemed like a good solution. The faux leather trim seemed really faux, but know that the bottom is also the same faux leather. After about a month or two, the faux leather bottom actually came unglued from the top bamboo half on two of them. Threw the rest in the trash and ordered the next try.
Not really absorbent & definitely NOT thirstystone!!!
July 23, 2013
I have ordered several Thirstystone coaster products in the past and love them for their great absorbency. This bamboo style however is not made of the usual stone the other coasters are. They are made of paper, vinyl and a tiny little layer of bamboo that would only degrade and most likely mildew and mold in a short period of time. They look nice but if you are expecting them to hold anything but the smallest amount of condensation you will be disappointed.

Wanted to love it / like it....
July 10, 2017
First go around - 1 placemat arrived damaged, one of the slats has snapped and looks awful. Promptly returned the item and was issued a refund. Second go around - ordered the item again, 1 of the placemats is, again, damaged. In the process of returning the damaged item yet again. There is no third times the charm for ordering online... hopefully for those of you who like the look, you receive this functional yet decorative placemat unblemished. Disappointed to say the least, quality if otherwise acceptable for price point.

Impossible to keep clean
These fell apart after a couple of months.
December 7, 2016
These are good for show. Doesn't seem to hold up to actual use. Besides the fact that they're so light you don't dare to actually eat on them (yes, totally an oversight on my side).I have another set of Bamboo placemats that I've had for years. They're starting to fray in places and I wanted to replace them with the same material. But these simply started coming apart. I decided to replace them with cloth mats and toss the set.

February 1, 2016
The placements are very attractive, especially for the price, although I initially reported that two were somewhat flawed, with the adhesive webbing showing through. When I reported that the quality of the mats was inconsistent, I received a prompt reply with an offer to receive replacement mats. The replacements mats arrived promptly and I now have a lovely set of four on my table.
Very disappointed
November 25, 2015
I am bummed as I love the look and size of these mats, perfect! But 2 days out of the package and the strings started fraying ....BOO. I really wanted to keep these for a long time, guess quality is a thing of the past.
Mixed bag of feelings
May 5, 2015
I like the concept, design, and the visual aesthetics, but the quality was very poor.Received my order with faded colors as if the color was just brushed on with poor water color paint.I don't like the idea of my food being around fading paint.Also, there was a big chip, crack on another.I'm in the process of returning this item.If I can exchange it for a natural, no added color and brushed smooth with no varnish of sort, then I would exchange it for those.

ITEM NOT AS PICTURED! BUYER BEWARE!
July 7, 2016
Item came in an all wood designed style. We specifically bought this because it's solid black on the outside (to match our living room furniture) and then that wood design you see in the photo on the inside of the coaster, giving it a nice elegant look and a smoother transition between the colors and surfaces. Now it just looks like we bought the wrong coasters and doesn't match at all in our living room. Talk about false advertising.
Buyer beware you will not get the correct item!

I hate it when I see a picture and I base my purchase of that picture and receive something different. Was this an expensive buy no. Will the ones I got still work, yes. But when you get your item and you open it up and are like this is not what I ordered and look at what you ordered and look at your item and they are different. It's like what the f.......
Falsely Advertised!
October 21, 2015
Not as advertised. The coasters do not have black rims. The entire thing looks like wood and it is almost like the coasters are incomplete, even the bottom has the wood look to it without any grip. And they're extremely light, they literally just push around the table.
Useless

Very disappointing coasters. Two big failures:1) these are too small for standard size coffee mugs and wine glasses. Why didn't they make them just a touch bigger?!2) any drink that creates condensation- in other words any drink that is cold- ends up sticking to the coaster when you pick it up... the coaster then falls off mid way to your mouth and dumps the condensation into your lap. Why didn't they bottom weight these things?!In hindsight I wish I had not ordered these.

Nice addition
June 28, 2017
So far so good with these. They seem to hold on to the moisture a little longer than I would expect, but they look nice and came in a cute holder. It goes really well with the look of my home and I haven't noticed any issues with liquid going through the bottom. My only concern is that at times it seems as though the liquid it soaks up from the moisture makes it seem as though they may warp or twist. So far they seem to dry flat however so I'm content.-Update-These went south kind of fast. I'm not sure if some were not sealed properly, or if it's something else, but mold and mildew started appearing on them within two months of use.

Very nice at first. Tell u put one away wet that you thought was dry then they mold.
Falling apart after just a week
September 10, 2013
I loved that these coasters were bamboo and came in a nice box, but right out of the package they had a horrible chemical smell that made them unusable for the first couple days. I'm not sure if it was the adhesive or something from the factory, but they smelled horrific.Once they aired out and I started using them, they worked great especially because they're wide enough to accommodate wider bases so larger coffee mugs and my beloved mason jar mug. However, after a week or so, if the glass you put on them sweats a lot (like a ice cold glass mug) the water seeps from between the two layers and accumulates under the coaster which somewhat defeats the purpose. I thought maybe it was just a defective coaster so I grabbed another one and after about another week the second one was doing the same thing.That brings me to the construction. These look nice at first glance, but when you get them all they are is a sandwich of pleather base around a cardboard core, a square strip of sewn bamboo pieces, and a small outer ring of pleather -- all this held together with some weak sticky adhesive that appears to break down after exposed to... moisture?All in all, I'm disappointed as these looked much better and fit the style of my desk better than the stainless steel coasters I also got, but at least the stainless ones hold moisture off my desk.
These reek of chemicals

These are reasonably attractive (very dark brown, btw, not black), but they off-gas a disturbing chemical smell. I washed the backs and left them out in the fresh air for two days and they still smell horrible.
Mold!
June 23, 2012
Within a couple days of using these, they had mold on them!!! Since their purpose is to absorb the sweat from glasses, one would expect they would be mold-resistant.
Don't Buy Turns Moldy
May 2, 2011
After using these coasters for a month or so I noticed one was covered in mold. I thought it might be due to it being stacked towards the bottom with water still on it. From that point on, I made a conscious effort to let a coaster fully dry before returning it to the holder. Low and behold, I found all but one coaster completely cover in mold. What a waste of money.

And they are either dirty or color off easily
August 16, 2017
Rough and ugly. The product came with unfinished thread ends on every single one of them. And they are either dirty or color off easily. I've tried to wipe them clean several times. Yet it still came off with dark colors on my wiper.
Not worth it.

Cheap product. When cleaned it's all black dirt that comes off even after 5-6 cleanings with wet towel. Towel turns black. Intend to return.

Food gets stuck in the bamboo slats and they slide everywhere. Defeats the purpose of having a placemat.
Cheap quality and destroys fast - do not buy
March 31, 2017
I initially was very pleased with the product and thought it looked nice when it arrived but not even one week later, the black border has begun to come off. The thread is frayed and pulling apart. Really cheap quality and was essentially a waste of money. Would not recommend or buy again AT ALL.
AVOID!!!

Beautiful look, but HORRIBLE quality. Seams not even finished.
Don't waste your money
August 22, 2016
Awful - the placemats looked as though tape had been placed across the wood for a long time then peeled off, leaving shiny bands of adhesive residue and pulling off the dark stain on the wood. Not even usable.
