The saucer itself is thick and sturdy. Be careful ordering. The measurements are tricky. You want the measurements of the inside circle not the outer edge. Wayfair is also working on the drop down list. Some of the listed sizes are not actually available and some of the sizes are miscoded. For example the 14.75 " is not available. There's a 10" that is available but not on the drop down list. Hopefully this will be fixed soon.
