I wanted to love these. They look cute, but they are LOUD! It’s all a thin metal, and hollow. No wooden substrate or anything. You set a mug on it and it’s like hitting a gong. Looks nice, but we may have to get a felt pad to cover the entire top (easy enough to do because it is recessed — but still).

I wish I knew this before buying. I wake my partner up every time to go to take a drink of water in the middle of the night. CLAAAAAANG!
