Many designers who give advice on kitchen arrangement recommend throwing the oilcloth tablecloth in the trash, replacing it with modern “flexible glass”.
They justify their decision by the fact that oilcloth, although it protects the table from dirt, scratches and other types of troubles, does not decorate the space at all.
However, in practice it turns out that such a solution has more disadvantages than advantages.
Disadvantages of silicone tablecloths
According to housewives who have succumbed to fashionable influences, “flexible glass” has increased stickiness.
No matter how you wipe the surface of the table, your hands will still stick to such products. In addition, such a surface will always leave streaks from the rag.
The second disadvantage is that you shouldn’t even think about moving something lying on a table covered with a silicone tablecloth.
Finally, over time, the “flexible glass” for some inexplicable reason begins to “go” in waves.
Therefore, despite all the research, the best solution for many housewives remains a tastefully chosen ordinary oilcloth or linen tablecloth.
