Also received a sample from Emily, which I am yet to test out. The benefit of the dark hardwood back from before is it gives off a premium look, whereas the new light ‘MDF’ board looks like exactly what it is; MDF (compressed fibres)
That sure is a big difference in weight, and the fact it no longer repels water, doesn’t give me confidence of it remaining perfectly flat once pressed. You’re 100% right about the coating and it being unmatched. The majority of coasters have a yellow tint to them.
