Q. Do glass tables shatter easily?

In extremely unusual cases glassware may shatter however toughened glass is manufactured to break into thousands of tiny fragments. Oven doors Car windows glass cookware shower screens and furniture all benefit from toughened glass because of its durability and resistance to heat. Injuries are less likely to occur since the glass won't shatter into huge sharp pieces as regular (annealed) glass would. Apparently there can be minor flaws in the glass sheets during production. As the fractures become larger with repeated use the object finally breaks. The problem is that there was no prior warning or audible cracking before it shattered.
