Why you'll love it: The
Benson Mills Spillproof Fabric Tablecloth is made of stain-resistant fabric, and it looks good too.
A spill-proof tablecloth sounds too good to be true, but that's what this Benson Mills product is. Made from 100% polyester, it prevents spilled beverages — even wine, it claims — from absorbing into the material. Instead, they "bead up [and] can be quickly wiped clean with a sponge or napkin," per the description. Sounds like a godsend for those who have kids.
The Benson Mills tablecloths are actually attractive, unlike the ugly plastic versions that I usually think of when I hear "spill-proof" and "tablecloth" in the same sentence. They come in a bunch of colors, including sage, brick, and gold, to match just about any decorating scheme. However, the patterning may not suit everyone's tastes.
This is a great option for parties because of the durable fabric and the range of colors. The fact that it costs less than $20 (for the 60-by-104-inch option) doesn't hurt, either. With over 1,000 Amazon views and a 4.3-star rating, Benson Hills is customer-approved and recommended by The Kitchen Professor and The Spruce.
The Benson Mills Spillproof Fabric Tablecloth is also available in other sizes.
Pros: Spill proof, nice fabric, comes in several colors, inexpensive
Cons: 100% polyester and pattern may turn off some
