We have been using them (24x50) and have had no problems with broken glass pieces. I do agree that they seem "dirty".
Never contacted them about it.

This year we have begun to have problems with them being dirty and having bits of glass on them that cause air bubbles when used on the automatic coverslipper. Is anyone else having this problem? They have worked with us to try to resolve it, and have replaced several boxes, but the replacements are doing the same thing.
