Excellent cutting board. I was using plastic, which began to have knife marks in it. I didn’t want to serve plastic chips to my family, so I sent for the bamboo cutting board. Light weigh, washes beautifully, good price, the perfect size for everyday cutting ,and no knife marks,

Bamboo is the best! Don’t forget that.
This is a great bamboo cutting board! The finger or peg hole is a great idea for storage and maneuvering. The juice groove could be a little bigger, perhaps a quarter inch wider. The cut outs on the long ends of the backside help you pick it up from the countertop if you’re not using some sort of grippy, trivet, riser, type of support… definitely quality made. Forget other high-tech materials that ruin your knives. Mother nature made the best cutting board you will ever own. Natural fiber, cutting boards do require a modicum of sanitary efforts if you’re familiar with the kitchen at all. Use lemon juice, there are many natural sanitizing solutions that nature has also provided for your kitchen. For wood or bamboo cutting boards, season them with food grade mineral oil before use… After that, lemon juice makes a great sanitizer between foods being cut. Never use strong chemical detergents or put in dishwasher. Always hand wash and never risk cross-contamination between foods. Your knives will thank you. A titanium cutting board is like using diamond brake pads on aluminum rotors… you wouldn’t make it around the block… I would’ve given this Five Stars if the juice groove was slightly wider and twice as deep. My interest in the culinary arts started over 30 years ago and every cutting board I’ve used, and I’ve used every kind, was always second place to bamboo. Outside of that material, the only thing you need to care about is size and design. Any kind of metal cutting board is going to lose any investment you have made in your knives. Nobody wants plastic, even if it lasts forever… And because it lasts forever… even a dollar store bamboo cutting board is better than titanium…

Exactly what I need
I really like this traditional bamboo cutting board. While plastic ones are very common, it is not very healthy. And metal ones are bad for your knives. This bamboo one is durable, healthy and doesn’t hurt my knives. Size is perfect. Price is reasonable.

Lightweight, functional bamboo cutting board
I got this bamboo cutting board in the 14.9” x 9.6” size. It is a little bit less than ½” thick. All the edges and surfaces are smooth. I like that I can use either size. I also like that it is pretty lightweight. I like that bamboo isn’t as easily damaged by water as wood and is typically a sustainable resource. While bamboo can be harder than wood and therefore gentler on knives, this board feels pretty soft. So I think it will be gentler than other bamboo boards on my knives.As a side note, don’t put this in the dishwasher. The current listing says multiple times not to put it in the dishwasher, but I swear that it said dishwasher safe when I checked before putting it in the dishwasher. I was excited to test this claim out because who puts a wood or bamboo cutting board in the dishwasher? I do; I guess. But don’t do it! It is still serviceable but has a nice size split in the side. Bamboo shrinks back down to normal size as it dries, unlike wood, so I hope that when it fully dries out it will go back to shape. But I am definitely hand washing from now on.Overall, this is a mid-quality cutting board but a good value at the current discounted price. I probably wouldn’t choose it for the current full price. It is functional and just the right size and weight for what we needed. It will be in our regular cutting board rotation for our non-meat foods that need chopping.
