Beautiful, functional, sturdy, inexpensive. What more do you need? Jan 11, 2010
By Eric Beyle Love love love this cutting board. Hard rubber gripper feet are secured within the wood, NOT glued on, so they'll never come off. I have the smaller version of this board as well. Just be sure to oil it plenty when you first get it, and once a week for a month, and then once a month after that. Plain mineral oil from the drugstore is fine - it's the same as the "bamboo" oil that's much more expensive.

Wonderful Feb 14, 2008
By Aaron Shepard I don't normally "love" cutting boards, but I love this one. It's simple, elegant, and beautiful. The rubber grips on the bottom are great too, keeping it from slipping around and holding it off the table, so you can put it back there right after hand washing.

Great inexpensive board for the kitchen Jan 07, 2010
By J. Wang Having owned several bamboo cutting boards, I decided to purchase two of these for my mother, who has been using the same cutting board set for almost a decade for christmas. The main purpose was because bamboo cutting boards are much more hygienic, more environmentally friendly (bamboo grows quickly and is a very renewable source), and that it's pretty tough.
The boards do come a little fuzzy at first, but after a bit of use and washing, they become very strong. As is with most lower end boards, cut marks do become visible, but those will eventually wear away as the outer finish of the board grows more weathered. This is nothing bad.
The best selling point about these boards are the rubber feet. While they do take away an entire side of a board to use for cooking, they provide a vital role in keeping the board still while you're dicing (these boards are light and would probably slide around otherwise without the feet; I've had bad experience with other boards sliding around) and also helps air the board while it dries, keeping the bamboo off the ground and letting the water soak in and promote bacterial growth.
My only qualms about this board are the lightness of the bamboo. My own boards are very dark in color, giving them a very rich quality. These boards are VERY light in color, so if you really like matching your cookware, make sure that you have a brighter kitchen, or you may begin thinking these are a bit of an eye-sore.

Architec the Gripper 10 by 14 cutting board Nov 04, 2008
By john anon Architec The Gripper 10-by-14-Inch Bamboo Cutting Board
i have used the cutting board now for about a month and am impressed with how nice it is to have 'grippers' on the bottom. the board does not wander on the counter and both the board and counter are easier to keep clean. at first i used it only for buttering toast and as a hot board as it is very attractive but i have now diced and sliced on it so it will [hopefully] have a long and useful life. very nice product. **** 4 stars

Perfect size cutting board! Jan 26, 2011
By E. Larson
"ng981"
These are my favorite cutting boards. I bought 2 over a month ago and use them all the time. They're stain-resistant ( haven't done the Roasted Beet Test yet though), and a breeze to hand wash since they're bamboo and so smooth. I love the grippy feet. Mine haven't warped or worn at all with heavy use.
NOTE: The actual size is 10" x 14". Not a big deal to me, but be aware.
Wonderful product!
