I have a couple nice, thick maple Boos blocks and had to get this as an interim replacement when I relocated temporarily. After it arrived, I realized that I had already bought this exact same cutting board several years prior.
This cutting board is end grain and the wood surface holds up well to a fair amount of knife activity. It is a bit small for my liking, but I'd also think a full sized butcher block is too small. I guess I'm just a space hog.
Anyways, it serves it's purpose well and is at a reasonable price. It won't replace my Boos block any time soon, but I don't think it's marketed towards doing that.
Be sure you oil this regularly every couple of weeks and dry it well after washing it, otherwise the wood will warp. The older one I have is now a concave shape, but it still works fine in my vacation apartment.
The rubber feet on the bottom are cheap, and you should just take them off from day one so you can use both sides of this. Without the rubber feet (which will fall off on their own after a couple uses anyways), simply put a dish rag underneath the board to stabilize it. Easy fix.
If you're looking for the best cutting board in this price range, this is probably it. If you can afford a bit more, go with a larger Boos Block and live without regret.
