5.0 out of 5 stars Great Butcher Block, March 20, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Island Bamboo 23-by-18-Inch Encinitas Professional Butcher Block (Kitchen)
This is the finest Butcher Block I have ever owned. It looks good and it cleans up better and easier than I expected. Wipe it off and it comes back to it's original color which is just like the picture shows it is. It is very hard and the knife does not leave grooves in the board. I would buy a new one but I do not beleive I will ever need another board that is how good this one is.

5.0 out of 5 stars Even better than pictured and good value -- amazon sucks at shipping cutting boards though..., December 15, 2011

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Island Bamboo 23-by-18-Inch Encinitas Professional Butcher Block (Kitchen)

This was my 3rd attempt at ordering a cutting board from amazon. For whatever reason amazon packs them loosely in a large cardboard box with none of those inflatable pads they usually use. I tried twice to order a big-block epicurean board (that was more fragile than this) and corners broke completely off those. After 2 failed attempts on that board (compounded by the fact that amazon suddenly marked the price up on the item 40%) I opted for this one which by comparison became a much better value.

Unfortuantely, amazon packed this board the same way--loosely in a bigger cardboard box--so it banged around inside the box the whole way to my destination. So it has dents and dings on all sides and has one big black smudge on a corner. That said, as a result of my failed attempts previously, general dire need for a cutting board, and belief the damage is bearable I decided to keep this.

The item itself actually looks even better in person IMO. It's very large as mentioned but I wanted to mention the feet on the bottom are threaded and capable of screwing off if you happen not to want them. That's pretty nice. You could also then go to a hardware store and buy rubber feet and/or replace them down the road if you needed to. The feet are slick bamboo so on my granite counter the board slides around very easily with these feet--I might change them out if it annoys me enough.

Other than that it exceeded my expectations. Will just have to see how it holds up over time, if it splits apart, molds, etc. For now (other than the insufficient shipping) I'm quite happy with the item.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice size - not so nice construction, May 19, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Island Bamboo 23-by-18-Inch Encinitas Professional Butcher Block (Kitchen)
This cutting board is huge! I love the size. Unfortunately the bamboo sections are starting to delaminate and crack. I do not know how long this baby will last.
