I've had this cutting board for almost two years now and it continues to be superb! No cracks or anything. It's solid and is holding up great. I use it regularly, too.

What a difference this butcher block makes, it doesn't move around when you are cutting or tenderizing. It's very solid and just the right size.

This thing weighs a ton, is a great surface that has not shown any marks yet, and looks beautiful sitting on my counter. The first board I have not stashed away to reduce clutter, this is a show peice. Just be sure to oil it every other day per instructions for the 1st month.

The product description states the board is 2" high. It's actually close to 3" with the legs. The board at first looked great, until I noticed that two of the sides looks like they patched in some bamboo. I can actually see a seam where the side meets the top, across 2/3 of the board on each patched side.

I'm sure the board will serve its purpose. We have another smaller/thinner bamboo board and I really like it. Unlike the BOO's Wood Butcher Block, the bamboo does not retain odors from onion, garlic, etc. It cleans easily with soap and water. Every few months I had to apply a baking soda paste to the Boo's Block to keep the odors down....and sometimes I had to use a mild bleach solution.

Bamboo is the only way to go.

I have had this block for over a year now, and it still looks brand new. I love the size and sturdiness of it.
