So far, so good. I have had this cutting boards for several months. I like the concept of bamboo (great durability & no trees have to be harvested). I have owned other types of wood cutting boards in this price range and experienced cracking or warping after initial use. Nothing so far with this cutting board. It is much heavier than I anticipated. Even thought it is heavy, it is thin enough to store easily. I have bigger, heavier cutting boards but this one has become the one I reach for first. Cleans up great. Works great!

I love this cutting board! It cleans up very well, no stains, I feel that I am using the most sanitary cutting board available, and I threw most of my others away.

Update: After about a year, even with oiling, I did get some cracks. However, I repaired them with Titebond III and that has solved the problem. I suspect this will last for years now.

Not sure about the claims of hardness but this looks good, is well designed, and after a few months appears that it will last a long time. Be sure to apply mineral oil or it could split.

After a few months one of the 'raw bamboo' end pieces warped and started to separate from the 'steamed bamboo' body. Now it wobbles on the counter unless I put a towel under it. The grooved edge seemed like it would be convenient but all it seems to do is make the board harder to wipe clean. On the plus side, the surface has held up very well. I will probably replace it with a flat, solid bamboo board.

I bought mine at a local store. I am pleased that I was able to handle this prior to buying. I passed it up on Amazon many tmes.
This is a well made board. It is a pleasure to cut on. I keep my knives sharp and this cutting board accentuates my VERY cool kitchen kutlery quite well.
I wash it off with a swipe of water and a cloth.
I, on irregular occasions, treat the wood with jojoba oil.
Keeps looking good and performs well.
I'd get one as a gift for a loved one.

Beautiful looking cutting board. Heavy compared to my old boards but I think that's the bamboo construction. If I had one complaint, it's a little smaller than I probably should have gotten (for heavy duty cooks who have a lot going on at the same time on their cutting board).

Once I got used to the weight of this board, it has become my "go to" cutting board. Construction is top of the line, no warping or splitting, cleans up in a snap. The fact that it is a beautiful Piece of equipment doesn't hurt either. I bought the "two fer" and all above applies to the smaller cutting board.

It is a solid board. We have been using it for more than 2 months. So far there is no any crack on it.We like it very much and strongly recommend it.

I purchased this board for my Mother as a present. I am a chef and a great fan of wood cutting boards, as they are faster and safer to cut on, as well as better for the knife's edge and beautiful. I use a huge wooden board at home, but most will not tolerate such a big ugly thing in their kitchen. This board is large enough for real cooking, but small and attractive enough to be left out for immediate use. The fact that it is made of sustainable managed growth bamboo makes it that much better. A highly recommended product.

We bought this and liked it so well, we purchased another one for a gift.
The size is good, and the weight of the board is "just right". Highly recommend.
