This was only after using for 3 days. DEEP knife cuts, hard to clean food out of the knife cuts. Plastic shedding into my food. throwing these out!! Going back to pampered chef as I have a board that is over 10 yrs old that needed to be replaced. I cook almost everyday and being vegetarian I chop a LOT of veges!! The good ratings have to be bogus! Nope, no attempts to improve, just look at the 1 star ratings and pictures- they are aware and do not care. Looks like many are having this problem and they are choosing not to fix it!! Look back as this has been a complaint since December of 2016!!
I hate to write bad reviews, but these cutting boards simply did not meet my expectations. I do not know if they were a bit warped or what , but they slid all over the granite countertop when I tried to use them. I expected the handle part to grip the countertop, but they didn't. I should have sent them back, but somehow the hassle of doing that seemed like more work that it was worth. I would not recommend purchasing them.
I am very unhappy with these cutting boards. They are not hard as described. When using a sharp knife, it cuts big ridges in the cutting board where bacteria can gather. I would really like my money back.
First I'll say these cutting boards are NOT thick. They work very well and we like the juice/liquid catching trough around the perimeter of each board, but the boards are thin and the troughs are shallow. The biggest cutting board barely fits in our dishwasher, so cleanup is easy. They do a fair job of not slipping on the counter (certainly NOT gorilla grip though!), but it would have been nicer if the black rubber ends were larger. We have some older Kitchen Aid cutting boards that are excellent with think boards and large non-skid rubber ends, but they are no longer available, so these Gorilla boards were a reasonable addition, but not as high quality as the old Kitchen Aid boards. For the price, these are a good purchase
I have owned plastic cutting boards for many years. Of all the ones I have owned, these are by far the best, and probably the last ones I will own (meaning I will not have to replace them or find another brand). They take a knife very well and, although the knives to leave marks, they are shallow - almost like light scratches - not a gouge like the softer boards. The non-skid edges are raised slightly so they grip the counters very well. They also clean up amazingly. Carrots, chili peppers, roasted tomatoes, etc. all come off without leaving stains (I wash the boards almost immediately, so I have not let the foods sit for long on the boards). The only thing I can say negatively about them, is that they have a hole in them for the handle. I personally do not like that, I like solid cutting boards, but most plastic boards do and it does not take anything away from their ability to perform their task. I would recommend these for anyone who likes high quality cutting boards that are easy to clean and do not gouge from the knives.
I absolutely love these cutting boards. They are very durable and handy. The plastic is less porous than a lot of cheaper cutting boards which makes for a smoother surface which is less harsh on my knives. The biggest bonus is the non-slip edges that keep it safely in place. The graduated sizes are also very convienient, and they all fit nicely in the dishwasher. I will be ordering another set for my boyfriend since he likes mine so much. Highly recommend these for any one that does much work in the kitchen.
I was so surprised to see this set of 3 for sale at such a reasonable cost and wanted to have a set instead of so many odd shaped worn out cutting boards taking up space in a small kitchen. WOWW was I shocked to get such a lovely set..., easy to wash and store and one I leave out to use as a little butler in kitchen counter to put a bowl on top with fruits...makes such a cute stand and right there to grab when needed.
I think everyone should own these and I am super pleased over price, quality and shipping delivery...couldn't be a happier customer and would give it 10 stars if I could :-)
The best part about these is that they have yet to melt or deform in the dishwasher, and I use them A LOT! I have had them for maybe 6 months and use them regularly, washing them in a high end Bosch dishwasher - no deformity on the bottom rack. The anti skid aspects are not super functional as the sides really need to be anti-skid, not just the ends. They are great for cutting on the counter or transporting meats from the kitchen to the grill. You wont be disappointed.
The smaller 2 boards are fine, but the largest was warped. The rubber edges don't meet the surface and it spins on the counter when you cut. I have to put a towel or similar under it so it's safe to use.
They're also noisy and dull knives fast.
I bought these on sale (they were a bit pricey otherwise) almost 5 months ago and are used daily. These has held up well so far. Having 3 different sizes is great. They have been put through the dishwasher and haven't warped (like a lot od plastic cutting boards tend to do) at all which means they still stick well to the counter. I have no regrets purchasing these cutting boards. I highly recommend these.
I didn't think I would use all 3 cutting boards, but I do. It's nice to have the different sizes depending on your cutting needs.
These are the best cutting boards that I have ever owned. Well worth the purchase.
The edges aren’t as grippy as I had hope. They have a tendency to slide on my granite.
