Product Description

From the original bamboo cutting board company, Totally Bamboo, this cutting board is a beautiful, functional, ecologically sound addition to any kitchen. Bamboo is 16% harder than maple, making it an excellent cutting surface. Bamboo is actually a grass that grows to a harvestable height of 60 feet in about 3 to 5 years, growing as much as 2 feet per day. It has an extensive root system that continually sends up new shoots, naturally replenishing itself. It does not require replanting, making it one of the most renewable resources known. Totally Bamboo uses 'Moso' timber bamboo which is neither a food source nor a habitat for the Giant Panda. Totally Bamboo's cutting boards are assembled with approved food-grade glue -- none of their products are made with formaldehyde-based glue. No dyes or stains are used in the manufacturing process. The pleasing designs are created by combining originally-colored bamboo with steamed bamboo, which darkens due to caramellized sugars within the wood. Totally Bamboo prides itself on using only premium hand-selected bamboo, innovative design, exemplary craftmanship, and fair labor policies.

Customer Reviews

Better than other wood boards at this price
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!

Excellent cuttng board, great price
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.

Outstanding
These cutting boards have sold me on bamboo. The board is hard enough to get crisp cuts on herbs and the reduced cut marks don't catch food particles. Plus they really add a rich look to the kitchen. Many people immediately start asking about them when they walk into the kitchen.
