Core Bamboo 10488AM Amazon Exclusive Bamboo Cutting Board Set, 3-Piece

I have always preferred bamboo cutting boards to their plastic counterpart... they do not dull my knives, and are frankly nicer to look at than stained plastic cutting boards.

The only issue I have found when purchasing bamboo cutting boards is that they can be pricey to get a substantial thickness... if the price is inexpensive, the board is probably paper-thin.

I decided to take a gamble and try this three-pack of bamboo cutting boards. I have seen others available on the site at or near the same price-point, but I loved the rounded edges of these boards, and their story of ethical responsibility to the environment and the people who craft them. I was very skeptical about how quality they could actually be because the price was so cheap!

I must say, when these arrived in the mail I was taken-aback by how much heavier the package was compared to what I was expecting; each board was substantially thicker than I expected.

These boards are extremely handsome and worthy of counter-top display if you are tight on drawer space, the corner hole for holding the board doubles nicely as a hole to hang the board up and out of the way too.

I am very pleased with my purchase and will definitely purchase Core Bamboo products again. I have started looking into other products they make and this 'spun' and 'crushed' bamboo line of kitchen products look beautiful. Quite honestly, I also really like having something unique that all my friends do not have!

When I purchased this set of bamboo cutting boards, I was primarily motivated by the price. When they came 2 days later, I couldn't believe how happy I was. I have purchased Core Bamboo products in the past and love them all but this deal is simply the best yet. This set would easily be worth more than double the price Amazon is charging for it.

The quality of the boards is just as good as you would expect of Core Bamboo. They are thick enough to handle being used but thin enough to easily store them when not in use.

The 3 sizes in the set are perfect for just about anything you want to cut and prep. I use the 8 x 6 for cutting apples or prepping cocktails. I use the 11 x 8.5 for cutting veggies and preparing sandwiches and the 13 x 9.5 for carving meats and poultry. I wash them with warm water and soap and they are holding up beautifully! I have owned bamboo cutting boards in the past from other companies and this set is by far the most superior of them all.

Regarding portability, they are the perfect thickness, making them extremely easy to store, whether you live in a big house, small apartment or college dorm.

All in all, this set is a great buy and I highly recommend it to anyone!

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I'm not in love with these. While it may be a good value for 3 boards, they're thin, which is good for storage, but the lack of a gulley/grove around the edge to catch drips is a huge disappointment. These boards are great for cutting fruits and veggies, definitely not good for a thick juicy steak. Also had a large juicy tomato that eventually leaked/ran off the board onto the counter. The lack of any kind of friction on the bottom permits the board to slide around the counter top, and that is driving me nuts. I'm going to check the hardware section for something that could be applied to prevent sliding without taking away from the natural beauty of the boards.

I bought a set of these about a month and a half ago. They seemed pretty sturdy at first, and I didn't have any of the problems with then splintering that a few people had described. I noticed a couple weeks ago though that the largest one had warped a little bit, and it was starting to crack where the strips of bamboo were attached together. Today it broke in half while I was cutting some chicken up for dinner. The mid-sized one is starting to show the same cracks, so I'm guessing it's not going to last much longer either. So far the smallest one hasn't started cracking, but I'm sure it'll happen eventually. I definitely wouldn't waste my money on these. If you're going to get bamboo cutting boards, get something thicker and sturdier. Or buy a different material altogether.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I have to admit, I was a little surprised by the size of these cutting boards. I love bamboo cutting boards and have owned many since they became the rage about a decade ago. Usually, the boards I have are clunky and well over an inch thick. The Core Bamboo boards are much thinner than I'd imagined. In fact, they're really not much thicker than 1/2 an inch tops. Despite this, they seem to be incredibly durable.

The set comes with three sizes. One is perfect for herbs, garlic, ginger, and shallots. It's really too small to be useful for much else. The middle board is the one I've designated for vegetables and seafood, and then the larger board is my meat board. For food safety reasons, I always use a woodburning tool and mark the initial on the side of the board that's used for each food classification. So on the medium board, I have a "V" (vegetables) on one side and an "F" on the other for fish. On the meats board there is a "P" for poultry on one side and them "M" for beef and pork on the other. I can't remember where I learned that tip, but I've always used it.

With a price of just over $16, not only are these boards affordable, but getting three-in-one is even better. They take little space when it comes to storage, and are much nicer on knives than glass boards. I'm sold and hope these boards are still around when I need my next set years from now.
