Bambu Cork Taper Cutting Board

I wanted a food safe, yet sustainably manufactured alternative to the plastic cutting boards that I have used for years. In researching options, I came across this cork cutting board. I confirmed with the manufacturer (Bambu) that they don't use adhesives or glues in the construction of these boards (they're molded with heat & pressure). This appealed to me a lot, so I decided to buy one and give it a try. I couldn't be happier with my purchase. It's easy on my knives, very easy to clean, and so far has been remarkably durable. I use it to chop and slice all manner of fruits and vegetables. I thought I would miss not being able to put the cutting board into the dishwasher, but I do not. The only caveat is that you absolutely cannot use a serrated knife on this cutting board. As long as you avoid this, I think that you'll be very satisfied with your purchase.

The small cutting board is about the size of a medium paperback book (one by say Christopher Moore), while the medium size one is a bit larger than your standard printer paper. The board quality is high with the innate cork quality of cushioning, which I find as a rather comfortable attribute. I don't know if it actually helps your knife blade remain sharper for longer (as stated by the manufacturer), but it does feel good while your chopping and dicing. They clean easily and dry fast, without lingering smells or cut lines into the flesh of the board, as you find in plastic boards.

Very good cutting surface; however, please be very careful that what you get is a board that is pretty much going to be used only on one side at a much smaller dimension than one might think unless you consider carefully what a Tapered Cutting board is:

Although it CAN be used on both, it has a radiused edge on one side which makes the board more stable but the effective cutting surface dimension lessens by about 1" smaller on each side. After measuring other boards for what I needed, the 8x12 seemed plenty big relative to regular square cut edged cutting boards, but this doesn't get used as often as it might as it is actually only about 6x10, which means it's too small for chopping most things. Also, the radius edge makes the food more likely to 'fall off'.

This is a good size for chopping 3 cloves of garlic or cutting open a fruit for a bar drink, but not for chopping a small onion or slicing a big carrot. I'd buy the bigger one for the 'medium' use I think

This is without a doubt the best cutting board I've ever owned. Actually, I own the small one, which I bought at a local co-op, and that's why I'm here now, buying the large one. So easy to clean, non-slip, easy to cut on, environmentally friendly, and even when I cut beets, they don't leave behind a stain. So happy I discovered these cork cutting boards!

I wanted to find a BPA free cutting board and decided to try this one. I've had a lot of cutting boards in the past and none of them worked out for a variety of reasons. This one is great! I like the size for smaller chopping tasks. It's a great addition if you have a larger board which can be burdensome to pull out for smaller jobs. Bambu is a great company and makes wonderful eco friendly products.
