Chicago Cutlery Woodworks Bamboo Boards

I have owned two of the smaller bamboo cutting boards for longer with no issue. After about 7 months the sides on this one started to come unglued and warp up. I called World Kitchen, LLC to inquire about a replacement. It seems as though World Kitchen, LLC, makers of Bakers's Secret, Chicago Cutlery, Corelle, Corningware, Ekco, Magnalite, Olfa, Olo, Pyrex, Revere and Visions doesn't offer a warranty on there cutting boards. According to the representative this is due to the fact that they can't control how they are cared for which can affect how they last. Isn't any product just like this. Can a vacuum cleaner manuf. or anyone else for that matter control how you care for the product which directly could cause a warranty issue? No thats why you make things good enough to last through that.

Background. I have been creating wood furniture for many many years, I know how to care for wood and I know how to keep it looking new and yes i could easily fix this but why? And furthermore not everyone has that ability.

The side pieces to this cutting board are completely unnecessary. If they didn't put those on their that would potentially greatly reduce the chance of something happening like this. However they may be there to keep the bamboo in the middle strait. I'm not familiar with the properties of bamboo in that way. So if that is the case then securing the sides on via dowels or wafers would have been ideal to insure a long lasting quality product. However they are just glued on and expected to hold through being wet and dried on a daily basis ... right.

The representative told me that she has had the same cutting board for many years with no issue. I replied with I've had two smaller ones too for a few years and no issue so obviously this is a manufacturing defect. In the in did not care.

The surface of this board is nice though and easy on knife edges. I much prefer bamboo over any other wood for cutting. I can only advise this product if you have the ability to fix this issue if it arises or have the disposable income to fork over money for a new cutting board soon down the road.

Works great and came fast. Just make sure you get the bamboo oil. Without it, when it's cleaned and dry, it looks dusty...almost like someone let milk dry on it.

The first board arrived in three piecesit had never been glued. The second board arrived with a crack, so fine for dry foods, but any liquids come through onto the counter. Not a well crafted item.

This cutting board was splintered before I even had a chance to use it. After one use it was so bad that I'm sure there were splinters in my food. It is not the item pictured and the size is just okay. I really didn't want to buy an expensive bamboo cutting board but I think it will be worth it in the long run.

Board started peeling apart after 6 months. Will not absorb oil to retain moisture. I would not recommend bamboo for cutting boards.
