Joseph Joseph Worktop Saver

I bought this tomato cutting board and loved it the first couple of times that I used it. I thought it was so cute. After that, the tomato "sticker" that was on the back pulled off in places. I couldn't believe it is just a sticker on the back. They could have sealed in on there is some way. I ended up having to pull the whole design off because it looked bad with it pulling off in areas. The legs also pulled off with the sticker since they were attached to the sticker. I NEVER put it in the dishwasher even though it states it is dishwasher safe. It was only hand washed. Now I have a flat, clear cutting board that is difficult to pick up b/c it lays flat on the counter top without the legs.

I have purchased a number of Joseph Joseph Worktop savers. They first came to my attention in the MOMA catalog. I loved the strong vibrant designs but not the designer price. I began searching the internet for alternate (translate cheaper) sources & other designs. I have purchased the Orange slice, Kiwi, Hot Lips, Marilyn & Elvis to name a few & have given many as gifts. They are tough, functional & very eyecatching. I have never had any problems with any of the other designs. The Watermelon however did not live up to its promise of being dishwasher safe. My mother had admired my Orange slice & Kiwi savers but because her kitchen is accessorized in red I chose the Watermelon as the best color for her. The first time she ran it through the dishwasher she noticed a blurring around the edges that she attributed to dampness. The second time the design was really & truly damaged. Apparently moisture seeping or forced between the design & the tempered glass left puddles & ripples & strange white watermarks across the face. Since I purchased it as a gift there was a significant lag between purchase time & the gifting occasion & then by the time the two trips through the dishwasher were accomplished months had elapsed. That's a little too long to return for a refund and since Joseph Joseph is in Britain I guess I am stuck with an expensive Watermelon Rind.

If you really love the design go for it. But handwash only!

Great as a worktop saver for putting hot things on (I use this round one for my crockpot) but don't soak it in the sink to clean it, or the backing (which isn't painted on -it's a sheet of plastic) will separate from the glass and peel off. Don't cut on it, because it will dull your knives. Don't drop it, or it will break.

Purchased as a gift, this is the one of the coolest worktop savers I've ever seen. The colors are great, it just looks "happy"! Of course, it's works because it's round, which is not typical for a glass worktop saver. I've put this on my wish list.
