The John Boos cutting board is robust enough that it won't slide around on your countertop, but it's neither heavy nor awkward. This gorgeous cutting board made of wood is sophisticated enough to serve cheeses and meats on, but it's also a workhorse in the kitchen. Because it's reversible, you can turn it over to utilize the other side whenever you need a new cutting area.

The John Boos cutting board is covered by a one-year warranty. Because it is made of wood, it takes a little more care to keep it in good condition. It should never be left out in the rain or cleaned in the dishwasher, and it must be prepared before use. According to our reviewer, this extra care is well worth it: "Because this board was created with professional usage in mind, it should last most home chefs a lifetime if carefully cared for," she adds. Our tester also mentioned that, while the board appears to be a little large at first, the extra room felt like pleasure when preparing food.

Pros:

• Super sturdy
• Can be used for chopping
• Lots of workspace

Cons:

• Needs seasoning before use
• Must be washed by hand

The ability to put a plastic cutting board in the dishwasher after use is its main feature. The Oxo Good Grips Utility Cutting Board includes grooves around the edges to catch liquids before they run on your counter, as well as rubber grips to keep the board from sliding about on your kitchen counter. The board is composed of polypropylene, which does not hold odors and protects against severe scratches that might occur when using a sharp knife.

Users particularly appreciated the fact that these grips are built in such a manner that they can simply take the Oxo Cutting Board off the surface without having to claw at it or slide it to the counter edge. The other side of the cutting board lacks grooves but may be used for chopping—a reversible board is useful if you're cooking meat or fish and want to minimize cross-contamination.

Pros:

• Features both flat and grooved-rim surfaces
• Nub feet keep it off the countertop
• Dishwasher-safe

Cons:

• Grooved rim is fairly shallow
• Plain design

The J.K. Adams Maple Carving board has a lot of characteristics that make it a wonderful choice for carving meat, such as grooves in the surface and a little slope to one side so that the juices that come out of the flesh all trickle down into a single huge well. This surprised our reviewer, who usually places her cutting board on a sheet pan to catch spilling liquids when carving—with this board, she doesn't have to. This well also makes it simple to scoop out the liquids and utilize them in sauces or gravies.

When you get the J.K. Adams cutting board, you can even add steel spikes to it, which helps keep the meat in place while you carve. This durable board has substantial size and weight that is ideal for large chunks of meat and comes with a five-year guarantee.

Pros:

• Very attractive
• Large enough for a turkey
• Deep wells to catch juices

Cons:

• Relatively expensive

You'll receive a set of four in vibrant colors, each of which is ideal for daily use.

Furthermore, grip markings on one side of each cutting board keep them from sliding around.

The material of this Heavy Duty Grippmat® Set is non-absorbent and non-porous. The colors are appealing, and they can also aid in remembering which board was used for whatever component. Cleaning this board is as simple as rinsing it with hot water and soap or putting it in the dishwasher.

This Sonder LA Motley board is crafted of American walnut with cherry and oak wood ornamental elements. You could find yourself keeping this one on your counter rather than storing it in a cupboard just to show it off. It is also ideal for showcasing food; cheese plate enthusiasts will appreciate how well the board serves cheese and charcuterie. This is especially true given that one side of the cutting board features a large groove ideal for a baguette or crackers.

This Sonder LA cutting board is especially useful because it is reversible, allowing you to utilize either side during meal preparation. If you're chopping up a lot of stuff, the depression on one side comes in helpful for sectioning off one component or stopping spherical ingredients from sliding off the board. Users also mentioned that using very juicy ingredients may result in liquid spilling down the side of the board, so have a towel ready while working.

Pros:

• Attractive
• Padded box for storage or gifting
• Multi-purpose groove

Cons:

• Moderately expensive
• No juice groove

The Thirteen Chef's Villa Acacia Wood Bar Board is a wise choice if you simply need to mince a few cloves of garlic or quarter a lime instead of a full-sized cutting board. The texture of the tropical hardwood is lovely, and at only half an inch thick, it's lightweight, ideal for little chores, and easily stored away in cupboards when not in use. The board is reversible, with one side completely flat and the other featuring a juice groove around the edge. The cutting board has little indentations on both sides that make it simple to pick up.

The Thirteen Chef's Villa Acacia Wood Bar Board may be hand cleaned with warm water and mild dish soap to clean. White vinegar or lemon juice can be used to remedy odors, while salt can be used to remove stains. This procedure was determined to be successful for eradicating the odor of garlic and onion by our tester. It should be noted that this board does need frequent maintenance. Every three months, the manufacturer recommends treating it with food-grade mineral oil.

Pros:

• Easy to store
• Reversible
• Easy to pick up

Cons:

• Requires additional maintenance
• Natural wood may warp in transit

If you value sustainability as much as function and style, Material's TheReboard has lots to offer. It has all of the advantages of a plastic cutting board, but it is composed of recycled plastic and renewable sugarcane. It also has a sleek, basic design and is available in four stunning earthy tones, including "Tide," a light blue that our product tester finds particularly calming.

Pros:

• Sustainable materials
• Pretty color choices

These Totally Bamboo cutting boards are available in three sizes, so you'll almost always have one in the size you require. (Alternatively, if you're preparing a large supper, you can have many cutting boards with various items accessible at the same time.) You'll also want to show off the boards by utilizing them as cheese or appetizer presentation boards. These boards demand attention, from the texture of the bamboo to the rectangular form with rounded corners.

Storage is simple because the Totally Bamboo boards are thin. All three boards are reversible, which means you may utilize either side or flip them over to switch between raw and cooked food. You should avoid soaking them throughout the cleaning procedure, as you would a hardwood cutting board. Unlike plastic cutting boards, wood—or, in this instance, grass—cutting boards require more care between usage and may fracture or splinter if improperly cleaned.

Pros:

• Beautiful bamboo grain
• Slim profile makes storage easy
• Handle cutouts for holding or hanging

Cons:

• Needs seasoning before first use
• Must be washed by hand
