Fantastic for cutting and serving alike. Also very easy to clean, especially when working with fruits and vegetables only. Only trouble with the first one was that it arrived with about 1/4 broken off and small bits of rubble clacking around in the packaging; however, within 72 hours of lodging my complaint, I had not only a brand new cutting board (no requests to return the broken one), but also a nifty little 10% off coupon on future purchases. Will be using this site over e.g. Amazon, Overstock for most of my home needs.
