The first cheeseboard I ordered had to go back because it was cracked- there was a fault in the slate itself. In addition, this board was roughly shaped at the back and looked shoddy.

However, I liked the design and thought I’d try a replacement.

Wayfair’s returns service is really faultless. I submitted photos and a quick report and immediately was accepted for a replacement without having to return the item. The new cheeseboard arrived in a day and was better made, although this slate has been made not from a single piece, but from two pieces of slate joined somehow. I tapped the join and it sounds firm enough, but I am slightly doubtful it will stay in one piece.

Overall a nice design with cute little cheese implements inside.
