Question: Is this wood cutting board absolutely pure wood without any steel bolts or rods in it? I need a board 15.5" (not 18") and may saw to my size.
Document: 1. Only the second online review I've ever written. 2. This is a wonderful block of wood. 3. It is not perfect. This is by far the BEST VALUE for a big thick cutting board based on researching virtually all of them. I can't imagine someone being unhappy with it. The only reason it gets 4 stars and is not perfect is it may not be smooth enough for some. My wife thinks a few spots need more sanding. I think it's getting smoother just by oiling it.
I ordered this cutting board based on all 5 star reviews and every one of them was correct. It is absolutely beautiful and heavy. I like that it has hand grips on the sides for easy moving. I can tell it is well made and I know this will last me a lifetime. I'm in the process of oiling the board now and I can see various pieces of wood taking on a darker shade of color. I would highly recommend this cutting board for those who are serious cooks.
This is a beautiful board.....the wood grain in even and smooth and the 24X 18 is a great size for some serious cooking. Very pleased with the product.
This is a very heavy-duty well made board. It's manufactured by The Bally Block Company in Michigan of solid maple wood. I can't imagine that I'll ever need to purchase another cutting board as this one should last me a lifetime. I also purchased Emmet's Elixir for Cutting Boards, also made by the Bally Block Company. I would highly suggest conditioning the board prior to use (and regularly thereafter) to help maintain the board's lustrous wood.
Not a lite chunk of wood. But the size works out well for my space. It is big, and sturdy (My front door is not this dense). Only down side is where to store it and moving it to and from that location.All I can say, &#34;It's built to last.&#34;
I always wanted a HUGE cutting board but they were so out of my price range. I was so happy to find this board. It's beautiful, heavy and it covers the working area that I use to do all my cooking and prepping. I had a smaller one but things were always falling off of it or not fitting on it. Now I can have everything I need to get the job done on one cutting board. And....IT'S GORGEOUS.
I purchased this in Nov. I think of last year. Its the most beautiful board I have seen, I use it for cutting vegetables, and rolling out cookie and pie doughs, kneading my bread doughs. I don't use it for meat however and have a separate board for that alone. This is seller is wonderful too. I would surely order this again and in fact, may order another smaller one soon too.
This was the best value I could find in the search for a cutting board this size. It looks very nice and is functional.
I received the maple cutting board and it exceeded my expectations! I like its size and will find it useful.
I was so worried about buying a cutting board online because I wanted one that matched my Kitchen Island, but this one is wonderful. I like the size. I put it on top of a cabinet that I set at the end of my island to extend the use of my island and it fit perfectly. It is very heavy and works wonderfully. Each time I use it, it wipes up so easily and looks beautiful. I have never had a problem with any of the products I have purchased from Amazon.
Answer: This block is solid maple its excellent worth the price.
