Da Vinci Natural Bamboo Cutting Board Review: 2-Piece Cutting Board Set - 0.7" Thick



The Da Vinci Natural bamboo cutting board is actually just the right type for my family. The reason I say this is because it is very thick, about 0.7" thick, which is great because my father is butcher and we tend to crack, splinter, and go through all our cutting boards in a matter of months. A little mineral oil treatment on this cutting board and I guarantee this baby is going to stay with his for years.

The only thing I don't like about this product is the design, really. Other than that this product is fantastic. It smells nice and it's durable. What more can you want from a cutting board?

Below I have outlined the pros and cons of the Da Vinci Natural Bamboo Cutting board.

Pros of the Da Vinci Natural Cutting Board

  • Very thick and sturdy. Great for those that chop with butcher knives.
  • Very cheap in price compared to other bamboo cutting boards ($15.95 compared to $20+)
  • Comes in just the right sizes. I can use both cutting boards - one for meat projects and the other for vegetables. There's no tiny cutting board that can't be used for anything, haha.
  • There are no dyes or any other type of artificial coloring in this bamboo cutting board. That means that there is a lower chance of fading. And who wants a faded, splotchy cutting board?
  • There is a carved handle for easy hanging.

Cons of the Da Vinci Natural Cutting Board

  • This is not really a con, but it's not made in the USA. 

Amazon Customer Reviews of Da Vinci Natural Cutting Board:

"Experts suggest bamboo cutting boards, especially over plastic, due to the anti-microbial nature of the materials. These boards are lightweight, but still thick enough that they will not start to warp/curl as cheaper boards can. Others have talked about separation of the wood slats, but I've not seen any such problems after a month of use. (I hope they're not putting these in the dishwasher...) While attractive, I would say that these are definitely "working" cutting boards, and not what I would use for food presentation as they are somewhat small and do not have a groove for liquid runoff...fine for me, as I have other cutting boards or platters to use for serving."

"I was so tired of having either a heavy wood cutting board or the light weight plastic ones that I have been looking for an alternative for a while now. I saw some bamboo cutting boards at a store but they were quite expensive so I put off getting one. Then I saw these on Amazon and ordered them immediately. LOVE THEM.They are not heavy but are thicker than I thought they would be and quite sturdy. I have only used them for a couple of weeks now but they clean up well and do not easily scar. They look so nice on my counter top too.I cut up some fruit and cheese for a snack for my husband and I and it all looked so nice on the cutting board I brought it right to the table. Saved me having to use a plate. :-)I am going to buy some for my daughter and my sons! Great price!"
