John BoosChop-N-Slice Board 31x20x2.5cm Sustainably sourced Maple wood. Light and reversible. Durable and resistant to cracking. Made in USA..

I wanted a smaller, edge grain, durable board with a groove to catch liquids. This board is the perfect size for small jobs. I would love to have one not so thick, so I could store multiple ones, but I haven't found a quality maple version yet. If you don't already have a wooden board, you will need to buy some conditioning products for it, as it is not pre-oiled. I've had this one for a couple months and the initial month, I had to oil it more often than I expected, but it finally seems to have soaked up all it needs. It should be good for just monthly oiling now.

O produto empenou e descolou partes com poucos meses de uso. Não recomendo.

John Boos stand to it's reputation " great product, best quality". Never had a second thought when I bought this chopping board because I knew it will last a lifetime with proper care and attention. And by the way this is my second chopping board from John Boos, my first is 24X18x2.25 inches. I love it and you'll love it too professionals, amateurs and home cooks alike. Little heavy, but that what makes a beautiful, reliable and heavy duty chopping board.

The groove is too wide for this small cutting board, the surface is not very smooth (for oiling it is better to use sponge or microfiber instead of a kitchen towel). The JB cutting boards are very dry, not seasoned, so you need to spend some efforts on oiling

This is by far the best quality chopping board we have had so I am hoping we get many years of use from it. This particular model is the thinnest one listed on Amazon and personally I would not want to have it any thicker as it would become just a bit too heavy and awkward to handle. The same goes for the size and the next one up would be too big for our work surfaces and cupboards,
