The best cutting board: The Totally Bamboo Kauai

The Totally Bamboo Kauai Cutting Board has the best feel and balance of all the cutting boards we tested. It’s heavy enough to pass our stability and balance tests, but light enough to easily maneuver and clean. Plus, its 14.5 x 11.5-inch size makes it a perfect choice for most household cutting tasks.

The Totally Bamboo board also looks beautiful, thanks to a two-tone bamboo color scheme. Bamboo looks like wood, but it isn’t. It’s a hard grass that grows very quickly, making it a sustainable, renewable resource. Some say that bamboo is too hard and can dull your knives, but we didn’t measure any noticeable dulling during our tests.
