Ironwood Gourmet Double-Sided Countertop Lyon Pastry/Cutting Board With Gravy Groove, Acacia Wood 17.25 x 24 x 1.25 inches

Very heavy and solid. Beautiful wood and great craftsmanship in construction. I use for kneading bread, it is sized well. Reverse side will be great for cutting.

Very happy with this purchase so far. Good craftsmanship, looks like we'll have it for the long haul. Will update review if problems arise over time.

I love this board! It’s everything I needed. I would recommend using a non skid cloth under if you are kneading or rolling dough as it does move a little bit (or maybe I’m just too rough, I don’t know. Haha.) It’s beautifully made and I keep it oiled up every other use and it’s still shiny and smooth. And it’s beautiful just sitting on the counter as a staple piece. It’s big enough to roll out pie dough, just to give a size reference.

I bought this board after reading a bunch of articles that mentioned Acacia wood is one of the best materials for cutting boards. While I don't regret my purchase overall, there are a few things worth noting before you shell out $80+ for this board....Pros:- It's a long grain v. end grain board. Research shows that long grain boards are easier to keep clean and sterile than end grain boards.- It's beautiful eye candy for home chefs.- Easy to care for. I oiled it 3 times over the course of a week prior to first usage. Depending on how often you use it, oiling it once/month thereafter should keep it well conditioned.Cons:- Right out of the box, it had a slight warp. It's not wildly noticeable visually, but certainly a board this thick and for this price point shouldn't have that defect.- Finish. Other reviewers noted that the finish wasn't as clean as it should be for an $80+ board. It was planed, but not sanded well. This was easily remedied by using fine grit, then super fine grit sandpaper with my palm sander. However, consumers shouldn't have to complete the manufacturer's job by finishing the board surface prior to using.Final verdict - this board is easier on my knives than plastic boards, but for the price point I expected better quality. If you don't mind putting a little bit of work on this board, then click the "buy now" button.

Love the over the counter lip

I love this cutting board for both its looks and its functionality. The wood grain and tone are very beautiful and rich looking. Functionally it holds on to the front of the counter with the front lip and prevents spills off the back with the back lip - and it is reversible from fully smooth surface to surface with edge juice / gravy groove. It made a positive visual and practical difference in my kitchen - well worth the money.

I've been dying for a giant pasta/pastry board like this for some time, and after saving up some extra, I decided to pull the trigger on this one. It looked hefty, with a beautiful grain, and I couldn't wait to do my holiday baking on it!I got it and was disappointed to see gouged corners, and tear out where the channels were routed (first 3 photos). Lots of ragged edges, and certainly not what I expected from a board as expensive as this one. Disappointed, I packed it up, and sent it off to be exchanged.I got the second one a couple days ago, and just now had a chance to open it up. I knew it was a bad sign even it was covered in wood crumbles and sawdust. This one had an even larger corner broken off, and just as much rough, ragged routing on the carving board side. I decided I'm not willing to try for a third time, and will be returning for a refund.Neither box was damaged, but neither has any sort of packaging or padding (not even a sheet of tissue!) to protect it on its travels. I don't know if the damage was taken on during shipping, or if it left the warehouse looking like this. Either way, I'm very disappointed. The search continues, if anybody has a better recommendation I'm all ears!

This board has some serious heft to it, and, it is beautiful. I used it over the holidays to carve roasts and it worked so well. The meat juices collected under the removable rubber grippers are wonderful for making gravy or au jus. I also like that the grippers are removable and easy to clean.I did season the board, applying oil to it three times before using it.Don't submerge this board in water. I cleaned it with soapy water, rinsed it and immediately dried it with a towel. As soon as it was dry, I applied another coat of oil to it--which it sucked in, and a final light coat before putting the board away. The board looks brand new.I've wanted a cutting board for ages, I'm so glad I held out for this one.

I considered a variety of cutting boards and decided on this one. I’m so happy I did. The size is perfect, the thickness is great and, aesthetically, it’s very appealing. I love the backstop that prevents food from flying away. It’s solid enough that an under-mat is not necessary.

This board is well made and looks it. It has a generous size and is solid, making it an excellent platform for food prep.

This board is perfect size and thickness. Recommend buying the oil to bring out the grain

Item slightly damaged in one corner. Otherwise it looks good

Great solid cutting block however slides around on my stone benchtop so some rubber or silicone pads would have been a nice touch.
