Teakhaus Marine Cutting Board with Juice Groove - Large Rectangle Cutting Board with Corner Hole - Reversible Teak Edge Grain Wood - Knife Friendly - FSC Certified

Replaced my plastic cutting board because I've read so much about microplastics in our diets. The thickness of this product is impressive. It's just the right size to cut up a piece of fruit or a vegetable or two. I love the cut out. So much easier to put in cabinet or drawer. Now that I know the quality and functionality I will order a larger size.

I’m absolutely in love with my Teakhaus teak cutting boards! (I’m leaving this review for the small board, but I have the larger version of this as well.) The craftsmanship is superb—the board looks stunning and feels incredibly luxurious. The juice groove and ergonomic grip handles are so helpful. One of the biggest selling points for me is the moisture (and mold) resistance of teak—no more lingering garlic smells or strawberry streaks on my boards! It’s also much gentler on my knives.As a fan of the Buy-It-For-Life (BIFL) Reddit forums, I debated between Teakhaus and Boos. Ultimately, I chose Teakhaus because of their commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility (their boards are made from 100% sustainably sourced wood from FSC certified forests). On top of that, their customer service is exceptional—prompt, helpful, and genuinely kind. I’m officially a customer for life. Happy cooking!

Amazing

This is a nice cutting board. A good weight, good size. Easy to clean. Wood is better than plastic cutting boards. It keeps plastic microparticles out of my food and my knives stay sharper longer. 4 stars because it came with a minor crack on one side. We’ll see how long it takes to split through to the other side. I have only had it 2 months but it gets used and washed every day. So far so good.

I love this cutting board!! It’s beautiful. And after doing much research on wooden cutting boards, teakwood seems to be the sturdiest and most healthy (as long as there isn’t any toxic finishing on it). Supposedly, Teakhaus doesn’t use any toxic finishing and is a trusted brand for teakwood cutting boards. Will buy more when we have a bigger kitchen!Note: need a buy some cutting board oil for it to keep it from drying out after washing.

Great cutting board and perfect size along with great quality.

First of all, the board I received is beautiful, with a nice smoothly finished surface all around, except for one very small, almost unnoticeable 1/4" nick under one of the handles. So, it's not perfect, but it's no where near the cutting area, and it certainly wasn't worth even considering returning, especially when everything else about the board is so fantastic.Of course the board comes completely naked, with no finish, so it's imperative that you apply a mineral oil finish BEFORE you use it. I used Howard BBC012 Butcher Block Conditioner, and as soon as I began rubbing it in, the wood's grain came alive. It's very important to heat up your mineral oil. The Howard's conditioner (which also contains bees wax) was more gel like when it arrived, and it needed to be heated to the point that it finally became liquid, and that's when it really began soaking deep into the wood. I applied 2 coats the day the board arrived, letting it sit overnight, then applied a 3rd coat the next day. The way it makes the grain shine is amazing, and the bees wax helps provide a moisture barrier for the wood.It's funny, I had thought this 18x14 board might be too large for my tiny kitchen, and had considered the 16x12 board, but this one is absolutely the perfect size. I had also considered some of the 2" thick boards, but again, this 3/4" thick board is perfect. It has enough heft to not move at all during cutting, but it's still relatively easy to maneuver for cleaning in the sink. By the way, it's important to NOT let these soak in water when cleaning, and to always dry them before putting away. Simply clean with soap and water, then quickly dry with a towel.I use this primarily for chopping veggies for my evening salad, and I can't imagine anything more suited for that purpose than this board. I'll report back in 6 months or a year, but for now, I'm a happy camper.

Although I was very enthusiastic when I ordered this cutting board, when I received it I was very disappointed for two things.1. The thickness was not as published. The board I received was about 20% thinner.2. The finish of the board was too rough. Quality control should be better for such an expensive piece of wood! I consider very seriously to return it. I have to mention though, that I also bought the biggest size variant, which was perfect smooth when received.I was very disappointed because I have many Teakhaus products, and I haven’t faced quality issues so far. This was the first time.
