I purchased this set of bamboo cutting boards for much less than what they cost at the local home-goods store. I was very impressed with my purchase. The three sizes are great for different purposes. We use the small one to put hot pots under when we want to put them on the table. The larger two are great for cutting, and I've found that they're much easier to cut on than the plastic cutting boards. The wood is attractive, strong, and serves the purpose. One tip--I'd be careful with washing them, and preferably hand wash instead of putting them in the dishwasher. They're a little delicate, and the finish gets a little bumpy with repeated wash.
