Our Favorite
Farberware Bamboo Cutting Board, Set of 3
4.5
12,076 reviews
This tough cutting board performs like a several hundred dollar product, but comes at a fraction of the cost. The strong solid bamboo material should last forever - with a lifetime warranty should it be necessary.
$14.99 from Amazon
The Faberware 3 piece Natural Bamboo Cutting Board is one of the highest quality bamboo boards we’ve found, and surprisingly also one of the cheapest. After testing many bargain models, this is one that performs like a high-end board and has the potential for you to use it indefinitely. With its natural bamboo material and simple look, it can be a staple piece in your kitchen for years to come.

Live Edge Black Walnut Cutting Board
4.5
138 reviews
This beautiful cutting board is made of a high quality live edge wood piece. These pieces have a more rustic look, perform just as well as a bamboo board, but come at a slightly higher price.
$24.95 from Amazon
We love the Live Edge Black Walnut Cutting Board. If you want a truly beautiful piece that can be used for generations then this may be for you. While the Walnut material is very good looking, the live edge can get reside trapped inside more easily and requires a deeper cleaning. This is our favorite board in terms of look and durability, but for those looking for the easiest option we’d recommend the Faberware instead.
Premium Option
John Boos Chef Quality Maple Cutting Board
4.4
3,902 reviews
The Boos brand is one of the most recognized brands in cooking, and this board really lives up to the name at a fraction of the cost you’d normally expect to pay
$48.95 from Amazon
For those looking for a chef quality, name brand cutting board, you can pick up a John Boos maple cutting board for under $50. You’d expect to pay hundreds of dollars for a Boos cutting board at most retailers, but this simple yet high quality version is available at a much more affordable price. We’ve tested many Boos boards and while they are extremely high quality, they can start to crack overtime if they are not properly cared for. This is because the material is very thick and has only a simple finish applied, so if you leave moisture on it or don’t properly clean it, the board can crack. We love Boos boards, but if you don’t have the time to care for a high-end board, then you may want to opt for a Faberware.
Larger Option
Extra Large Solid Bamboo Cutting Board
4.8
1,729 reviews
This very large board is extremely durable and large, and one of the best we’ve tested.
$89.99 from Amazon
This Extra-Large Solid Bamboo Cutting Board measures 30x20 inches. For those with a large family or who like to host a lot of friends, this is a great cutting board. Its solid design can last for years to come and it’s one of the most highly reviewed boards. This board doesn’t come cheap, at a price tag of around $80 but comes at a much lower cost than usual extra-large cutting boards.
Best Value
Roots to Table Charcuterie Board Set
4.8
55 reviews
This charcuterie-focused cutting board is very beautiful and comes with a set of charcuterie utensils.
$29.77 from Amazon
The Roots to Table Bamboo Cheese Charcuterie Board is one of our favorite picks for anyone who loves charcuterie. It’s the perfect setup for a quick charcuterie board, with its hidden compartment containing 4 beautiful solid wood and steel charcuterie utensils. The board measures 13.3x13.3 inches so it is a bit small but is the perfect size for cutting cheeses and meats to serve to your family or guests.
