John Boos Cooks Series Cutting Board

No, this board is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the integrity of the Northern Hard Rock Maple, you should hand wash it with mild soap and water, then dry it immediately.

At just under 3 pounds, this is a lightweight board designed for portability. Because it lacks non-slip feet, we recommend placing a damp towel or a silicone mat underneath it to keep it stable on your countertop during use.

Edge grain construction means the wood strips are glued together with the long edges facing up. This creates a durable, hard surface that is excellent for everyday chopping tasks and is generally more affordable than end-grain boards.

No, this model does not feature a juice groove. It is designed with a flat, reversible surface, which makes it ideal for chopping vegetables and fruits where liquid runoff is minimal.

Since the board comes finished with food-grade oil, you should periodically apply a food-safe mineral oil or a dedicated wood cream to keep the wood hydrated and prevent cracking. Regular oiling will significantly extend the life of your board.
