Garvee 24 x 18 Inch Large Teak Cutting Board - Extra Large Wooden Cutting Board With Juice Groove - Reversible Butcher Block Cutting Board for Meat and Veggies

This teak wood cutting board is a BEAST - twice the thickness of normal wood cutting boards. There is no doubt about it providing a solid base for any chopping, cutting or food prep. It fits nicely in my food prep area, sitting between a glass cutting board on one side, and a standard thickness bamboo board on the other. After using this board for a couple weeks, I can report that does not show any scratches, cuts or stains. It cleans up nice, and can still be polished to an attractive shine. Love it!

I ordered the extra-large teak wood cutting board primarily for when I make bread and pasta. The 18” x 24” size is perfect because it has enough work area to easily knead the dough. I have found that even though it’s heavy (and that’s good), it does slide around on my granite counter top so I use a silicone placemat between the counter top and cutting board and that keeps it from moving around when in use. I’ve also found the ‘juice groove’ keeps some of the additional ingredients (such as cranberries) from rolling off the cutting board while I work them into the dough. When I’m just kneading plain dough, I flip it over and use the smooth backside.The teak wood is absolutely beautiful. The primarily light color with some dark highlights brightens up the kitchen, and the wood grain structure really makes it pop. There are also some cutout grip handles on either end and that makes it easy to grab and flip over, or just move around on the countertop.I highly recommend this cutting board.

This board looked really nice in the description and the pictures were beautiful, but they do not do it justice because it is absolutely gorgeous. I have had the same cutting board (really nice, large Bamboo) for over 23 years and I never saw another one that I really liked. I am so glad I have had the opportunity to acquire this one. Although I was able to get it at no cost as a a VINE reviewer, I would buy this in a second, it is by far the nicest looking and well-made cutting board I have ever seen and now I own it.There isn’t much more one can say about a cutting board, but this is made from Teak, put together with precision and finished to a smooth, polished surface and treated with oil (they said vegetable oil, but I will use my usual cutting board treatment when the time comes. The properties of Teak wood are incredible for moisture resistance and hardness that makes it an item that will last a lifetime and I will probably pass it on to my daughter eventually .Even though it is considered “reversible” I am going to put some non-marring small rubber feet on the flat side to raise it off the counter and keep it from sliding like I did with my bamboo cutting board with stainless screws. The only slightly negative thing I might say it the blood groove is a little rough, so I touched it up with some 400 grit sandpaper. Finally, I think the price of $69.99 is amazing for a product that is so impressive and well made, I might just buy another one for my daughter for Christmas.

Just beautiful was the very first thought I had when I pulled this out of it's box. This had a good weight to it and the side insert handles are great making it so much easier to move from one place to another. The grain and colors are stunning..I love this so much that I decided I am not going to be doing food prep or cutting directly on it, instead I placed my glass cutting board on top of it 🙂
