John Boos Block WAL-B9S Square Walnut Wood Edge Grain Cutting Board With Feet, 9 Inches Square, 1.5 Inches Thick Review

UPDATE: the smell is gone.but stand by my original comments.FIRST REVIEW: I treated this board as soon as I got it. I am not new to using these products as I have a giant board. That said, I treated the board with the oil and a few days later I cut up an onion on this board and ever since then I walk into the kitchen and all I smell is onion, I made sure there was nothing in the garbage disposal and I could not figure out why. then it occurred to me to focus my smell on this little cutting…

We have a Boos Block island in our kitchen so I had no hesitation about buying this cutting board as I know that they make quality products. The only dislike I have and it is a very minor one is that the small bun feet raise the board a little too high to be comfortable when it is used on a standard counter height surface. I simply unscrewed and removed them and now it is perfect except that there are 4 screw holes in the bottom side. I think it would be a better board if they just didn't put…

I ordered 2 to use them more as display than cutting boards. 1 s wine board and the other for cooking oils on the counter. They are small but very beautiful and a packet of the oil came in the package with them (bonus). They look great and seem like they will last a long time. Nice for displaying apps or cheese and fruit as well. The Boos stamp was in different locations on them, but both had it - authentic, I would believe so.

Beautiful quality as expected from BOOS. I ordered the mineral oil cream but as a nice bonus they included a sample packet of mineral oil which contained enough oil to treat this board and two others. The picture was taken shortly after applying the oil which brings out the stunning variance in the walnut wood. Product arrived within 1 day of ordering.

I love this cutting board ! It’s the perfect size ,color ,and it is a beautiful piece for my new kitchen. Matches my knife holder.

It's great, I already had a larger cutting board from Boos and was happy to find a smaller one, perfect! Cleaning can be difficult due to the board's thickness.

I bought this for on top of my new butcher block island & I really love it. Its a great size, looks lovely & stands nice & sturdy, no wobble as you get with other footed boards.

This is perfect. Very sturdy and smooth. Came with oil that can be applied periodically after multiple uses to keep it new. I really enjoyed purchasing and supporting something that is made in the US.

I have been a fan of John Boos products for many years. Before I purchased this round cutting board I already owned the 12 x 18 inch Boos Block cutting board and the Boos Block cherry top butcher block table. I love everything I have purchased from this company. I have recommended these products many times and will continue to do so.

I was so excited to get this board due to all the hype but this is NOT SMOOTH AT ALL! Shame because it is the perfect size but it will be going back. Too expensive for this quality. Ehh my cheaper boards have a much smoother finish.

This is the perfect size for me to use. Love the feet on it. Also comes wit a little package of oil to season. Use it a lot! Easy to clean.

You have to love the quality of this Boos Round Wood block. Perfect to leave on the counter for cutting sandwiches, or to just use as a hot plate. The size is perfect. I always use their Board Cream to keep the board looking great.

It is really gorgeous, so well made, and just the right size. I use it to cut veggies in pieces before putting them into my juicer. You can cut with sharp knives and leave no slices or dents in the wood. It's a bit pricey but you'll never need another cutting board. They included some emollient to keep the wood nice.

While the cutting board looked great, I’ve only had it a few weeks and almost all of the seams are starting to split open at the edges (as seen in the photo). I’ve followed the care instructions and purchased their board oil as well. I emailed the company about it and never heard back. Wish there was a way to repair the splits. Such a shame.

Doesn’t look at all like other boards I’ve purchased. Probably should have returned. Top was a bit rough, sides very rough. I’ve been working on it with oil and wax but not much improvement. Huge disappointment, especially given the price.

I LOVE THIS CHOPPING BLOCK! I would recommend this for small kitchens. And I love the little feet that rises it up off the counter so it doesn’t get wet and make it moldy. Perfect size! Very good quality!

I just received this, so consider this an "initial quality" review.The strips of maple are angled/non-symmetrical (see pic)One of (just one) the feet is so far out of position (see pic) that it sticks off the edge of the board. All of the feet are in slightly different positions, this was especially noticeable when I attempted to replace the wooden feet with rubber ones, I will probably still replace the feet with rubber ones but will drill my own holes. It's like they have some guy at…

It’s just perfect to keep on your counter. I put a Le Creuset pot on top of it and it’s a nice accent as well as being the most useful thing in my kitchen

I loved this when I got it. I followed the directions on how to clean it and maintain it. After a week two pieces seperated at the seams. I was able to fix it with non toxic wood glue and seems to be holding up ok. Not sure how long it will last. I do really love how it looks, and works just frustrated that it broke so soon. I did not keep in water, wiped wetness off after cutting it, changed directions on how I cut on it, etc. For this price I expect it to hold up a little longer. I've always…

John Boos is well known for the quality of their wooden cutting boards. These are probably the most affordable option among those boards, but they are still of great quality. Many chefs recommend cutting boards be made of maple as these are.One thing some folks don't know is that you should have several cutting boards and use them for specific things so their is no chance of cross contamination. We bought 3 of these boards. One is for Meat, another for Fowl/Fish and the last is for Vegetables…
