Double the workspace, double the fun. The OXO Good Grips Cutting Board Set come with a medium-size board for food prep and a large board for everyday use, and they’re both double-sided.
Each of these boards is designed with home chefs in mind, from their drip-catching grooves to their easy-pour corners. They even have handles and tapered edges, so you can comfortably carry scraps to your compost bin or trash.
The non-slip feet on the edges of the OXO Good Grips Cutting Boards boards grip the counter as you cut, which makes it a steady surface for everything from carving tender roast beef to chopping fresh veggies for a crisp crunch salad. And cleanup is as simple as throwing it in the dishwasher in between uses.
“They’re really slim—both pieces fit in your dishwasher easily. All the knives I’ve used feel really comfortable, the more delicate ones don’t feel like they’re going to crack when I’m cutting,” said Papantoniou. “You also don’t have to put a wet paper towel or anything underneath to stabilize them, they stay put. They’re also reversible, which I really like—one side has a juice groove and the other is smooth.”
The non-porous, odor-resistant polypropylene material is durable, but it will eventually need to be replaced. While these OXO Good Grips Cutting Boards may not be a buy-it-for-life set, they come pretty dang close. They're a Good Housekeeping Institute fave and have held up great against daily use in their test kitchen over the years.
The best cutting board material and the best wood for cutting boards depends on what exactly you're cutting up. Here are the best cutting boards for all of your culinary needs.
