Review: A Cutting Board That Actually Makes You Want to Cook - Worth Every Penny — A True Heirloom Piece I finally understand the hype around John Boos boards. This thing is absolutely beautiful in person — substantial, perfectly finished, and built like a piece of furniture more than a kitchen accessory. The maple grain is gorgeous and the thickness gives it an incredibly solid feel on the counter. What surprised me most is how much it changes the experience of cooking. It makes prep work feel intentional and enjoyable instead of rushed. Knives feel great on it, it doesn’t slide around, and it instantly makes the kitchen feel warmer and more professional. I paired mine with Howard cutting board oil/conditioner and the wood came alive immediately. Expensive? Yes. Regret? Not even slightly. This feels like something I’ll still be using 20 years from now.
Review: Outstanding Value for a Handmade in USA Cutting Board! - I recently purchased the Boos 15"x20" x 2 1/4" x maple cutting board as a supplement to my Boos 12" x 12" x 1.5" board. The first thing to keep in mind is that you need to oil your board heavily when you first receive it with either food grade mineral oil or Boos Mystery oil (a mineral oil cocktail). Oil it until it stops absorbing oil, then apply the Boos board cream to all surfaces and allow to cure overnight. Wipe off all excess residue and your board will be ready to use, just reapply oil and/or cream as needed. I nearly purchased a 12" x 18" x 2.25" Boos end grain black walnut board through a chef's supply vendor but the price was a pretty bitter pill to swallow. As well, I realized that my knives have held up very well using the smaller edge grained maple board by Boos, though, I am sure that end grain boards may be easier on your knives. The 20" x 15" x 2.25" Boos cutting board is a winner on every level, it is well made, a great value and looks absolutely fantastic on the kitchen counter! Oh, it is rather hefty and not for the slight of frame. Persons of shorter stature may be better served by a thinner, lighter weight cutting board. This Boos, however, is great if you use a 10" chef's knives regularly, it just has the necessary real-estate to make food prep easier and more enjoyable. My set up includes: The aforementioned John Boos cutting boards, Boos Mystery Oil and Board Cream, and Zwilling Professional S and Miyabi 600 D knives. Pros: Big beautiful slab of maple Made in USA Easy on your knives Rock solid build quality NSF approved Price Cons: Big heavy slab of maple Effectively increases countertop height Verdict: Perfect for the amateur chef You need one, yes, you really do! 5 Stars Plus! Update 2/4/2025: I added a 15"x20"x2 1/4" Cherry Boos Block to our kitchen around 6-7 years ago. Both boards are still in excellent condition and I expect they will outlive me. Just follow their care directions, use the Boos Mystery Oil and Board Cream, the applicator is also handy and well made. As nice as the maple cutting board is, the cherry is at another level! Buy good knives, and good cutting boards to help maintain their edges and it makes prep and cooking a real pleasure!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Last chopping board you’ll ever need.
*by R***A on April 3, 2026*

If you haven’t done your research on how to maintain and care for a boosblock board do yourself a favor and read some of the tips and advice on here. Firstly, it comes dry. Very dry. You MUST purchase the mystery oil and the cream to oil it and seal it before use. I took someone’s advice on here and oiled it for 3 days and 2 days of cream seal. Probably could have used another day of oil. I didn’t take a picture before I oiled but think dry 2x4. The pictures I provided is the color after 5 days of love. I finally gave it the final wipe and used it to break down a slab of New York strip steaks. Board is thick heavy and truly feels professional grade. Should have decades of use if properly used and cared for. The surface area is massive. It’s own work station for sure.
