OXO Good Grips Carving & Cutting Board
Our Best Lightweight Board
Plastic cutting boards may not be as beautiful as their wood and bamboo counterparts, and they aren’t designed to last forever. But these utilitarian boards have their own advantages. Unlike wood cutting boards, plastic boards require no maintenance. They’re thin and relatively lightweight, so they’re much easier to maneuver and clean by hand than heavy wood cutting boards. What’s more, they can be thrown in the dishwasher, a boon for cooks who worry about hygiene when working with meat or poultry. And best of all, they’re comparatively inexpensive, making them accessible to most cooks and easy to replace in the event that they crack or warp.
"Worth its weight in gold for the practical cook who wants to feel confident about putting good food on the table."

Ease of Use
Weighing just over 3 pounds, the new version of our previous winner is the lightest board in our lineup, making it especially easy to lift and maneuver. Happily, its rubbery sides still allow it to sit relatively securely on the counter, though it did slip occasionally. And most testers appreciated the trench built into one side, too. Two small problems kept it from the top of the rankings: Because the board is so thin, with relatively tall rubbery strips embedded in the sides, the middle of the board never made contact with the counter, so it bounced a bit as we chopped, cleaved, or pounded. And the board became concave every time we put it under hot water, though it never warped permanently.
