The modern design fits well with my other red kitchen utensils. Have been five of these cutting boards and am satisfied with the quality. Because they are thicker, they are well on the work surface and do not bend during the wash. There is no edge enclosure in the time the water can penetrate. The only drawback: the juice fed to the machine runs down. Therefore I take for my Juicy wooden boards with grooves. Of course you can see the plastic knife cuts, so as more or less all plastic and wooden boards. Therefore, they do not last forever, but already several years. Those who do not want to, just have to buy a glass or marble materials and much more sharpen the knife.
