These are my favorites. I have a large, medium, and small.

I also have 2-3 different sizes of wood or bamboo for cheese. Really only use those for entertaining.

I saw those at the my local hardware store and wondered about them. Wood composite/paper and it’s dishwasher safe? Cool.

Just read an amazon review that mentions formaldehyde. Hmm…

Okay, looked it up and not so bad. But one might want to let it offgas several days at first, just for the scent.

We have three, all wood — one smallish with handle (used the most), one very large, and one medium sized my dad had made for me. It’s my favorite. :)

I usually keep it out near our stove, but am about to oil it. I guess I don’t need to cover my name. :D

I have too many.

I have 2 wooden ones, 1 my brother made for me.

I have several assorted sizes of the silicone types*. And 2 silicone sheets.

The largest one of them has a juice edge and fits the width of my farmhouse sink. I can use it to "expand" my counter space as needed.

I REALLY like that!

What I do NOT like about the white plastic ones, is that they warp ever so slightly. I'm about to toss those.

**edit

Came back to change silicone types to BPA Plastic free.

but they still warp.

One small plastic, one small wood, and one large wood. I also have two large plastic for fish.

I have 6:

A smallish walnut wood that my BIL made for me. I use it daily, and chop small vegs on it.

A larger wood for more volume chopping.

A plastic for raw meat and red beets (so they don't stain my woods).

An XL wood with juice grooves for carving turkey/meats.

2 pretty wood ones for entertaining, cheese boards, etc.

I counted mine the other day after watching the video about excess/old kitchen contents, lol. I have 15! All but 3 or 4 used regularly. Small ones mostly for extras in dog meals b/c they are DW safe.

Three wood - small, medium and large plus two silicone mats for raw meat.

Technically I have 5 but 2 are the really thin bendy ones which I don't cut on but sometimes use to hold what I have chopped when the board I am cutting on gets too full - like with stir fry or vegies soups, things like that. It's nice because they are easy to funnel into a pot or pan. All are plastic.

What I wish I had done when building was make a butcher block section of counter. I love Boos cutting boards (or any quality board) but they are thick and just more added height to a short person's work surface.

Ooooohhhhhh....DLM....Boos makes fantastic cutting boards!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have this little pile of cutting boards, the front 2 are bamboo. Hubby will use the counter tops if I don't have cutting boards readily available.

I have a "custom" cutting board a guy made for me. He made custom furniture & cutting boards with the left over wood. I have another one on top of the microwave. 6 total!

3 - same ones that Sue has

1 big wooden one with juice trench

1 small one that DS made me by the bar

I have quite a few cutting boards. Honestly my favorites are a new set of simple white BPA-free plastic cutting boards from Williams Sonoma. I used to use the composite paper-like ones but they kind of got weird after a while and seemed to flake off with use. I like to be able to throw cutting boards in the dishwasher so I don't use wooden ones.

I have two Epicureans in slate, the largest and next largest. I love them. They're lightweight, easy to clean, don't slide around the counter. The larger one sits next to my sink all the time, and that's why I opted for the charcoal color, since it blends in with my counter. I have an even larger white one made of something I'm not sure of, that I only use when I need to roll out dough bigger than my Epicurean.

I have a few that are used really as trays/serving platters.

One in front of the toaster as a "landing area."

A very small one for mincing a shallot or garlic clove

A large white plastic one.

This one for slicing hot proteins:

I went bonkers with cutting boards when I had marble counters and still love having lots of them. Loads of BPA free cutting boards in lots of sizes and some mini-eco something cutting boards just the right size for slicing a lemon. We store them all flat in a top drawer.

4 wooden ones for cutting and/or serving/decorations.

I was using the different colored plasticy type ones for veggies and meat, but got a stainless steel one for Christmas I am liking more than I thought I would.

I have seven. One is wood and is used for serving only. Of the other six, three are Epicurean and three are white (silicone or nylon or something). The two small Epicurean ones are the ones I use every day. I bring out the large Epicurean for turkey or if I have a ton of chopping preparatory work for a recipe. I suppose I should donate or toss the three questionable white ones.

I lied. I have 7. There's an extra pretty one that my realtor gifted me last year that I swear I'll use at some point.

I have a 7 1/2’ butcher block counter in the kitchen, plus a thick butcher block that I used on the peninsula in a previous kitchen. I’ll use that one by the stove when chopping fresh tomatoes to make a pasta sauce.

We were so happy with the bb counter after we finished our remodel — plenty of room for both of us to work side by side when prepping.

I have 4 cutting boards. One extra large for slicing a prime rib roast. One bamboo, my favorite, its small and I can whip it out in a flash. One that is wood and marble, mostly used as a trivet and another wood one, that I give to the person who may want to help me in the kitchen.

I have multiple wood cutting boards, though these are too special to use as my teenage son made them for me. He always says to use them, but I just can’t do it!

Cozzie, beautiful! I like the grinders, too.

I have/had nine! I removed the four we rarely use, all wood. We use the plastic/nylon ones the most, partly because they go right into the dishwasher. And of course one is a round one with grooves in it for pizza! Our little 8x10 board is the most used, and is the only one that fits in a cabinet (we have weird cabinets).

Oh, we also have one of these bread cutting boards. We like it a lot, but it is really suitable only for breads. Got it from the church rummage sale for $2.

After the recs for Epicurean, I bought DS a small reversible one for his birthday, he was wanting a small board for his small kitchen.

Not sure what to do with the removed four, One is super-vintage, probably 1950 and used for bread. another I had in my first apartment 1980ish, and it’s in really good condition. But just how old is too old? and what to do with them?

How could I forget: we have a Boos butcher block on top of our DW drawers. I never cut on it. A guest did once... awk

I have many.

Sueb20 – do you have a preference in the Epicure line? with the channel and grip feet, or without? color preference? Can you see what you’re cutting on the darker colors?

I might want a largish one

, ~14x11”

Question, if anyone knows, save her laziness from looking it up: are these theone’s tat Kimball is selling on Milk Street?

Thanks.

PS Sort of tempted to get a sizeable BOOS….$100 size.

I tried the Epicureans out on the counter at the store, and decided with feet was easier to pick up. And it has channel on one side, flat on the other. win-win, I figure.

We have an antique wooden one that sits up on little feet, about a foot square. That's DBF's favorite and he uses it all the time unless he absolutely needs a larger one. I have a mid-sized Epicurean that I use for most everything. I also have 3 or 4 of the bendy plastic ones from IKEA that I use for messy things or for overflow, like someone mentioned above.
