Oxo Good Grips 15-by21-Inch Cutting Board, Black Edge Review

Oxo Good Grips 15-by21-Inch Cutting Board, Black Edge

The board looked great when it arrived.
Here's the bad news.
You cannot see in the photo but the board has four very small pegs
on each corner. These "grips" create a thin space between the board and the counter.
Although the board does not slip, it causes the board to "bounce
back" after each chop because it is not flush with the counter.
I would not recommend the product for this reason.

I made the mistake in ordering this board with the "Quickness" when I found it at such a good deal plus free shipping! And it didn't help that the web site stated there was only One Left! I could get it before Christmas. And that it matched my measurements exactly the way I wanted it to lay on my counter top. But...When a rectangle is measured it can be measured in different ways. So My LxW was 23.75" Long (Holding your arms open sideways)and x 17.25" (From edge of counter to back splash).
In Reality. The actual measurements of this Beautiful Board are:
17.25" Long (Holding your arms open sideways).
And 23.75" (From front of counter to back splash. Or one could say deep, or depth). But in this case it's LENGTH.
Anyway it will still fit, but it doesn't look as good as it could.
I will be removing the 2 Lips from the ends of the board and pick up some maple and cut a couple pieces 23.75" long, and attach them.
And the 2pcs that I removed, I will just make a 17.25" square board.
Remember that saying...."Measure Twice Cut Once" :)
