Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of MIU Flexible Cutting Board, Set of 5
Customer Review: Flexible, sort of
Summary: 2 Stars
I thought these would be much more flexible than they are. We do use them regularly, but they are not nearly so pliable as just picking up and easily curling them to create a funnel for your food. They have a tendancy to snap back, and I wouldn't dare store them rubber-banded up as they would never go flat again. Indeed, our biggest complaint with these is that they just require too much effort to bend one way or another - be it rolled up for moving items to the pan or flat on the counter for chopping.
And don't even think about putting them in the dishwasher, even on the gentle cycle, regardless of what the description says! They get even more brittle in the dishwasher and lose what little flexibility they have.
At the end of the day, I wouldn't buy them again.
Customer Review: Flimsy. Don't bother
Summary: 1 Stars
These are too thin to be of any use as cutting boards and are kind of slippery. They warp in the dishwasher. I am considering throwing them away.Customer Review: Functional but flimsy
Summary: 3 Stars
I think the term "cutting board" is a little misleading. "Cutting mats" would be a more accurate name for them. I was disappointed about how thin and flimsy these mats are. I've used one of them approximately four times and it has cuts that go all the way through the mat. Its only been used to cut vegetables with a santuko knife. I'm just glad I didn't pay more for them.Customer Review: Good concept, but ......
Summary: 2 Stars
I like the idea of having dedicated cutting boards for each type of food, but these are too big for me personally. Also, they use extreme adhesive to put their wrapper on the package - be prepared to use heavy duty adhesive remover, or plan on throwing one of them out (yes, it's that bad).Customer Review: Good value for the price
Summary: 5 Stars
I wanted to wait until I had used these for awhile before reviewing them, based on the other reviews I had read. After more than 7 months I still like these as much as I did the day I got them. Our household sees less cooking than most..only a few days per week. We also do not use a dishwasher, but these are easy enough to hand wash. They live on the counter, between appliances and are out of the way, yet easy to grab. As another reviewer mentioned, I also use them to freeze items individually before packaging them up. I especially love that one board is designated for onion/garlic so that other foods do not pick up the aromas. Flexibility depends on what you were expecting. I can (using two hands) roll it up enough to put what I have chopped into the pan, but not into a funnel shape.
Bottom line - I am happy with these and will be buying more when these need replacing.
