GORILLA Original Reversible Dishwasher Grip Reviews Summary

Grip and Stability

Pros:

• "I like the rubber that keeps the board in place (when the board is dry and on a dry surface it will stick like a champ)."
• "They grip the countertop so they aren’t sliding around."
• "They are stable and don't slide around on the counter."
• "They have rubber on the bottom so they grip the countertop and stay in place while you're cutting."
• "These Gorilla Grip cutting boards won't slip off the counter while you're slicing. There are rubber-like grips along both ends of the boards, which act like brakes to keep the cutting board in one place."
• "They stay in place really well - gone are the days when I would put a towel underneath my cutting board to prevent sliding."
• "They don’t slide around when you’re using them."

Cons:

• "The cutting board does NOT stay in place."
• "I also learned it did NOT 'grip' at all. It moved the whole time I was using it."
• "Cutting boards look nice but they do not stay put. The rubber doesn't even touch the counter so they slide all over the place."
• "Considering they were called gorilla grip, I expected these to say firmly seated on the countertop. They did not."
• "They do still slip and slide all over the place."
• "The boards slide across my counter like I greased the bottoms."
• "The non-slip claim is very inaccurate. All of them were warped right out of the box and spins around when trying to cut."

Durability and Material Quality

Pros:

• "I love the different sizes and the durability."
• "I've had mine for four years, and I use them (all three sizes) basically every day, run them in the dishwasher just about as often, and four years later they're still solid and are a pleasure to use."
• "The quality is outstanding and the pink borders are lovely."
• "These are just right. Easy to use and store. Why waste your money on expensive cutting boards?"
• "I love these cutting boards. They are so easy to use and clean. They don’t stain and are very sturdy."
• "They are very thick and have a smooth surface and stick to the countertop."
• "They are sturdy, thick, and the rubber edges keep them from sliding around on the counter when chopping."

Cons:

• "The knife blades cut the boards deeply making them extremely difficult to keep clean."
• "After a couple of uses, I already started to see scratches."
• "Cut marks left after every slice when using a high-quality paring knife and non-serrated blade; one side of the smallest board is done after cutting about a dozen pieces of produce."
• "With only 2 weeks of use they are very marked up and have deep grooves in the surface."
• "They're beautiful, sturdy, and easy to handle - make chopping and cutting fun!"
• "Not worth a dime, very heavy but too soft and no cut marks should be on it after the first use and they do not go away."
• "The plastic is soft and knife cuts deep groves in it making it hard to clean."

Design and Features

Pros:

• "I really like the three sizes They are perfect."
• "Like the handles and the grooves on the sides to catch liquid."
• "The cutting surface is great, and the liquid channel is a really nice feature."
• "I like the ridge around the edge of the boards to catch juices when cutting fruits."
• "No need for a giant cutting board if you are just cutting a lime for a cocktail."
• "The cut out handle is a nice feature."
• "I really like the groove to contain juices too."

Cons:

• "I really wouldn’t recommend these because of being able to use only one side."
• "I ordered the CORAL because I wanted a RED accent color and the website shows CORAL as RED. I got the 3 nice cutting boards with an ORANGE trim."
• "I’m not sure what I’ll really be able to use the smallest one for because it’s very small."
• "Nice sizes in the three piece set, however there is not enough grip material to prevent sliding. The small board was the worst, one end grip the other slipped."
• "Like most Gorilla products these are nice, well made and look good. They are, however, smaller than expected."
• "They are amazingly compact yet sized just right for large and small jobs."
• "Rounded sides make it difficult to store upright on counter."
