HexClad Hybrid Cookware Cutting Board

No, this board is not dishwasher safe. High heat and excessive moisture from dishwashers can cause natural wood to warp or crack, so you should always hand wash it with mild soap and dry it immediately.

This model does not feature non-slip feet. However, because it is a substantial, 1.25-inch thick board, it provides enough weight to remain stable on most countertops during standard prep work.

The walnut grain is dense and resilient, allowing it to close up slightly after being cut. When you regularly oil the board, the wood fibers stay hydrated and flexible, which helps minimize the appearance of deep knife marks over time.

Yes, the board is fully reversible. Since it does not have a juice groove or feet, you can flip it over to use either side, which helps ensure even wear and extends the life of the surface.

To keep the wood from drying out and to maintain its self-healing properties, you should apply a food-grade mineral oil or board cream every few weeks, or whenever the wood starts to look dull or feels dry to the touch.

Walnut is naturally resistant to absorbing odors compared to softer woods or plastic. As long as you wash it promptly after use and maintain the oil finish, it will not hold onto strong smells from ingredients like garlic or onions.
