Pros & cons
Pros
- The non-porous plastic goes straight into the dishwasher for a hot, hands-off sanitize
- Cleans up completely after raw poultry or fish, where a porous board can leave you guessing
- Non-porous means juices sit on top to be washed away, not soaked into the board
Cons
- It lacks the softer, knife-friendly feel a wood board gives your edges and your hands
- Plastic wears out sooner than a well-kept wood board and eventually needs replacing
Skip it if
Skip it if you want the knife-friendly feel and long life of a wood board — this trades both for easy, dishwasher sanitizing.
How we assessed it
We synthesized this
The OXO Good Grips utility board is made of non-porous plastic, which means it goes straight into the dishwasher for a hot, hands-off sanitize. That matters most after raw poultry or fish: the juices sit on top to be washed away rather than soaking into the surface the way they can with a porous wood board. It's our pick for cooks who want a board they can truly clean between raw meat and everything else without second-guessing.
The trade-offs are the flip side of that toughness. Plastic lacks the softer, knife-friendly feel a wood board gives your edges, and it wears out sooner, so you'll eventually replace it. If you prize the feel and long life of wood, this isn't that board. Our read is a synthesis of OXO's documented non-porous, dishwasher-safe construction and the board's reputation for raw-meat prep rather than a hands-on test — see how we test.
