The Claim
According to the promoters of Cut Board Pro being that it is made of bamboo, it means that the surface is a natural antimicrobial surface. Which should be able to resist bacteria easier. Another claim that is made about bamboo is that it isn’t as harsh on the knives that are used with it. While there are other bamboo cutting boards what makes this one unique is the catcher that can be removed for cleanup.

Evaluation
Overall the Cup Board Pro is a good idea. There are similar versions on the market, but this one is made of bamboo with an easy to handle design to it makes it a good choice. There is a sad story behind the Cutting Board Pro. It was developed and designed by a firefighter Keith Young who lost his life due to cancer as a result of the 911 tragedy. His children decided to promote the Cup Board Pro on his behalf. They took this to Shark Tank and were successful at getting a deal with all five sharks. The only issue that is present right now is that Cup Board Pro is sold out at the many locations that offer it. There is some indication that it should be back in stock soon.

We are prepared to give the Cup Board Pro a thumbs up. A lot of those that bought this item have indicated that they partly did so because of the circumstances behind the promotion of this product and they wanted to supports the children’s efforts. But at the same time, they were very impressed with the product itself.
