FAQs
Is this chopping board safe for all types of knives?
It is safe for most standard kitchen knives. However, ceramic knives or heavy cleavers might cause more wear over time compared to softer materials. For best longevity, we recommend using standard chef's knives or paring knives.
Can I place hot pans on this board?
The board is heat resistant up to 400°C, so it can handle brief placement of hot items. However, it's not intended as a permanent trivet, and prolonged exposure to extreme heat or sudden temperature changes should be avoided.
How do I clean the red glass chopping board?
Clean the board by hand using warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse thoroughly and dry it completely before storing or using it again. It is not dishwasher safe.
What are the dimensions of the chopping board?
The dimensions are 400mm in width and 300mm in depth, with a thickness of 6mm.
Does the red color fade over time?
The design is integrated into the glass and is durable for everyday use. Proper cleaning and avoiding abrasive materials will help maintain the vibrancy of the color.
Can this be used as a serving platter?
Yes, the stylish design makes it suitable for use as an elegant serving platter for cheeses, appetizers, or other finger foods.
What is the weight of the chopping board?
The chopping board weighs approximately 2.5 kg.
Troubleshooting
Board is unstable during use
Ensure the board is placed on a flat, stable surface and that the anti-slip rubber feet are clean and making full contact.
Scratches appearing on the surface
While scratch-resistant, very sharp knives or abrasive cleaning tools can cause marks. Use appropriate knives and clean gently with a soft cloth.
Difficulty removing stubborn stains
Try a paste of baking soda and water, gently rub with a soft sponge, then rinse and dry.
Board feels slippery after washing
Ensure the board and countertop are completely dry. The anti-slip feet work best on dry surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: No assembly is required. Simply place the chopping board on a clean, dry, and stable countertop. Ensure the anti-slip rubber feet make contact with the surface for maximum stability.
Compatibility: This chopping board is compatible with most standard kitchen knives. However, using very sharp or heavy-duty cleavers may increase the risk of scratching or chipping the glass over time.
Care Instructions: To maintain the board's condition:
- Cleaning: After each use, wipe the surface clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
- Avoid Dishwasher: This board is not dishwasher safe. High temperatures and harsh detergents in a dishwasher can damage the glass and the rubber feet.
- Extreme Heat: While heat-resistant up to 400°C, avoid sudden extreme temperature changes (e.g., placing a very hot item on a cold, wet board) to prevent thermal shock.
- Storage: Store the board flat on your countertop or in a cupboard. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent moisture buildup.
