Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of RSVP International 18x18-in. Marble Pastry Board.
Customer Review: Just plain WOW
Summary: 5 Stars
I wasn't sure what to expect quality wise considering I paid under 70$ but it arrived today and I am very impressed, the stone is polished to perfection, the coloration is gorgeous and it's incredibly heavy, which I like because now I won't have to worry about my work surface shifting while rolling out doughs. The only difference between mine and the one in the picture other than obviously being a different piece of stone, is mine has sharp corners and the one in the picture has rounded. Tips for prospective buyers: this is not a cutting board, it is a pastry board so don't use knives on it (I'm sure cookie cutters are fine, but no sharp blades. with a little TLC this item will last generations). If you don't think it's cool enough just chill it in the freezer for about 15 minutes.
EDIT: just wanted to add on, that I used this board for a particular candy recipe which requires pouring 260 degree liquid onto a FROZEN marble board, to be honest I was TERRIFIED that the thing would explode from the temp differences, but it did just fine!
Customer Review: A Packaging Gamble
Summary: 3 Stars
I'm not sure if the these slabs are forwarded to us directly without inspection by this seller on Amazon, but I did receive mine with a small chip on one of the sides. Obviously the chipping occurred before packaging since the missing chunk was not included in the adequate packaging which pretty much seals the board. It doesn't seem like a good idea to use knives on this surface and it makes me cringe when I read about people doing so. It's a *pastry* board. People also need to beware that it's (a) very heavy and (b) slippery when wet. If you have critters and/or children underfoot, take extra care when handling this slab. If you're accident prone buy some steel-toed shoes.Customer Review: NOT A GOOD WORK SURFACE
Summary: 2 Stars
I was so excited when I bought this board...I consider myself to be a careful person and take good care of my belongings. This board has chipped, stained and the shiny finish it came with disappeared shortly after I put it on my kitchen counter. I clean it every night when I'm doing the dishes and cannot get the shine to come back. We've never cut on it or placed hot items on it, but it's stained and nothing I've used to get the shine back has worked.Customer Review: Don't waist your money
Summary: 1 Stars
Don't waist your money on this. I received my order yesterday and knew instantly that the board was broken because I could hear it rattling around in the box. I opened the box and yes the board was broken because is didn't have enough padding to ship such a heavy & fragil item. Now, I have deal with the hastle of returning this, I"m out the money for the board and shipping and don't have the pastry board that I needed this weekend. What a shame.Customer Review: Heavy Duty
Summary: 5 Stars
Ordered this about a month ago. It was intended to cover 1/2 of a double sink for extra work area. I was very surprised at the quality. VERY heavy duty and meant for long life and durability. I liked this Item so much, I ordered a second one today to use as a workboard on another counter. The packing was awesome. The only suggestion is if they could find a substitute for the massive amount of "puff foam" that is non-recylable.
