Bamboo cutting board?

Sorry, this is a repost because no one answered yesterday actually have used a bamboo cutting board.





Has anyone used a bamboo cutting board? How does it compare to wood cutting board in following criteria:





-hardness


-easiness to maintain/sanitation factor


-tendency for mold buildup


- overall utility?





Do you prefer a bamboo cutting board over other types?

Bamboo cutting board?
Bamboo is actually harder than steel. In China, it is even used as scaffolding to build giant skyscrapers! No need to worry about hardness or durability w/ bamboo.





I love the looks of them, but would rather display them than use them. You cannot put them in the dishwasher, and I prefer to be able to do that. So I stick w/ the plastic boards in various sizes.





If you are looking for them at a reduced price, check out TJMaxx or Marshall's... MUCH cheaper there than at Williams-Sonoma, Crate %26amp; Barrel, or other kitchen stores.
