A good cutting board is essential for any kitchen. It saves your countertop from cuts and scrapes. It makes it easy to chop up ingredients and carry it over to the stovetop, and it’s easy to clean. So what else can a cutting board do? While most of them can’t do much, the ChopBox Smart Cutting Board takes the idea of a cutting board to the next level.
The ChopBox Smart Cutting Board, which hit around $1.4 million pledged on Kickstarter, is a one-of-a-kind cutting board. Made out of organic bamboo, it features a dual board design for easy separation. One side of the board also has a built-in scale, so you can know instantly how much of an ingredient you have. There are two knife sharpeners built into the base, plus it is waterproof so you can wash it easily. There’s even a stop-watch built in so you can easily set a kitchen timer without needing a second clock in the kitchen. On top of all this, it has an impressive UV light built into the device that will kill most germs you missed washing the produce.
