? About the Bamboo Carving Board

[sfdavis918]

I have a host who ordered this earlier this month. She used it to carve a chicken on and washed it with hot soapy water. The finish on it is ruined. Also the color of it is not the same as mine, it is much lighter. Here are a couple of pictures of what I am talking about. Is any of this normal?

I don't see the pictures?

Whoops, I tried to upload them and they were too big so I thought I erased that line! I am going to try to do it from photobucket. Back in a flash.

Wow, hers looks horrible. Send it back.

Sorry about the size. I have now since learned how to resize.:angel:

I wouldn't worry about the lighter color....but it looks bad. Did she scrub it with bleach? I have a hard time believing that hot soapy water did that. Call HO for her.

I have noticed after running my new bamboo items thru the dishwasher that they fade but they still have a nice smooth finish. I agree send it back! It looks rough!

I had the same problem with mine last Jan. I called HO and they replaced it. I now don't put the turkey or any thing hot out of the oven right on it which has seemed to help.

The same thing happened to mine the first time I used it. HO replaced it. Haven't had a problem with my new one but haven't used it much.
