Kootek Charcuterie Board with Locking Lid is a decent board.
The base is a nice solid wood board with spaces for different meats, cheeses, etc. The board is not too heavy, so it is fairly lightweight and easy to carry. The base is study and will most likely last for some time if hand washed and dried immediately.
The wood must be treated to protect it as it comes untreated. Choose your favorite food safe method.
The lid is a hard lightweight plastic that feels as though it is ready to crack at any second. It will not survive a good pop from anything. Thus, this is not a lid I would use to transport the board from one place to another. Set it up when you arrive, and the lid is great to keep the board items covered. I would not wash it in the dish washer as I doubt it would not warp – we handwashed it only.
The handles are also a cheaper plastic. I did not carry the board by the handles out of fear of the handles breaking off. We did do a test lift, and the handles survived, but I still worry that carrying by the handle is not a good idea.
The latches are not as easy as I would like to latch and since they are also made from cheap plastic, they will most likely not last long if they are used much.
The board looks adorable and is great to have on a table at a party. It also makes a great way to store a board of snacks to have in the frig for family to grab a few tidbits and go. It came with easy-to-follow instructions.
Overall, I like the board itself but have doubts and am not a fan of the cheaply made lid. It is not a good value at $40 (stated regular price) but is a good value at $22.79.
