MSR Alpine Deluxe Camping Cutting Board, One Size, Red

I recently purchased the MSR Alpine Deluxe Camping Cutting Board, and here’s my review based on my experience: Initial Impressions The MSR Alpine Deluxe Camping Cutting Board arrived in a compact, well-protected package. As soon as I took it out, I noticed that it was lightweight yet felt sturdy. The vibrant red color is not only eye-catching but also adds a bit of fun to your outdoor kitchen setup. The board is made from BPA-free plastic, which is a big plus for durability and ease of cleaning. Size & Portability The size is perfect for camping — large enough to chop vegetables, meats, or even slice bread, but still compact enough to fit in a backpack or camping gear. It measures 11.5 x 8 inches, which is a great middle ground between providing ample surface area for food prep while not taking up too much space. It’s definitely a space-saver for those of us who like to keep gear to a minimum. Durability & Performance I was impressed by how durable the board felt. I’ve used it for slicing all kinds of ingredients, from soft fruits to hard vegetables, and it hasn’t shown any signs of wear or damage. The surface is scratch-resistant, which is important when you’re working with knives in an outdoor setting. It also has a non-slip surface, which helped keep it stable on uneven surfaces like picnic tables or camp stoves. This made chopping much easier and safer. Cleaning & Maintenance One of my favorite features of the MSR Alpine Deluxe Camping Cutting Board is how easy it is to clean. The plastic material is non-porous, so it doesn’t retain odors or stain from things like tomatoes or garlic. After a quick rinse with soap and water, it was as good as new. Its compact size also made it easy to dry off and store without hassle. Storage & Compact Design The board is designed to be foldable, which makes it even more convenient for camping. You can fold it in half for easy storage in your pack, which is great for saving space. There’s also a built-in handle that makes it easy to carry or hang on a hook. I love the fact that it’s a space-efficient design that doesn’t compromise on usability. Pros: • Lightweight and compact for easy storage and portability. • Non-slip surface keeps the board stable while chopping. • Made of durable, BPA-free plastic that resists scratching and staining. • Easy to clean and maintain. • Foldable design for additional space-saving. • Great size for outdoor cooking, not too big or small. Cons: • The surface can get a little slippery with very wet ingredients, but that’s really only a minor issue. • The folding feature is convenient, but it might make the cutting surface feel a little less solid when chopping very hard items, like bones. Final Verdict Overall, I’m extremely happy with the MSR Alpine Deluxe Camping Cutting Board. It’s the perfect size for camping, easy to store, and performs well under outdoor conditions. I especially appreciate how lightweight and durable it is, making it a great addition to any camping kitchen setup. It’s a reliable tool for any camping trip or outdoor adventure, and I highly recommend it for anyone who needs a practical and portable cutting surface.

Small, compact, robust, easy to clean. Folds in to 5.25" x 7.5". Is always a part of my camping/backpacking kitchen.

Compact, tough and easy to clean. My only gripe is that when you unfold it, it does not lay flat. So, cutting can sometimes be tricky.

Used for camping and worked well. It is a little small but I guess when camping one should be a minimalist.

I use this cutting board along with my GSI buggaboo backpacker, and its really cool because it fits right on top of the pans and under the strap and doesn't stick out at all. It is about the size of a blue ray disc case, or PS3 game case and thinner than any smart phone. The fact that if folds is great for space and for the ability to fold to pour whatever your cutting directly into the pot. Hope this helps.

So I have used this about 6 different hikes now. Overall its small enough to fit nicely in my ruck..... but not quite big enough to prepare a meal on. Where it folds there is only plastic..... no hinge. Eventually I predict a separation into 2 smaller boards which I'm not excited about. Wish it was bigger with a better hinge so that the board lasts. Also, when folded open there is nothing keeping it open. So be careful when you use it. Set it on a level surface otherwise you will be wearing your meal. I could have bought a non-folding cutting board at the local dollar store and been more confident in its durability. Its nice that it folds, but with the MSR name you would expect a bit more in quality design! Minor Update: My Wife came up with using a medium binder clip (metal) to keep the board open. Works a tad better, but adds weight to my pack. However, the binder clip can be used for more things as well like holding the tarp to a cord etc. Still 3 stars I shouldn't have to "fix" their product.

Disappointing. Liked the idea of a folding board for camping but it doesn't lay flat when opened, so pretty useless for a cutting board

We loved having this folding cutting board when we went camping this summer. Very durable, attractive color, easily washes up. Perfect for our needs, yet hardly takes any room at all.

I bought this to use on those occasions when I take fresh foods with me to cook on the trail. Light, folds small to put in a pack pocket....folds out wide enough to trim fat off a strip steak or slice onions, mushrooms broccoli etc....can be used as a plate or work or writing surface. Has multiple uses....great piece or trail kit.

Dépliée, la surface est assez grande Pratique

とくにこだわりが無ければ100均でも買えるまな板ですが、趣味のキャンプツーリングで使うので趣味性の高いものに惹かれて買いました。 一人用のサラダや焼き野菜をカットするのに適度な広さです。キッチンバサミも持っているのでまな板でカットしにくいものはそちらで対応しています。 厚さは5㎜あってしっかりしています。中心部分を薄くして折りたためるようにしているのでいつか切れてしまうのではないかと不安になりそうですが、2012年から2026年（90泊くらい）まで使ってきた今も問題ありません。おそらく、この14年間で開閉した回数が200回程度だとすれば、まだまだ持ちそうです。むしろそろそろ壊れて欲しいくらいです。使い切った感を味わったあと、新しいものが欲しいです。

Lightweight, small and easy to clean.

Excellent and prompt service . Brilliant little gem of a cutting board . It's folded as big as my hand , will use it as a wind break for my wood/alcohol stove and afterwards use it as a cutting board or table . Excellent for backpacking , not heavy but weighted enough to use as a wind break . Very recommended .
