If you value edge retention, use thin Japanese-style knives, or chop heavily, maple, walnut, beech, or a quality end-grain hardwood board is usually the better primary board.
End-grain construction presents the cut ends of the wood fibers upward—often producing the familiar checkerboard butcher-block look. On a good board, a knife edge can slip between those fibers; the fibers partly close afterward, which is why end grain tends to be both gentler on edges and more resistant to visible knife scoring.
Community Reviews
This bamboo cutting board is appealing mainly for the very low price and the large 16 by 12 inch size, with the juice groove adding some everyday convenience. The main upside is that it is a cheap way to get a separate board for meat, fruit, or backup prep. The main concerns are that bamboo can be hard on knives, may need more frequent sharpening, and can warp, split, splinter, or absorb odors over time. A few comments also note that washing and drying care matters a lot, so it is best treated as a budget, short term board.
Home cooks who want a cheap extra board for light prep, because the low price makes it an easy temporary backup.
Knife owners who already sharpen regularly, because bamboo can dull edges faster and this board may need more frequent sharpening.
People who separate raw meat from fruit or other foods, because the large surface lets them keep different prep tasks on different boards.
Knife-focused cooks who want the gentlest cutting surface, because bamboo can dull edges faster than many wood boards.
Anyone who wants a board that stays smooth over time, because bamboo can splinter or shed fibers after washing and use.
People who wash boards by soaking or submerging them, because bamboo can warp or split after repeated water exposure.
Cooks who want a board that resists odors, because bamboo can absorb smells over time.

I keep amything sharpened at less than 22 degrees per side away from bones, and rinse anything acidic or caustic right away and at least dab it dry, if I am going to use again soon, or am going to eat and whatever before doing dishes.
I collect and sharpen knives, and have been for years, and also have been cooking for over 40 years.
Here's an interesting stat that you can verify with a google search. Microplastics cross the blood-brain barrier and make up 0.48% (by weight) of an average adult's brain. That is 7 grams of plastic, which is about the equivalent of a plastic spoon. There are several articles about this, but here is one from the Smithsonian. the-human-brain-may-contain-as-much-as-a-spoons-worth-of-microplastics-new-research-suggests-1809859...

It is a much lower cost initial investment but will need to be replaced often. If you can afford a nicer option, it will save money in the long-term.

SlickDeals folks have lost their effing minds. It's one thing to artificially inflate the popularity of deals you stand to profit from, but this is egregious.
I wonder if this rises to the level of something the FTC would consider looking into. Every time I visit this site, I feel like I have to double check to make sure one of the employed dirt bags hasn't stolen my wallet.
ETA: 4 people have clicked the 'I bought this' button, which gives the thread a thumbs-up and reps the OP. That means that AT LEAST 323 other users have stopped by (assuming each vote only counts as 1, I suspect Staffer votes count more) to give this a TU because they think it's a great deal. Shenanigans. Open the kimono, SlickDeals - show us the voting on this thread to prove you're not behind the wheel of this insane rating.
