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.
A working coupon code applied to both color options, which makes it easier to buy two boards for separate meat and fruit prep.
The board can be treated as a low-cost gamble when warping is a concern, especially if a sharpening stone is kept handy.
Some buyers expect bamboo to be better than plastic for short-term use while they decide on a longer-term cutting board.
Wood cutting boards can be cleaned with soap and water, which may fit users who prefer simple after-use cleaning routines.
Bamboo cutting boards can dull knives faster and may require more frequent sharpening due to hardness, silica, and construction materials.
Bamboo cutting boards can warp or split if they are submerged during washing, which can increase replacement and maintenance needs.
Bamboo cutting boards can shed fibers after washing, which can force early disposal.
Bamboo cutting boards can absorb odors over time, which can make them less pleasant for repeated food prep.

Either one is fine for cutting boards.

From what I understand, the issue with bamboo isn't the hardness per se but the silica content.
The wood database does mention that Maples can contain high silica from growing in certain soils.
