Is there anything on the board that helps it grip to the counter, or does it slide around easily?

I attached some rubber bumpers onto the side opposite the grooves. I used 2 side tape to attach them. got them at home depot. 7/8 in. Rubber Screw-On Bumpers makes up for any imperfections in the counter and it stays in place. no problems, only solutions (thanks for that, John Lennon) it's a nice board, oil it with the organic coconut oil from costco good for the board and your hands i have no regrets with mine it's a permanent item on my counter

No, but I place a dish towel under & that does the trick. It also comes in handy as your cooking. You simply place one end of the towel under & allow the rest to hang. Gives you something to wipe your hands on. Good Luck, hope this helps.

No, there is no grip surface on the board. It is all wood on both sides. That has not been a problem for us.

The stand does not have grips on the bottom, but is designed in such a way that it stays where you put it. The glass is plate glass and that plus the weight of the cookbook holds it in place. Also, I haven't had a problem with slipping when using just a single page recipe.

It does slide very slightly but has not interfered with my use of the product. No trouble with the lock so far.

Its brushed metal and a fridge magnet barely sticks, so it slides down. Maybe a thin stainless steel layer?The same magnet sticks to the sides very well.

It has little rubber feet on the bottom that work real well in preventing sliding on the counter, and the parts all fit snugly so nothing wobbles around. You'll use this alot. Great device.....

I think it does move around. I still own it but it's starting to split. However, you may use the tip people use with mixers bowls. Try seeing if laying down a slightly damp dish towel under the board and see if this stops it from sliding while you are working.

I don't believe so, but I have been using this product for more than a year and never had a problem with the box sliding. This is professional kitchen quality.

I've had this board for years....It is wonderful....very heavy....If worried about sliding, I would just use a piece of that light rubber mesh type shelf liner under it... (available at Amazon.com...search shelf liner).....

Depends how large the board is. You could put a slip free placemat on top so that the edge of the turntable would not slip away from the board. Good luck!

It's pretty smooth. I'd compare it to a Formica countertop; smooth, but not slippery.

I placed a rubber mat under mine. This keeps it from sliding around. My issue was it developed cracks overnight on one side after treating it with cutting board oil before my first use.

Ours doesn't slide around at all. We have two -- one as a boot tray and one as a tray to hold our Golden Retriever's food and water dishes. The trays are on a slate surface. They are an excellent product and value.

It does not have rubber grips, however I use it on a Formica counter-top and I don't have any issues with it sliding around.

I can't comment about using it on a counter. I have it inside a lower cabinet that is 12 inches wide so it has about 1 inch on each side. I haven't noticed it slipping around at all, but I have it loaded with baking pans, cookie sheets, cutting boards, etc., so there's little room for movement. It does have rubberized feet so that it shouldn't slip. Hope this helps. Also, each metal rung can be moved or removed to make the sections larger.

The board has strips of something similar to corse sandpaper to help keep your feet from slipping. I regularly used it bare foot and it didn't bother me at all.

Yes, it absolutely can. I often use one side and flip it over. This cutting board is amazing. I use it daily and love it. Definitely get board oil with it though; that really helps keep your board gleaming. I would also highly suggest getting some antislip padding (like what you can get to line cabinets with). I bought a cheap roll of it at my grocery store and it keeps my board from twisting on my countertop.

I have not noted that it slides any easier than one would expect, but we have a double sink, so the chopping board is not normally on the same sink that the dish drainer runs in to. The spout for this drainer does need to hang out into the sink a little in order to prevent draining onto the counter.
