I recently bought these for House of Fraser in the sale (£45) and the boards slide about all over the work top making them more or less useless. I emailed Joseph Joseph about this design flaw and they replied stating that they are launching an updated version in 2011 with non-slip base so I would wait for the update until then.
Other flaws are that the boards mark very easily and are quite small in size.
On a positive they do look very stylish in the kitchen.
So in summary: Wait for the 2011 version with non-slip boards.

I was given the Joseph Joseph Index Plus as a Christmas Present. The Chopping Boards are ok, although a little small and do tend to mark quite easily (mine are already marked after only a few days use).
The storage of the boards is excellent though. It looks very stylish and is a neat solution. Before, I had a load of chopping boards leaning against the worktop and it was a right pain.
My main issue is with the knives. They are not very sharp and I had to sharpen them before I could use them (for the money I would expect the knives to be ready for use). The handles are not great and I find them rather clumsy to use. I will not be using them!!!
If you like the idea and need the chopping boards, I would go for the set with just the chopping boards and buy a decent set of knives.

Overall this is a nice looking set of chopping boards and knifes, admittedly they do have some faults but i do not regret buying them.
I have a small kitchen so space saving equipment is a must. I was impressed when i received these chopping boards and knifes as a gift. They are nicely packaged and look great when in the kitchen.
I have several Joseph Joseph products and have always been impressed with their quality. However i have been a little let down with this product - I'd agree that the surface of the boards is easy to mark, especially if using large serrated knifes or heavy chopping. Having said that i'd expect them to get a bit of wear and tear as they are chopping boards after all and are used regularly.
It redeems itself that you cant see the marks when the boards are in the holder - that still looks as good as new.
I haven't noticed that these boards slip - i have a wooden work-top. You could try a tea towel underneath if you have a granite work-top ?
These chopping boards do have good redeeming features - they are space saving, stylish, easy to clean and dishwasher safe. Overall i am satisfied but, having said that, if i was a more serious chef i would invest it a higher quality product.

Looks nice, but knives are hopeless!
Firstly I love the styling of this product. The chopping boards are ok but the knives are hopeless. I have tried sharpening them and they are no better. Read more

Am I OCD, a little perhaps. I purchased two of these items as wedding gifts so that young people in my family can have the pleasure of non contaminated food preparation. Read more

Erm, look good, I guess.
The knives start rusting very very quickly, so that's very disappointing; the boards themselves are also scored by the lightest of chopping, although are hidden from view once back... Read more

Great product, stylish & practical
Very neat and stylish. Keeps all your sharp knives in one place with colour matched chopping boards. Knives are very sharp and boards are easy to clean.
