> 3 dayBrings your board back to life! But don’t wait until it’s dull before using. Once a month is about right. Follow the instructions and your board will stay healthy. No weird smell, wipes right off. I let it sit overnight. Looks like new after each use. With how much these boards cost, this oil and conditioner are worth it!

> 3 dayBoth the liquid and semi-solid wax work well! But that black applicator just sheds and started to crumble first use. Dont bother with it. The wax in the squeeze bottle isnt as easy to get out as youd hope, so youll need to warm it up before trying, same with applying the wax. Great for all your wood kitchen items, not just the Boos.

> 3 dayThe only reason for the four stars is the price: this is overpriced as a package. The oil and cream work amazing and they are amazing products. The applicator is twice as expensive as other good brands. The reason I bought it is because it comes with a cap for the sponge. I wanted something to set it in that would be mess free. The cap isn’t worth $10, but I didn’t see anything else that came with one. As far as effectiveness, I actually like the applicator a lot. Rags are a pain to clean after and so I usually used my hands to rub the oil and cream into the board. I find that the applicator works well and that I actually can use less product for the same results. Again, probably not worth it as a package, but certainly convenient.

> 3 dayIn my the color is not quite what the picture shows. The company responded to someone else’s question saying that indeed the color was off but shouldn’t effect the product, so I took the chance and used it. It’s does work nicely and I’m not upset. I’ll use up the product for sure. My cutting boards and wood tools seem to absorb it well and they look nice.

> 3 dayI bought the Boos board for my daughter, who has been using an old warped board of a lesser quality. Maintaining your board your board is Easy - but you have to commit from the very beginning. What better way to treat a new board than to use what the maker uses? They know that board & its needs. We’ll treat it together initially so she knows what she needs to do. I hope one day, her granddaughter can inherit that board as a well treated heirloom.

> 3 dayUsing both products, butcher block looks great. Ive always just used an oil on my Boos Butcher block. Happy they arrived in a plastic zip lock bag.... Mystery Oil leaked a little. Rats, I didnt think of taking a before picture. In reading other reviews of counterfeit, this label was not applied to the mystery oil bottle, it was definitely printed onto the bottle. Would buy again when Im low.

> 3 dayThese 2 gems are a game changer. I bought a Boos cutting board, so bought the oil and cream so that I could maintain it properly. It is easy to use, and I love the feel of the wood after it has been rubbed in. But the thing that blew me away was when I applied it to an old cutting board I had. For those of you with houses from an earlier day, you may well be acquainted with the pull-out style cutting board located just above a top drawer in the kitchen. I’ve been in my house for over 20 years and never used it. Then one day when I wanted to just make a quick bread slice I remembered it was there. Needless to say, the wood was a mess. Dried out, dirty, cracked, and I didn’t want to put food down on it. So I scrubbed it with some dish soap and water, then used a clean sponge with just water on it to get the soap off and let it sit a few days. Then I rubbed the Boos Mystery Oil in and let it soak in for a few days. Repeated a second time and waited for a day. And then finished off with the Boos Cream. The change is amazing. The crack in the wood is almost gone and the wood looks and feels so much healthier. Wow! Now I’ve done all the wooden handles for my spatulas. It’s amazing to see how wood just comes alive with these products. I think I’m becoming a Boos addict. :-D

> 3 dayGreat product that really nourishes and protects the wood. I also use it as lubricant for my sharpening stone as it’s food safe.
