What a great local find in Redmond, Oregon. We decided to switch from polyethylene cutting boards to natural wood, as cutting on polyethylene puts micro plastics into food. An internet search turned up mostly wood cutting boards made in China. And we learned that bamboo is hard on knife blades. We decided to find a local source and discovered Hardenbrook Hardwoods and met owner Dana. He has a great selection of woods and finishes in his shop, where the rich scent of wood dust fills the air. Dana is knowledgeable about wood types and finishes, and offers custom orders. We bought the end cut butcher block option, and they are beautiful. After a few days of use, the blocks shows scant sign of use. We like them so much we will be buying these to give as gifts in the future. read more

This is THE MOST AMAZING gift you can give -- to someone who just moved in, bought a house, got married, etc. You can customize the cutting board on front and back, and it makes a beautiful gift that the recipient will use for years to come (and think of you each time they use it)! Our realtor got us one of them when we sold our house, and moved to Bend, and I've since ordered them for friends and family. The company is so caring and will work with you to make sure you are thrilled with the purchase. Seriously, could not recommend more highly! read more

This company has beautiful products with impeccable service. Hardenbrook Hardwoods worked with me on a bulk, custom order for my clients. I had several questions along the way and never had to wait more than an hour for a response from Dana. Their personal touch through the process and stellar delivery is rare. They met every commitment they made to me and I was in awe of both their produce and service. Their products are top quality and good value when compared to their equivalent. I highly recommend them if you want a classy gift to give your customers without fear of something going wrong. read more

Craftsmanship is outstanding and the service superb. If you want the perfect gift idea or something very nice for yourself, this is the business to turn to and use. Every gift has been a total hit! read more

I ordered a custom Sapele Counter top/ island from Hardenbrook, the end of March.  The old sink cabinet and drawers were in my garage while my kitchen was under construction.  I informed him that dishwasher cabinet was going to be rebuilt, as it was damaged during remodel, the drawers were to the right of the sink cabinet, in my garage. (these cabinets were in the exact place in the garrage with the drawers to the right of the sink cabinet) I was out of town ,Eric said  I would not  need to be home to measure for the top, he knows the width for the dishwasher cabinet and can measure the sink cabinet and drawers in the garage. Mention again,  The old cabinets were in my garage the same way they came out of my house.  Dishwasher space to the left ,  sink, cabinets.   Eric assumed that the dishwasher would be on the right of the sink without consulting me.  When the counter top arrived with the sink installed it did not fit the island as shown in the photo , because he just assumed the dishwasher was on the right.   It was never on the right and he made a mistake.  Rather then apologizing,  he wanted to make excuses, and said " lets not do the blame game"   My cabinet people were there and were shocked at his attitude.  I had guests coming and did not have a sink. The dishwasher cabinet was just constructed by the cabinet people (on the left) and the dishwasher was already installed .  I should have insisted on a new counter,  but could not wait the additional 6 weeks.    I had to pay the cabinet people to make a new dishwasher cabinet to the right of my sink and move the drawers to the left of the sink.($300 extera charge)    There are now two holes in my pergo floor where the dishwasher cabinet was originally attached,   and two holes in my drawer cabinet. I had to have the electrician return to rewire the electrical .  $70,) We also had a disagreement on the air switch hole for the disposal, which I thought would be easy , since I already had so many problems.  When I initially placed my order,  I assumed he would install the sink. , as in past quartz counter top makers always install the sink,  he did finally agree to install the sink. After this was all done,  I sent him a VERY reasonable bill for the change from the cabinet people, $300. , the electrician , $75 and $100 to change out the pergo tiles.    He offered me a cutting board, as compensation, and said the trip to Bend and installing my sink were good enough. (He agreed to install the sink way before delivery, and it has nothing to do with the errors he had made, this was not relevant) This was an expensive piece of material,   His attitude was confrontational.   When an error is made , the supplier should make amends.  I could have been really difficult and demanded a new $3,000 slab for the island.  But I made this work in my home.. Requesting reimbursement for my out of pocket expenses was fair, and very resonable, The cost of my counter was almost $6,000. All my other contractors were shocked that I was taken advantage of like this and thought my $470 reimbursement for my expenses were very fair. This is why I am posting this review. read more

Love the walnut confetti butcher's block. Eric paid attention to all the details from start to finish: he asked if I wanted a monogram (yep!), let me know when it shipped (FedEx), packaged it sturdily, and included clear instructions and a bottle of wood-conditioner for taking care of the block. Plus, he's a nice guy to deal with. The finished product is beautiful. Although the center is composed of probably 200 pieces of wood (hence the "confetti"), it's sanded to perfection and feels like one block. Eric's products would make excellent gifts. They could become family heirlooms. read more

I would like to recommend this company to anyone in Sales that likes to give their clients a "Very Special" gift at closing. I have given many of these boards and always get a very surprised client that they are getting something so special. In fact the other day at a signing I gave my client one of these boards with their name on it and she started crying she was so surprised. I get this all the time and it makes me feel so proud of the quality of these boards. I will continue to give them. Thanks Hardenbrook Boards you are the best.

Eric did a masterful job on a large wood laminated kitchen countertop for a house we remodeled in Bend. He also provided a custom engraved cutting board as a house warming gift for the customer. He was professional and accurate in his time estimates. I would be glad to use him on future projects and give his cutting boards as a unique gift. read more

We purchased a customized cutting board as a wedding present. The woods were beautiful and the bride was touched at the personalization and bible verse that Eric and Kerry were able to engrave into the board. The quality blew me away, I will be going back for more gifts and the bride was so impressed she's planning on ordering boards as wedding gifts for her friends too. read more
