Hardwood Reflections Birch Butcher Block Countertops are a stunning addition to any project. Birch is as appealing as it is practical. It is one of the most popular countertops throughout the world. The birch is a slow-growth, closed grain hardwood harvested from sustainable forests. This countertop is a durable hardwood and has similar looks and physical properties to hard maple. Birch is known for its ease of sanding, finishing, and clean look with a consistent color. Hardwood Reflections countertops are made of solid wood staves which are finger jointed and edge glued for a classic butcher block look. A variety of species are available so you can pick a color and style that works for your space. The countertops are sold unfinished, giving you freedom to customize your piece. Remember that wood is a product of nature. The allure of a pure wood product is that no two grain patterns, textures or colors are identical. Wood is affected by soil contents, climate, growth patterns and many other factors. These wonderfully unique features will ensure a one of a kind look for your remodel. Differences in grain, coloring or mineral streaking, as it occurred in nature, will not be considered a defect or reason for a replacement. Wood will also change with time, gradually responding to its environment, and aging with beauty.

A:Â Edward - This can be custom made. You would need to visit one of the kitchen designers at your local store. Once you meet with the designer, they can cost out a custom piece. Typically, there are 2-3 designers per store.

Beautiful countertop

6ft is not 74 Inches
Excellent product, does what it needs to. However, I must have overlooked the specifications, but the 6' butcher block is actually 74". That means it will have a 1" overhang on both sides of a 6foot base. Thats cool, but not cool when you don't plan for it before purchasing. And yes I could cut it, so its not the end of the world. I applied 4 coats of mineral oil and connected it to the base using a nail gun. Looks good, I hope it lasts.

The butcher block itself is very nice and the wood is well assorted. Nevertheless it was hard to find since it was on a different level in the kitchen section. I was looking for some modern easy attachable legs ( like the Hettich Set of 4 for 40 $)since I want to make an office table out of it. It would make sense at least to have on set in the aisle or an information where at least to find the wooden legs in the lumber section.

Josef-that is a great call. Let me bring this comment up to the Home Depot merchants and see if we can make this happen. I think some legs make sense.

This butcher block looks fantastic. I was going to stain it dark gray before installing on top of my electric fireplace bump out in my new TV room but it looked so good out of the box that I just applied three coats of poly and put it in place.

I bought 3 of these, to join into one large counter top, from the same store at the same time, exact same item but totally different once I opened them. Different wood, different pattern widths, different thickness, and different edge. Each individually was very nice, just not all the same so be carefull if your looking for them to match

Easy
Looks good after food grade coating, easy to cut, easy to stain, quality product and not to expensive. Better than laminate and cheaper than granite.

Weird lines after staining
In my case, there were these lines that ran perpendicular to the grain that only showed up after staining. I had sanded to 220 only since the manufacturer says they sand to 150 grit. I recommend either redoing the 150 grit sand before progressing to 220, or using a flashlight at an angle to look for potential mill marks to prevent extra work on your end. Also depending on your butcher block, you may want wood filler. I personally stained with kona by varathane and I really loved the color!
