As someone with a small kitchen, messy countertops are the bane of my life. With such limited surface space, crumbs and food scraps seem to collect far quicker, no matter how much I encourage everyone to clean up after themselves. If I had a dollar for every time I wiped down my countertops in a day, I'd be a rich woman.
While I can happily commit to cleaning my countertops after every slice of toast, not everyone else in my home seems as capable. If you have a big family with teens who won't tidy or messy kids who love to snack, clean countertops probably feel like a pipe dream, but that's where this viral cutting board from IKEA comes in.
