Question 1

Can this surface be used as a cutting board?

Accepted Answer

I don't recommend it.  When I got my ARSTAR I realized the it matched my countertops exactly.  Same color, same design & made of the same material.  I use an inexpensive plastic cutting board on my countertops & wouldn't dream of cutting directly on them.  It's a lazy susan, not a cutting board.

Question 2

Does this lazy susan have a ridge on the edge, or is the surface completely flat?

Accepted Answer

It's completely flat without ridge on the edge.

Question 3

Can I put a microwave on this?

Accepted Answer

nope, not strong enough. it’s actually a fairly light weight plastic

Question 4

Is the top weatherproof?

Accepted Answer

This lazy susan is not granite. It is made of CULTURED granite. Cultured granite is technically a composite material typically comprised of granite dust, fillers, and polymer resins as its binder. Composite materials in cultured granite does not necessarily mean that it is any less or more durable than pure granite. Some composite materials in items can actually enhance its durability over the real thing.

I can only answer with certainty that the top of this lazy susan is waterproof when used properly and in its appropriate setting which is indoors. That does not mean to say that it will withstand soaking in a puddle of water won't damage it because it may be possible for long soaks to seep into its underlayer. You also need to think about whether the metal hardware underneath may get rusty. Even real granite suffers damage and erosion from prolonged weather exposure. (Think of the grand canyon and how water has eroded the earth and rock over time to create the canyon.)

So the top is waterproof because of the finish they have applied to it. However, I don't know if the top is weatherproof in the sense that it could withstand excessive amounts of water it could potentially soak in, or sunlight that could potentially bleach it, or wind and ice that could potentially erode its finish and ultimately expose is underlying materials for further damage once the finish is gone. Then there are temperature changes that could also cause the materials to expand and contract.

I would say that there is really nothing on the market that is fully weatherproof. Even a lazy susan made out of pure marble will eventually have its polished finish erode away and stain after awhile; a pure slate lazy susan can still be susceptible to rust on its metal hardware underneath.

However, this lazy susan maybe able to withstand the elements better than most common lazy susans because they applied a finish to it. But I suspect its ability to withstand the elements will only be for short bursts of time at best, and under gentler climate temperature and weather conditions.
