This is exactly why I use them. Washing my large wooden board in the sink is a pain, and it gets stained when cutting anything like red cabbage. So I use a plastic board whenever I need to cut anything messy or chop raw meat etc. and can just shove it into the dishwasher afterwards. There are compressed wood boards which can be dishwashed but they're literally 10x the cost of a plastic board, so to be honest I'll probably just keep using the plastic.
