if I wanted to I could get a very very fine grit sandpaper and give the whole thing a once-over then re oil. It's actually a fun job.
It's actually a fun job.
Really?
I always thought it was a quick and easy job until I had to do it (and only on a fairly small section). Stains often go deeper and more erratically than you think. If you have water staining you really should let it dry out thoroughly before you try and sand/re-oil which is a pain in a kitchen you use.
That said from a aesthetic bang-for-your-buck POV it is great.

Never understood why people aren't into wood. It's only a faff to maintain if ou want it looking perfect all year around. I cook several times a day and am messier than anyone I know. A quick wipe with a warm water sponge and job done. Around the (Belfast) sink there is some staining but it basically looks fine after 9 months and if I wanted to I could get a very very fine grit sandpaper and give the whole thing a once-over then re oil. It's actually a fun job.
