MasterVision Magentic Dry Erase Planning White Board, 1" x 2" Grid, Laquered Steel Surface, Sliding Marker Tray, 36" x 48", Aluminum Frame, Silver (MA0592830)

This board itself seems pretty good for the price.I bought the 24" x 36" version.I took off one star for the very nitpicky reasons below:- The pen tray can only be attached to the long edges. So, if you mount it vertically, you'll need another pen storage solution. Perhaps magnetic pen holders?- The included wall anchors are particularly flimsy. They'll certainly hold the board on a normal drywall wall once installed. They're #6 plastic anchors, so you'll need to drill a 3/8" hole. That will be a tight fit, as it should be. The problem is that when inserting the anchors, you'll need to be very careful to press directly perpendicular to the wall. Any lateral force will cause the anchors to bend and snap. If you've ever installed cheap plastic anchors, you've likely run into this scenario. For a few cents more they could have included much more robust #6 anchors that don't bend nearly as easily.- The included mounting screws are Pozi-drive, not Phillips. Pozi-drive screws really are better than Phillips if you have an appropriate screwdriver or bit. Most buying this board in the US have never heard of Pozi-drive, and will likely just use a Phillips screwdriver. Many of them will be more frustrated than usual with the excessive cam-out. I wouldn't consider this a liability if the small screws for the pen tray end caps were also Pozi-drive, I'd just assume it was intended for the European market. However, they're Phillips, and are quite small. You'll need a small (#1?) Phillips, but with a sizable handle for torque. You're cutting threads into thin aluminum and plastic, so a standard/cheap jeweler's screwdriver may not provide enough leverage.

I have three kids, ages 6, 10 and 11. I have each of their names on the board and "to do" and "completed" under their names. They know they have to complete each item before they have free time. They can scoot the items from the "to do" list to the "completed" list on their own, which they love. It is great because they can get started on their to-do list before I am even out of bed if they are feeling very motivated. Then after free time, I make a new to-do list for each of them. Works out great for everyone.

Two in a row is damaged! This was very expensive and to have this?!?!

We received our MasterVision board in good shape but it arrived without any assembly instructions for the small parts that came with the board. I emailed the sender who promptly responded with an email attachment of the missing instructions. The board is now mounted on the wall. It is nice-appearing and we are pleased with our purchase.

Great white board for when someone needs extra columns and rows for different information in each column and each row. With the lines embedded in the board no need to draw lines or have information going all over the board.

Not much to say about a whiteboard that doesn't streak and does what you simply need it to do. Currently using 4 heavy duty command strips (velcro) to hold it up and it hasn't fallen off either. Clients wront on it with permanent marker and using one of the many tricks to get it off, no residual markings are there.

Ordered two and the frame on one was off so I returned it. The frame on the second one fell apart after three days just sitting on a table. I could not return it because my guy threw the frame away, drilled two holes and hung it with a chain. Did not expect the poor quality. I purchased one two years ago and did not have this problem.

Was damaged when I got it and I went ahead and decided to keep it. After hanging it up after about a week the whole frame came apart which had no bearing on the first damage. Should have read the reviews. Was very disappointed!!

Arrived damaged, expected grid, received horizontal lined. Otherwise great product.
