Quartet Magnetic Dry Erase White Board, 2' x 1-1/2 Whiteboard, Nano-Clean Surface Resists Ink Stains, Silver Aluminum Frame (SM531)

As a student I would fantasize about the whiteboard I would have once I made it to grad school (nerdy, right?). As a PT student this whiteboard is a necessity! Seriously, treat yo self. I love having the large surface area to draw out as many details as I can without having to erase everything for more space. I commute 14 miles to school and it is nice to have the board available so that I don't have to go either to campus or to a library for large whiteboard access. The board is magnetic which I LOVE because magnetic erasers will stay and I can put up any papers that I want (I'm pretty visual)I totally agree with other reviews that the installation is HORRID. You need a pencil, a level, tape measure, two people, and muscle to get this thing installed correctly and straight. The board was packaged well but I had to fight with the box to get it out.Overall I would recommend this product for any student who has the money and the space for it. My husband and I created an office space around my academic needs so we had a wall dedicated to the whiteboard. It is very large and would not practically fit in a small bedroom even if you had space to slide it behind something. (If you have roommates maybe convince them to pitch in and designate living room space for group study sessions)

I ordered this fully expecting it to arrive bent or broken some how, some way. Surprisingly it arrived a day earlier than expected via FedEx and it was in perfect shape.Now, on to the product review. It's exactly as described. The frame is a matte black metal, and the board is a smooth white with a magnetic back. I've tried several brands of markers and erasers on it so far, and all have worked just fine.Installation is a pain. Of course, installation of any brand of large whiteboard or bulletin board is a pain. But here's a trick - there's a big piece of cardboard inside the box that protects the front of the board during shipping. It's glued in there pretty well, but if you carefully remove it you can then use that as your template to drill the holes to hang it. Just draw an outline of the board on the cardboard, then make all your measurements for where you're supposed to drill into the wall, then place the template on the wall, level it, tape it in place, and drill your holes. Worked perfectly for me and saved me from having to spend half the day taking measurements to make it work!

WARRANTY ISSUES: Boards are severely warping. Our Amazon return period has passed. Amazon recommended I contact the manufacturer. The manufacturer did not respond to our email pertaining to the warranty! We need both white boards returned/replaced due to the warping issues.

It is heavy. Didn't come with the tray but we contacted the manufacturer and they sent it to us quickly, so we trust this brand and would recommend it. Mounting it was a bit tricky because of how heavy it was, but once everything was installed we knew we had the right choice. Instruction was not clear enough but luckily they had videos that will help tremendously.

I got this based on recommendation from a family member my. This is a better quality whiteboard that will last for years and years.My only complaint is that the first one arrived in damaged condition. A large section of the cardboard packaging was missing and there was a lot of a black substance all over the outside of the package. I suspect that this was a return that was already damaged and they didn’t even bother to put in a new box. Thankfully, I ordered it from Amazon and they agreed to send a replacement.

Wow! I absolutely love my magnetic whiteboard! I am training teachers from home and my board is professional! I have , sound pictures with magnets, procedure charts, etc. Everything stays up and the large size allowsme to use both sides of the board with plenty of space in the middle to write. The price is very reasonable for the high quality board and mounting system I needed at home to work with teachers and administrators in my school district via Zoom . My webcam does not show a glare, everything can be seen very clear. I’m so happy!

good good

I purchased 48 x 36 inch whiteboard.But it only measures 34.
