This board does everything I wanted it to do. It is well constructed & sturdy. Appears to be made of good quality products. I treated the white board prior to use with board cleaner (very important trick most folks don't know), and so far the board cleans easy & leaves no images of prior writings. Has a nice quality cork board too.

I've already recommended this board to a friend, and will continue to do so to others. I had to seach high & low to find a board that did all 3 things, white board, cork board & and was magnetic - but I think I hit a home run with this one. Could not find anything like this at the local supply stores, was very disappointed.

Only thing I might improve on is making the board slightly bigger so that you have a little more room to write in each block & even a little more cork board area. Just offer a bigger size for those that want it. But really it's just a great all around multi-purpose board. You can't go wrong with it (plus I like the Company name)!

The dry erase board was just what I was looking for but it was packed in a box where it fit tightly. There was no pacing materials around the board. When it arrived the frame was cracked and crushed in two places. It was an easy return and the second board came quickly - packed the same way. This one also had a crack in the frame but I kept it anyway.Otherwise, as long as they dont change the way they pack for shipping to protect the frame, we would be going back and forth forever.

Love the fact that there's enough space to write long memo's or reminders. Also love the corkboard at the bottom to attach any pictures or invitations to remember without having to use the space on the calendar to write on in the event you have something else to write for the same day.

My only complaint about this product is that in the shipment process, although whoever packaged it tried to put enough paper so the board would withstand whatever beatings it took, it still wasn't strong enough. The top right side of the board was cracked so now you can see where I glued it back together and a piece the black part that cracked is missing (I guess I threw it away without having noticed when I threw the box away).

Overall, I love the product but if you want to buy it, I suggest you go directly to a store to buy it so you won't end up with a broken board like I did which i had to piece together myself as a result of the harsh shipping.

I have this hanging by my front door. I can write on it, hang homework papers from the magnets or use the tac board to hang my child's school calendar! Love it!!

it was very easy to hang too!

I bought this board so that I could keep my son on track this school year. I made little magnets with "points" on them which he accrued when he did his daily tasks. We keep the tally of points on the Saturday column. This board is generally well constructed. However, it could be a little thicker on the cork part. When you push a thumbtack into the cork part, it comes out on the back side a little. So, I wouldn't recommend hanging it on a wall and pushing thumbtacks through it. We lean ours against the wall, so the thumbtacks don't really matter. Could use a place to snap a dry erase marker into place too. Overall, nice concept and well constructed for a reasonable price.

Received this board today and like many reviewers, the box was practically destroyed on the outside. Two corners of the board were smashed, but I won't return it because of time constraints. There was a lot of packaging material in the box, but none of it surrounded the board. It would have been very easy to wrap the board in the paper packaging which would have saved the corners from being smashed.

The board is great. Wish I would have read the reviews on the packaging. Mine came damaged as well. The whole corner was split. Didn't notice till I put it up and by that point it was too late to do anything about it. Hung it on a different wall that people couldn't see damaged edge. Recommend a different option until they get a shipping container that works!!

I love this calendar. There is finally enough space for all six of us. I noticed some previous reviewers weren't happy with the shipping. They must have decided to go with a different box. My board arrived in perfect condition. Definitely recommend this calendar.

I was tired of how paper calendars look on my wall and wanted something that was easy to make changes on. This board does the trick! It was extremely easy to hang with the supplied hardware and I love that it incorporates dry erase, cork board, and a magnetic surface. I purchased a pack of fine-tipped, magnetic cap, assorted color dry erase markers to go with it. Now everything is right at my finger tips, looks nicer on the wall, and is much easier to update. The only challenge is keeping the kids away from it so they don't erase anything with the simple swipe of a sleeve.

I knew there was a chance that this board might be delivered damaged based on other reviews, but still I was disappointed when I received my board. Two corners of the board were completely busted - not repairable. The box that Amazon shipped this board in was too small... it actually was bulging out on one side where whomever packed the board shoved in the box to make it fit. There was no padding around the corners. I would guess that Amazon's packaging department is actually where the damage occured, not with the shipper.

Too bad. I am returning the board for a refund.

If you get lucky enough to receive a board that isn't damaged, it looks to be a great product.
