I am a big Melissa and Doug Fan. We have alot of the wooden food sets and I love the quality.
The dry erase board is really cute compared to most dry erase boards. My daughter enjoyed decorating the sides of the board. The one issue is the board is too narrow on the sides to put the wooden decorations on without the hanging over onto the dry erase board. When the child tries to use the eraser it won't erase around the areas where the wooden decorations hand over. This can be frustrating for a 4-5 year old.
The eraser is very poor quality. After about 6 uses it doesn;t works anymore so you have to use a paper towel.

Overall the toy is cute, and I like it being wood over plastic but it needs some changes in design to make decoratig and writing/erasing possible.

I would not recommend this. It happened to be the least expensive white board sold via Prime, and so my fiancee and I thought it would be kind of a neat, yet strange, item for the kitchen (for notes, lists, etc.).

If I gave this to a kid, I think I could guarantee you one disappointed tot. First, the sparkle glues don't even adhere to any of the wooden frame or add-ons. When they dry, they slip right off like cookies from a non-stick cookie sheet. Second, the marker dries out in a shockingly short amount of time, and was faint from the get-go.

In general, a truly lousy product. Skip it, both for children and childish adults.

I bought this for my daughter's 8th birthday. She loved that she could customize and decorate it. She uses it to play school with her sister. This is a good purchase!
