Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I've hated how ugly whiteboards look for years, so when we found this glass whiteboard, we immediately ordered one for the home office. Due to the size and weight (I ordered the 4x6 size), the product ships with appointment delivery. The packaging arrived this morning completely beat up to the point that the delivery fellow suggested we open the package to make sure the contents weren't broken. Thankfully it was not. The 4x6 size which does flex, so that can feel a bit nerve racking carrying up the stairs. As other reviewers said, it would have been nice if this whiteboard came with a mounting template since it's heavy enough to be a pain to measure directly on the wall. We ended up using a laser level, screwed a support plank into the studs where we wanted the whiteboard to sit, and propped the whiteboard up on that to determine where the holes should go (and for drawing circles on the wall). I recommend discarding the drywall anchors that come with it (they are the cheapest anchors ever) and getting your own sturdier ones (I used toggle lock anchors) as I wasn't confident with what came with the package. This whiteboard IS magnetic, which was a happy bonus, but because the metal backing is very thin, you may not be able to use regular magnets. (I've attached a picture to show what the back looks like.) The board comes with two rare earth magnets that seem to hold to the board pretty well. It also comes with one marker which was already dry and pretty unusable. The board doesn't lie flush to the wall, but rather protrudes about a 1/2 inches out, so when you are writing in the middle the board you can see it flex a bit, but so far it's holding up ok and I think it's normal. Overall while the board does have its faults (mounting hardware especially), it's the best alternative to the standard whiteboard I've come across. Once installed, it looks great and is worth the hassles.
