MasterVision Planning Board Magnetic Dry Erase, 1" x 2" Grid Planner with Aluminum Frame, 48" x 72", Gold

We are using this white board to assist with a window replacement project in our high-rise condo building. It is great to keep track of which units are "under prep", "installation day", and "punchlist day". It is a great "AT-A-GLANCE" tool for our maintenance and the installation team!

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.

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.

Cheaply made, you have to be careful it doesnt come apart as you hang it. Dented in 2 different places when delivered, although the packaging was very good. I would pay more for better.

Great board except it areivw damaged. It was packaged in a thinner box with a thin layer of cushion which didn’t protect pur board enough. There is a large eyesore dent on the bottom left which probably makes that block unusable with some of the magnetic tools I purchased to go with this board to track construction progress. The box was not damaged on delivery at all. I now cannot return the board because I have a new hire starting Monday morning 5/21 who will need it immediately. So I’m stuck with a damaged product. Good board but please rethink your packaging for this item. Thicker styrofoam surrounding it is necessary.

We use this at our business for keeping lists of to dos at our desk. Magnet feature is nice as it allows you to put a note or other item related to lis5 on the board.

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 use the whiteboard in my dog boarding kennel to schedule walk and playtimes. I use whiteboard tape to make my vertical lines. Nice quality board.

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