Customer Reviews for TRU RED - TRU RED Magnetic Steel Dry Erase Board, 8' x 4' (TR61178) - Satin Frame

It's very difficult to erase what you've written on this whiteboard. I used the standard dry erase marker that was included in the package. Typically it should be very easy to erase something you've just written on the board only seconds before. Not so with this board. I had to use isopropyl alcohol to clean off the marker and even then it left a residual mark. It was such a hassle to assemble and mount that I doubt I will have the energy to return it. A word to the wise: invest in a better quality whiteboard. It's worth it.

This is a white board; do not let it fool you into thinking it is something else. It is only a white board and nothing more than a white board. You can write on it with white board markers and erase it. If you leave the writing on it too long a shadow stays on the board. If you leave the writing on longer than that you have to scrub it off. Just like with all white boards. The instructions were a bit wonky and I had to do some research first. If you drill holes in the bottom of the board to fully insert the screws provided you WILL crack the whiteboard so be careful and slow during your installation and I recommend not screwing in those last 2 screws completely or you've got a great chance at cracking your whiteboard.

Our kids are remote learning (as are most) and this has proven very helpful for serving as an area to practice problems and jot down notes without tearing through endless reams of paper. Not too difficult to put up but took some time for us.

Arrived within two days. No damage at all. A bit tricky to mount but a one man job. The marker included is too thick for my liking. The board surface is a bit scratchy but very good for the price. Overall really happy with the purchase. Would highly recommend it for a casual user.

I've been searching for a decently-priced large white board for some time and didn't have any luck until I landed on this board. The value for price can't be beat.
