Aesthetically pleasing and functional
on November 29, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very excited to try this desktop style “whiteboard”. I work from home and placed it on my desk. It came with a glass dry erase marker and a small eraser. I liked its sleek design and convenient storage for dry erase markers stickies pens etc. It felt strong and sturdy. The lid has rubber corner stoppers adhered to the inside so it can’t slam shut and the bottom so it will not slide around your desk. I liked the idea of using this type of whiteboard versus a traditional wall one. It definitely helped with the clutter on the desk and gave me an additional place to leave myself notes sticky notes or just doodle when I felt the need. I did find it to be a bit large it’s almost like having a second keyboard on your desk. If your desk has the space it’s not a big deal and probably preferred. It was perfect for those “I’ll get back to that later” moments. I tried using other dry erase markers and the color was not as dark. The only thing that needs attention is that when you erase the dry erase crumbs get stuck in the grove and you will have to clean it periodically. Overall it has a pleasing aesthetic and makes your work space feel a bit more grown up.

Nothing to like about this

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was super excited to try out this white dry erase board. I want to stay more organized and thought that this would be a great way to stay on task. Unfortunately this was not the case and I ended up not liking this product at all. Out of the box it looks great. It's sleek and very well made and at first I thought it looked great on my desk. However that's where all the positivity ends when it comes to this board. First off it's way too small. It doesn't take up that much space on my desk so that's a plus but it's also so tiny that I find myself writing stuff down on my notebook or a sheet of paper instead of utilizing this dry erase board. It was also annoying to write something down and then have to erase it to write down something else. I tried to use it during a meeting and it was a mess because I couldn't fit everything onto the board and so I ended up just rewriting the notes in my notebook instead. Currently the board is boxed up ready to be donated because at this point I just don't see myself ever using it at the office or at home.

Great for Homeschool work

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My family has really enjoyed using the Glass Top Dry Erase board for our daily homeschool schedule and assignments. It sits easily on the table while my 4 kids have all of their books out and is easily moved so each kid can see it. It wipes clean each night and helps us save on using paper for my youngest’s work. It is slim and a doesn’t add clutter to our work space.

Great Addition to Homework Space
on November 23, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This glass desktop dry erase board is a game-changer for our homeschool setup! My kiddo loves it and so do I. The glass surface is what won me over. It is super smooth making it easy to write on and clean off without leaving any color stains. It has a non-slip bottom rubber inside corners (so it doesn't slam shut) and a bonus hidden storage spot where my son can stash his calculator markers ruler and pencils. I did notice if the marker sits for a while it takes a bit more effort to erase but it's not a big deal. The small eraser is cute although sometimes little felt bits come off but it is manageable. The compact lightweight design is perfect for saving space which is always appreciated in our house. The quality of this glass desktop dry erase board met my expectations and I definitely recommend this product for parents who want to cut down on paper waste and keep their kids' study area a little more organized. It's not just for the office - it's awesome for homework spaces too!

Nice Desk Addition

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was something I didn’t know I wanted or needed to help me keep my daily work and personal life tasks right in front of me. I like to keep my desk uncluttered as much as possible and even though this has a bit of a footprint I like that the design is quite minimal and clean. I like that the pen and eraser can be stored inside. The board is big enough to make a list for the week but not so big that it’s visually overwhelming. Love using this everyday!

Great compact board

from Brea
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love the look of this dry erase board and the fact that it’s compact which is perfect for my work space! With that being said I don’t love the slanted design. I understand the intent behind it but personally I would have preferred a flat board that I could then tilt up against a wall to save even more space. The quality of the board is great and I really like the feel of the board but I’m not a fan of the eraser that comes with it. You have to put a lot of pressure on it to erase some of the letters. Nonetheless it’s great how the board came with an eraser and a marker! I also love the storage underneath and overall am really happy with this board. I mostly use it in my office but my kids like stealing it to draw on so my whole family likes this board!

Sleek and functional

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had never seen a dry-erase board like this before so I was excited to try it out. What I did not expect was how much my kids would love it! It’s a great size for a desktop or table top workspace. I was planning to use this dry-erase board at my workspace at home for my part time job but my kids immediately started to use it for homeschool lessons. They love that you can lift the top to store the eraser that came with it and the extra markers we already had. I love the versatility of the dry-erase board since it can easily be moved from one location to another (whether that be my workspace or the kids’ school space). I also love that storage is included. It’s functional sturdy and it also has a sleek look. It erases easily and so far it has not developed that residue left behind on many white dry-erase boards. I’m hopeful it won’t since it is a glass material rather than the material I’ve usually seen on dry-erase boards. I would definitely recommend this type of dry-erase board!
