Sturdy with awesome accessories that stay put
on April 29, 2025
Posted by: T.C.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We’re always looking for better tools for our interactive medical meetings and this one is our favorite!! It is well-built and nimble and has been a part of every meeting since its arrival. When the whiteboard box arrived at our office I was awed by its size but super-impressed with the careful packaging. Assembly took about a half hour for one person with an additional person needed to slide the board into the pivots. Once assembled the whiteboard is sturdy and versatile blending seamlessly into our conference room decor. We love that both sides can be used and it takes only a moment to flip the board 180 degrees to the other side. We can fill one side with prepared notes for our meetings while leaving the other side open for brainstorming. We love the magnetic surface with square markers that don’t roll away but wish there were more colors and thicker markers. The magnetic eraser works so cleanly and stays put. The magnets hold additional meeting materials that can be printed in advance and the tray holds all the accessories perfectly. I love that the board can be easily moved with sturdy casters. This whiteboard is perfect for our collaborative meetings and as a large creative surface for budding artists and school children. Now that we have this awesome whiteboard for our office I am tempted to get one for our family meetings at home too!

Pure awesomeness fun and educational

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am thrilled with the TRU RED Mobile Whiteboard. First of all it was very easy to put together. It took me about 20 minutes and did not require any additional tools other than what was provided. The size is great at 72" x 40". The markers and eraser that were included go on easy and come off without any trace with relative ease. I really like the magnet on the eraser that allows us to leave it right on the white board for easy storage. Another cool feature is the ability to flip the giant board around 180 degrees. My kids absolutely love this board. It has been the biggest hit of the year as a toy where we play Hangman school and other drawing games. The quality appears top notch across the white board frame markers magnets and eraser. This is an item that I am so happy I have and never realized how much I was missing it until I received it.

Nice Whiteboard

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Despite the outermost packaging having some damage from shipping the whiteboard was enclosed in suitable cardboard packaging and has no damage upon opening. Comes complete with mounting instructions as well as markers and eraser to get started. The construction and design are top-notch. The instructions are easy to follow and assembly is straightforward. It may be advantageous to have a second person help hold the upper rail during assembly. Interestingly enough the instructions suggest two people lift the whiteboard onto the frame but that was easy to do with one person. Construction seems solid and I like how there are spring-loaded catches on the upper rail to keep the whiteboard from spinning around on its own. The markers that were supplied write nicely and the eraser removes the marker without leaving residue behind. It’s been a week and a half since assembly and the function remains superb. Markers write nicely still and the eraser erases well without leaving a marker stain behind.

Love it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This white board is amazing! I love the size. It lets you write and erase with ease. I really like that it flips over too. Especially when you're not ready to erase your work yet. It's really nice to have that extra side. There is a great locking feature too to hold the board in place. There is even a tray to hold your markers and eraser. The board is also magnetic so you can hold papers or other magnetic objects.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are super impressed with this white board! I love the flip feature to easily access both sides. It’s BIG make sure to measure your space. We’re using it in our homeschool garage setup but it’d be huge in my house! My husband said the instructions were great for putting it together. Our only complaint is that the packaging was a bit skimpy the board didn’t seem well protected for transport. I still highly recommend!

Quick and Easy Flipping White Board
on March 20, 2025
Posted by: L.Z.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Versatile. Super quick set up. Easy to Move. Flip for double the usable space. Magnetic. The white board went from home office to game room to kids room so easily. After just a 35 minute set up (all parts were included for set up) I had the white board set up. It came with a really nice magnetic eraser that actually erased the included markers the first try. I easily flipped the white board to use the other side and the magnetic eraser and included magnets stayed right on! After hours we rolled the white board into our game room with ease and used it for some fun. My daughter and I carried the whiteboard upstairs into our kids room for the kids to try it out. They had fun messaging each other and drawing on it. We needed it again for the office so back downstairs it came. I really appreciate how much usable space there is and how easily it can be moved. The magnetic ability is a bonus.

Good Whiteboard

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This whiteboard is great but not perfect. I love the two sided board with easy flipping capability. It has nice latch that holds it in place when not being flipped. The magnetic characteristic is also really nice and works well. I did not have any issues cleaning the board either. The instructions could have been a little bigger and clearer but the were not bad. I also felt that the base while well designed didn’t work well in my home office it was too big. A wall mount would work better for my home office. I ended up moving it to the flex room/gym in my home where I use more. Overall I’m very happy with it the quality seems great and it is much lighter than expected. I moved it easily down a flight of stairs after it was assembled.

Almost perfect product
on March 20, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use The True Red Whiteboard in my home office primarily for brainstorming ideas. It came packaged securely and was fairly easy to assemble though may require an extra set of hands for smaller individuals. The included magnets dry erase markers and eraser helped me get going quickly without having to purchase additional supplies. The locking wheels make it easy to move around on hard floors but may not work well on carpet. The best part was the ability to flip it over to the other side! This allowed me to keep ideas on one side while swapping to a clean workspace as needed.
