Audio-Visual Direct Magnetic White Glass Dry-Erase Board Set - 4' x 3' - Includes Magnets, Hardware & Marker Tray

In searching for a whiteboard to help drag myself through nursing school, I ran across Audio Visual Direct's product. I purchased the largest (8'x4') size and as everyone else has mentioned, it was very easy to install. I will comment that the template sheet was slightly misshapen so make note of which sides are 'true' when marking the holes. Additionally, I didn't trust the screws and drywall anchors to hold the weight of the board, so I broke out the stud finder and swapped some 3 inch T25 construction screws. (The only reason for the 4/5 star rating for adhesion is my internal fear of a 8'x4' sheet of glass/metal being held by 6 drywall anchors; find the studs and sleep at night.)The board is nicer than I imagined and I would say higher quality than the Quartet ones I've seen (and without the cheesy brand name slapped on it for marketing). Worth the premium price in my opinion. A 'you get what you pay for' scenario. As mentioned in the description, only the strong neodymium magnets will work since the glass is thick. I have some markers with magnets on them that will not stick to the board. Not an issue really, but just keep this in mind before you buy the 25 pack of amazon basic magnets with high hopes of using them in conjunction with the AVD board. Board looks very sophisticated and is easy to clean. No unsightly marker smudges.The only issue I had with the whiteboard was due to shipping and seemingly an issue regarding my address being in a rural setting (Wyoming), Amazon's choice of package handlers, and the short staffing of the shipping industry. The "buy in the next 2 hours and get it by ......" promises on Amazon serve as clickbait. At the time it said something like "it'll arrive in 4 days." This turned into 2 weeks while the order was fulfilled. Then the delivery company seemingly misplaced the package, and after numerous calls to CEVA and Amazon, it came 3 weeks after the expected 2 week delivery date. While I don't regret purchasing the board, I will buy directly from Audio Visual Direct in the future. (I think the $5 lower price on Amazon suckered me in.) When I called the company directly regarding the issue they were very accommodating and even offered to refund the purchase and ship a new board using their preferred FedEx route. Great product from a great company! Would buy again, but I'm out of wall space :)

So after reading almost every review, I decided to buy this board. I opted for the standard one since my office walls are painted light blue so the green tint mentioned won't phase me.1st board came and was completely shattered. It was so bad that the delivery driver got off the truck and told me "I don't think you should accept this delivery", the box could literally bend in half. I refused delivery and got a refund... I was quite disappointed.After getting my office together, it still didn't feel complete so I went out on a limb and purchased this board a second time. To tell you I was a nervous wreck about the shipping would be an understatement. I just knew it would be broken again. I got it yesterday (a day early) and I met the delivery person outside when he was unloading it, to ensure I checked the package.Happy to report, my board was not broken, and it is beautiful! My teenage daughters and I mounted it on the wall yesterday. I am so happy with the results! My board is 4x3, it weighs about 35lbs, it is definitely a 2 man lift. The green tint looks cool against my blue walls, it looks like the wall color is faintly coming through the glass. The quality is impeccable although I see a bit of shadowing from the dry erase markers (I use EXPO brand). The magnets are super strong and holds well on the glass. I got 5 magnets in the box.Mounting:After reading all the reviews and Q&A I was a nervous wreck mounting this.We chose not to trace the holes on the cardboard before mounting. Instead, my daughter and I held the board to the wall, my youngest daughter ensured it was level and used a sharpie to place dots on the wall where we needed to drill. This worked out well for us.I literally only hit 1 stud in 1 corner, the rest of the board is mounted to drywall. I was hesitant about using the hardware in the package, but opted to try it and I am very happy I did. The hardware received with the board worked really well and the board is very secure to the wall. I used a small drill bit to create a starter hole, and tapped the plastic drywall hangars into the holes before attaching the metal cylindrical part.Once the basic hardware is up ...ensure one plastic washer is on the back part of the mounting hardware and save the other plastic washer for the front. The plastic washer is the additional depth needed to ensure that the board doesn't bow out when the board is mounted. Place the foam strips at the back of the board and mount it. The silver cylinder and 1 washer combined is the EXACT width of the foam strips so if your board bows out, it could be due to the washer placement.It took us 30 minuted start to finish to get this up. My board sit's flat, the foam strips are flush against the wall, the board is secure and sturdy. I will definitely order this board again and HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT!!!!!!!!!!!Suggestion for manufacturer: It would be nice to get an eraser with the board so we don't have to buy one separately.

This is for Ultra White Magnetic Glass 35 1/2 x 47 1/4. $180Pro.1. Beautiful. It's not fare comparing to my old whiteboard:-). I use this in my home to teach my daughter math :-)2. Easy to install with the template.3. Very stable, did alot of research and was worry about the glass flexing. The Magnetic one come with 3 stripe of stick on backing support that prevent any flexing ( forgot the stripe support on initial installation, and it does flex without it, specially when erasing. Remove it and put the support on).4. Magnet. Seriously, after reading so many bad reviews about magnet not sticking. Just think for a moment, all Glass Whiteboard are mostly 4mm thick, including other brand. A refrigerator magnet contact with the refrigerator metal directly. While Glassboard is 4mm thick and the metal sheet is on the back. Obviously you need a strong magnet, well duh.5. Work pretty well with most of my Expo Dry erase market. Some lighter color, doesn't come out as good as on a non-glass whiteboard. I order Quartet Glass Dry marker and the color does seem to come thru better. Having say that, most of my Expo darker color work fine.6. Did I mention it's beautiful ?? yea, it's beautiful to stare at. :-)Con.Price. I don't own other Glass Whiteboard to compare to, as I mention earlier it's not even fare to compare this to my older whiteboard. :-) Regular whiteboard cost approximate $60 for this size, I pay $180 for this Glass Whiteboard. It's expensive.After mounting on the wall and consider the pricing, if I have to make the decision again, no doubt will buy again.If you're in the market for a whiteboard, definitely consider Glass Whiteboard as an option. Did I mention it's beautiful ?
