Review on Organize Your Ideas Effortlessly With XBoard Magnetic Chalkboard Blackboard 36 X 24 by Peter Boisvert

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Looks nice but a major pain to hang on the wall

The board looks nice on the wall, but it was a PITA to put it together and get it on the wall. After drilling holes in the wall for the wall anchors only two of them would fit in the holes, thus we kept making the holes bigger and bigger to try to get them to fit in. We ended up taking a big chunk of drywall off the wall trying to get the darn wall anchors in. Finally we gave up and bought some decent wall anchors from the hardware store. Those slipped right in with no problem. I just wish we had thought of that before gouging a huge hole in our wall. The little plastic pieces that snap on the corners are also a pain to attach and don't really snap on very well or completely even after trying to hammer them in. The directions are terrible and no doubt were written in China since one of the instructions was to "spirit level."
