This is a good concept, and is good quality and came with plenty of accessories (a large eraser, 3 different color dry-erase markers with attached mini-erasers, 3 magnets, several push pins for the cork board side, and wall mounting hardware). However, the calendar squares just aren't really large enough to be useful for a family. If it's just for you, it might be ok, but for my family of 5 that do alllllll the sports and activities, I just can't fit everything in those small squares. Would love something larger!I have been looking for a half whiteboard/half cork board for a while and this double sided option seemed like a good idea for multi-use. This item is great, came as described, no surprises. Good quality. Good value for the money. It came well packed. There are instructions for hanging and general recommendations. They do recommend hanging with a screw. But I chose to use hanging strips at my own risk. I would just follow the manufacturer of the strip recommendations for weight and you are ok. This boards weights about 5lbs. Been using for a few days, it was just like what I wanted! All the accessories are also good quality and everything is working as it should. They do say the remove a plastic film from the white board, which mine didn’t have. So just be careful not to ruim yours in case it doesn’t have the film either! Great product!I like the whiteboard. It is light weight and can be placed anywhere. It’s not getting on the way and it’s not looking to busy. It’s just a little bit small for office but would fit a dorm perfectly. I would recommend to students mostly
