I had never seen this style of magnetic board before, I actually came on to Amazon looking for a steel board like we had in our last house but when I saw these and read the other reviews about how good they were I thought I would take a punt.I am so glad I did. The board is top quality and looks really classy, we have it in our utility room and it fits in perfectly.The glass is of a milky colour which hides the sheet of steel behind which in turn gives it it's magnetic properties.The supplied chalk pen works brilliantly, once you realise you need to shake it quite a bit and pump the nip to get the ink out and the supplied magnets are strong enough to hold smaller items. We did purchase some rare earth barrel magnets to go with it and these provide a much stronger hold if you have larger items to stick.The board is also very easy to clean, a piece of dry kitchen roll was enough to remove ink from the supplied pen, I did not have any other pens handy to try but I would imagine I will just replace this pen with one of the same or a multi pack of coloured ones in the future when it runs out.Delivery from the supplier was also very fast, if you have Prime it turns up next day as expected, although the cardboard box it came in would have been good enough it was surrounded by an even bigger cardboard box as Amazon sometimes like to do but this would not go against the product itself.All in all very highly recommended and I am considering getting another one for my office.The board comes with a template to install which is awesome, I usually really don't like this metal cross shaped fittings as they are so easy to install badly but with the template and the supplied screws and rawl plugs I had the board hung in just a couple of minutes.==================================================================I like to try and review all of the products I buy on Amazon in order to help other people out.If you found my review helpful please vote yes below or if not please comment and let me know why so I can see what was not helpful and use the feedback to improve future reviews.Many thanks for your time.

great glass board- beware- only designed to be hung by top corners
Great looking board, magnetic aspect is fabulous. Just be aware that hanging design is slightly flawed. It is designed to be hung by top two corners, landscape or portrait. This means the bottom two corners are not adhered to the wall. Remember it is a magnetic board, so when you remove the magnets to ate 'pinning' papers up with, the board rocks away from the wall. This is a large sheet of glass! It's dangerous! It seems to be the way of these boards, whatever the make. So it loses a star here. A way around this is to us some 3m Velcro type picture hanging stuff so you can still remove the board to redecorate with minimal damage to your wall. Due to this board being rectangular, it has a screw hole in each corner, so if you have a 'man who can' you can safely get it hung by each corner, making it safe. I'm not sure why the hanging style is to be unseen from the front. It would be safer to be hung by all four corners & still stylish if stylish hole covers were designed in to the overall board.

Could be better
This should have been a five-star but it arrived with only 4 very small magnets, which let it down.It did include a useful drilling guide for marking out the screw positions.

Delivery service was excellent and arrived in damaged
Delivery service was excellent and arrived in damaged. The board is the perfect size that we need and it was easy to fit on the walk. The only thing that let it down very slightly was the glass is quite thick so you need strong magnets or they just drop off.

Looks good
Looks good, though the magnetism isn't very strong, so can't hold any thing heavy

Quality a little below par
Nice board but there were some small black bits at the side where the paint had chipped or not filled. The template is off level which really annoyed me! Otherwise nice board.

Looks good
Looks great, magnets stick and easily wipeable. The magnetic pen holder is quite weak and fall off (hence the 4 stars)

Good quality but most magnets didnt stick.
Wanted to put fridge magnets on this but sadly only the very strongest ones stuck. Had to return. But overall quality seemed good
