Great Value for sleek and modern whiteboard
What's in the box? A well protected sheet of black glass, small box with parts and the aluminum tray (which holds markers) and a single sheet with install instructions.If you are a noob on assembly for products, you may find it challenging to figure out the basic instructions, but I imagine 90% of you that have built a few things can figure it out. For example, they show a simple picture of drilling a hole, but they don't tell you to use a 1/4 " drill bit. I had to figure it out.Assembly is very simple. Take the glass out of the box, hold it onto the wall where you want it (balance a ;eve; on the top to be sure it is straight... and ANOTHER PERSON should draw marks on the wall through the circles in the glass while person #1 holds the glass from moving. This would be tough to do with 1. I imagine you could balance the glass on a night stand carefully ot some other structure that is stable that can go up against the wall.Once your marks are on the wall, the rest goes pretty smoothly. Drill your 1/4" holes, hammer in the molly brackets, screw in the screws (through the metal 'pipes'), place the glass in place where you want it and screw in the end caps. Lastly two small pieces of rubber tape grip the glass at the bottom and you slide on the marker tray to a perfect snug fit. Total install took about 15 minutes.It looks great! Sleek sheet of black glass with 4 metal caps in the corners. It goes with my high-tech theme in my office and I've placed it within reach of my arms while seated in a chair. Easy to scribe notes and to-do's with colored markers (meant for glass).Worth the $43 by a long shot! As long as you are accurate with your marks when holding up the glass (as a template) and drill accurately, it's a perfect fit most anyone can do.

Board comes with bonus content
5 stars for how nice this looks on the wall.3 stars for installation - I tried to create my own template but if your drill hole is a millimeter off you’ve ruined the install (and your wall). A simple printed to scale template included with packing materials would cost a penny and would make the install much easier and save time.5 stars for durability. I was concerned about mounting glass to the wall but the materials included seem sufficient for safety. If anyone is wondering if you can use mounting tape - don’t. You really need to use the wall anchors even if the glass isn’t heavy (I got the small one).This would leave my review at 4 stars average but this bad boy is getting a bonus star. Why? Because I did not realize when purchasing it that it is super reflective. I know, it’s black glass and that should be common sense. However, in the hour long swearing and anger tirade I noticed the mirror started humming a bit. As I was hanging it with little assistance from my 11 year old, this beautiful man creature stepped through the glass and offered to assist me. With his guidance we got it securely fastened to the wall. He then offered me a cold beverage and light snack which I accepted. Apparently that means we are now engaged in the Fae realm but life’s been a bit lonely in quarantine and I’m okay with our arrangement. I installed this for my child to use to do his math work and he is now telling me these little creatures on the other side are helping him figure out long division. He also speaks Latin fluently all of a sudden. I’m tossing an extra star on this review due to bonus content the manufacturer did not disclose.

Sharp looking. Hanging was fine, but could/should be easier.
I've got this hanging in my home office. Arrived in perfect condition. Box says 2-person carry required, so of course, one person walked it into the house. I read the reviews before buying this, and I broadly agree with the observations that others have made:1) It looks great. The gloss black finish is sharp looking, classy, and understated.2) Bigger is better. I got the 70x35 size, and it fits great on a 75" wall.3) It could really use a template to help with hanging. I'll expand on this point more.... I've hung lots of things, and that's some of the easiest handiwork I've done. I'm truly no stranger to building things, including framing, finishing, and so on. So, this wasn't all that tough, but it would have been easier with a little documentation help that included a paper template that I could tape to the wall. As it was, I spent 30 minutes measuring everything and remeasuring everything prior to mounting. The directions suggest that you use the board itself as a template, but I disagree with that approach because the board is glass, fairly thin, and it would take 3 people to safely do that. I recalled another user's post in which the glass broke, so I handled it as little as possible.But anyway, it's up, and it looks nice. Bought the neon markers for it. Might come back and post a picture.

Prep is everything
I am so glad I read the many reviews warning about the installation process!To make up for the lack of a template I used one of the two foam sheets that came with the packaging. With the board on top of the foam sheet I marked the center of the holes on the foam. Critical to be accurate here as there is1/8 inch tolerance. I then hung the foam sheet on the wall with two pieces of painters tape and having levelled it, drilled the holes.I hung the board on my own (Saturday in the office :-). Can be done with a chair to rest the board on and accurately placed hardware. But easier to lift into place with two people.The board looks great! Far more modern than whiteboards. I use liquid chalk pens in nice bright colors. Board wipes perfectly clean - no ghosting.I give it five stars because I'm so happy with the result and avoided the pitfalls of installation thanks to the other reviewers.
