Wall26 Wall Chalkboard Removable Dry Erase Blank Message Board Peel and Stick Decal Sheet (Marker Included) - 36"x48"

I bought two of these about 6 months ago.Pros:====- I do a lot of my home work on these. There spacious and clean easily.- Boards this big usually cost you ~$100Cons:====- Installation is horrible. Get an extra pair of hands when you install and make sure the wall is CLEAN (I thought I cleaned it enough, but I guess not). Otherwise, even minor bumps and bits of dust will wrinkle the dry erase and cause bumps.- The dry erase comes in a tube (understandable) and the instructions recommend laying it flat for a couple of days. It's been 6 months and the dry erase still "remembers" the tube shape it was shipped in and regularly peels its corners off. It sometimes completely falls off the wall at night. I've resorted to tape and thumb tacks to keep it on the wall.- You know how when you have a roll of tape and it folds over on itself, ruining your piece of tape? This behaves the same way. If you're not careful, you'll get permanent wrinkles and tears. This happened a few times when it fell off the wall at night onto the floor, picking up all manner of dirt (causing more wrinkles)Conclusion:=======I wonder if it would have been helpful to mount this on some other substrate, and then hang it. Or, perhaps some roll on adhesive on the wall before mounting to avoid the peeling.There are some hassles, but I'm not willing to spend the coin on a big professional marker board. With some TLC, these do the job. If you've read this review, perhaps you can start off on a better foot with them and they might require less work to maintain.

If this dry erase board were as capable of sticking to a wall as it were capable of falling off said wall, folding over onto itself, sticking itself together and ruining said product, it would be a home run. Put two of these on two walls. The same night, after leaving the office, they fell off the walls, stuck to themselves and as a product of pulling it apart, ruined itself. Very very very unsatisfied. Now I have a tacky, duct taped, wrinkled and stress marked 25 dollar piece of junk (x2) on my office walls. Sadly, I purchased four of them expecting them to be a higher quality. Not impressed, not amused, not happy. On a more upbeat note, as a dry erase, it does perform adequately! I can write on it, and if I so choose, I can also erase what I had previously written EXCEPTIONALLY well! :)

Yeah, so this is basically just contact paper with bad adhesive. If you've ever worked with contact paper you know it can be squirly. Now imagine trying to neatly apply a giant piece of contact paper on your wall. The entire back of this thing is sticky and it's paper thin and it's all curled up like a fresh poster that doesn't want to be flattened. It's like nailing jello to a tree.So now I'm thinking, ok, no big deal. I must have misunderstood the description. This might not be ideal but I'm handy with stuff, I got this. I manage to get the paper backing off to reveal the sticky side and even (to some degree) have it look straight and kind of where I wanted it on my wall. As I was struggling to get to this point (and it was a struggle, this stuff is not easy to work with) I noticed that the adhesive didn't seem all that fantastic. At first I saw this as a plus because it allowed me to (mostly) smooth out the "bubbles" I had created when I applied it to the wall. For those of you who've worked with contact paper, you know what I mean.In the end it looked pretty shabby because the material is so thin that the bumps of the wall show through easily. Even then I was ok with this. What I wasn't ok with was how it fell from the wall and stuck to my cat a couple hours later. Yes, the adhesive didn't hold the contact paper to the wall. The wall was clean, probably less textured than most walls and painted with latex paint that should have been easy to stick to. It was room temperature and in the desert with low humidity. Close to the ideal surface for this product, it's just bad adhesive.If this contact paper had stuck to the wall as well as it did to my cat I would give it 3-4 stars. Hard to work with and barely lasted a couple hours. It might be good if you want to be able to write with dry erase pens on your cabinet shelves or the bottoms of your drawers. Or if you want a giant piece of something sticky that constantly wants to roll up on itself and on cats.

I really WANTED this to work! We bought the big size, but it would not uncurl and stick to the wall. It came in a tube and had a strong curl to it. I used painters tape around the edges hoping that after a few days it might hold but that did not work - it actually started to pull the painters tape as it curled under. Smaller sizes might be just fine, but I would not recommend this size.Also - my son had a blue dry erase marker that we could not erase. I've used it on other white boards with no problem, but on this one ti would NOT come off all the way even after using dry erase cleaner. So I"m not sure what the deal was with that. All his other markers seemed to come off OK.I would have returned it, but I waited way too long and it was a mess when it came off the wall so I just threw it away.

I dont see how this product had so many positive reviews. Mine came wrinkled and when I tried to put it on my flat wall it wouldn't stick for more than 5 minutes. Such a waste of my money. After an hour of trying I gave up and threw it in the trash. Oh well.I thought it would have been something sleek and modern to fit my office.

Installed on a Monday night in my office. By the following Wednesday, it had peeled itself off the wall, & got tangled up in itself as well as other papers it fell on in my office. I now can not get it unstuck from itself. Even if I could it is so wrinkled now it would look horrible hung up again. So if you're going to buy it, be prepared to trim out the perimeter to keep it from peeling back off. But then again, once you do that you're putting more time & money into it so you might be better off buying the pre framed ones.
