something different
Liked the different look from a regular white board. Had to return it twice because it was warped, but was taken care of by customer service. No problems erasing it but wished it was magnetic.

Boyfriend Loves This!
I bought this bamboo board for my boyfriend for his birthday since he seems to have an obsession with bamboo products and he loves it! He uses it to work out math problems and says that it is the perfect size. He has received a lot of compliments for it from his friends. It's unique and looks great on the wall! Perhaps I should buy one for myself... :)
I do wish that it was magnetic though.

Looks great BUT...
This is the worst whiteboard ever. Not sure if it's the pen or the finish on the board, but it just won't erase properly! Lots of rubbing and scrubbing needed to get the marks off...

bamboo dry erase
Great look. Arrived well packed, but was bowed. A few overnights with heavy bits on each end seemed easier than a return and worked just fine. It has gotten nothing but great comments from folks who can't believe it is a dry erase board! I can see why other reviews mention hard to clean (groves in surface), but comes with instructions on cleaning and so far not been a problem! Overall, very happy with this purchase.

Be Warned!
We bought this for our home office. It looked cool and we wrote some notes. We didn't go to erase those notes until a few weeks later and to our surprise they won't come off! We used the marker that was provided. I'm very disappointed, we are now stuck with old notes that won't come off. Maybe it works if you are removing notes a day later, but it does not work if you wait. Even scrapping with our nails the marker won't come off. Not worth it, should have bought a standard dry erase board.

Unique find
I like the way it looks on my wall, kind of like a piece of art. ... I thought the measurements online were a lot larger, but could have been my mistake . But anyhow it still looks nice, and better than the usual plain white dry erase board I had up before. I don't think the price was very fair for what you get. I would have felt better if I had paid 40 instead of 60 dollars. But it is unique and I haven't really seen one like it anywhere else. Also, it would be nice if had some kind of attachment for the dry erase marker....But I'm happy with it and it functions just the way I expected

definitely worth it!
We purchased the bamboo dry erase board as a way to keep our busy family organized week by week. It's a great addition to our decor and functional!

Not Your Everyday Ho Hum Dry Erase Board
I bough this for my daughter's first apartment.
She says her and her roomate just love it and it looks great. The 4 stars is mainly for the price and the fact that the marker doesn't attach to the board. This is a very unique looking board that serves it's purpose well. Finally a dry erase board that is not an eyesore!!

Classy, and You Can Write On It
If you think this is pricey for a dry erase board then you are correct, but you have also missed the point.
.
This is the only classy, not-dorm-room styled dry erase board I have ever seen. It even looks stylish on the wall with nothing written on it.
.
I don't even use it for phone numbers and shopping lists. I just draw (or encourage visitors to draw) on it, so it's essentially a non-permanent piece of artwork in my apartment.

best purchase ever
Superb. Simply superb. Though the marker that was sent along with the board was dry. Love love love.

chic and useful
I bought this for my husband and I for our kitchen. Love it! It is different than the norm, but also not so out there. It really works with the space, and it is easy to write on and it wipes off cleanly. My only wish is that the marker that comes with could attach to it.

Not worth it
Make sure you look at the dimensions before purchasing online. This was bigger than I expected and I was kind of overwhelmed by the size.
It comes with one dry erase marker. A small eraser is attached to the end of the marker. This marker and eraser set work fine together, but don't try to use dry erase markers purchased elsewhere with this board. I found it very difficult to clean when using other dry erase markers.
There is also nothing included to attach the marker to board, so it will be easy to lose. I am worried that I might lose the marker/eraser (or it could dry out) quickly. Then I won't be able to use dry erase board at all since I can't clean off other dry erase markers.
This was a disappointment, so I am returning it.

Don't purchase
It looks like a rough piece of board from the lumber yard.

Love this
I love the way the bamboo 'white' board looks! It's a really nice addition to our dining room, where we can put the menu, drink options and messages to our guests. We get a lot of compliments on it as well. It's a little smaller than I had envisioned from the pictures, and a tad overpriced, but overall I'm pleased.

Love it!
I love my new bamboo dry erase board....I was so excited when I got it, but the box says comes with hardware (which I assume is what is already attached to it) and comes with a marker - but there wasn't a marker in the box....small complaint - no biggie. But it might have been for someone that didn't want to go out and buy one...
But I love CB2.....

AWESOME!
Love this dry eraser board. Wipes easy and clean - great size. Like hanging a piece of art. Had an ordinary small white dry eraser board in my kitchen - a real eye sore and didn't erase very well. Thru that board right in the garbage. I will never buy or own anoter white dry eraser board after this. Love Love Love it!!!!!!!!

I love this
I wanted a dry erase board for my front room but didn't want that dorm room feel. I about died when I saw this because it was exactly what I was looking for, a dry erase board with a cool grown up feel. Someone actually got it for me as a birthday gift and I love it. It's very large and is literally bamboo wood that has been treated so that you can write on it with dry erase markers - so it doesn't even look like a dry erase board. It is hefty also, it's not flimsy at all.
As I read in a prior review, it does come with a marker that has a magnet but this board is not magnetic. I immediately lost it. I just bought a set of expo dry erase markers that came with an eraser and they work perfectly fine.
I absolutely love this and would recommend it anyone. It looks cool and is extremely functional. It's awesome! I felt crazy wanting a $60 dry erase board but it was worth it.

love it!
I was so excited when this finally arrived! Looks great in our kitchen, and suits us much better than an old school white dry erase board would. Erases beautifully, and it's a decent size. The only downside - the board is a shade or two darker than I was expecting. And the marker that came with had a magnetic attachment (though the board is not magnetic). But, who cares! Love it overall.

GREAT IDEA
This is wonderful! What a great idea. I hate boring normal white boards and I really like that this is on eco-friendly bamboo.
