There is more to choosing the right whiteboard than you might first imagine. With different surfaces, sizes and frames to choose from, which is the whiteboard for you?
Whether you are buying a whiteboard for your home, classroom or business, here are the main points you should consider.
- Is the whiteboard easy to erase?
- How frequently will it be used, every day, a few times a week, a few times a month?
- Is it magnetic?
- Does it leave ghosting marks?
- Is it scratch or dent resistant?
- How long is it guaranteed?
- How stylish is it?
