Bought this for my teen sons room in effort to keep him from putting thumb tacks all over his walls. Traditional cork boards I found in the store were not nearly big enough. I bought the largest size option (huge!) and it looks great and has kept most of his things displayed without extra wall damage. The burlap was a bit creased across one corner created a line. I decided the abnormality was no big deal but I might have exchanged it had it not been destined for my boys room. Very happy with the product and price.
