This is a fantastic idea! The surface is actually thicker than I thought it would be and it is super easy to install. It seems to be made with quality and functionality in mind. Dry erase boards can be very expensive and this has more versatility. I actually used part of it to cover my dishwasher. It makes a great surface for the little ones to draw on. I wish it included some dry erase markers with it but it is a great product nonetheless! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
