A whiteboard and its accessories can help you plan the week, prepare a meeting, explain a lesson or simply jot down the shopping list. But you need to pick the right model. After a few weeks, the unpleasant surprises soon mount up: a surface that retains marks, markers that dry out too quickly, or dimensions that don't suit the available space.
Before comparing the options, it's worth keeping three common pitfalls in mind.
For individual use, a compact size like 61 × 45.7 cm or 450 × 600 mm can fit perfectly on a desk, in a kitchen or in a student's bedroom. For meetings or group work, it's better to opt for a larger surface so you can clearly separate ideas, tasks and deadlines.
A planning board becomes even more practical when paired with the right accessories: markers in several colours, an eraser, a soft cloth and, if the surface allows, a few magnets. Remember to measure the wall or stand before placing your order.
Standard whiteboard markers use dry-erase ink. Closing the cap after each use is the best way to slow down drying. To keep your writing crisp, clean the surface regularly with an eraser or a soft cloth, without using any abrasive products.
Some erasable crayons or pens can also be used on slates, conference boards or other non-porous surfaces. However, always check the manufacturer's instructions before using them on a particular surface.
A fine tip makes it easier to write dates and fill in small boxes. A broader tip offers better readability during a presentation. Erasable pens with water-based ink can work well at school and at home, while an odour-free model will be more pleasant in a room with poor ventilation.
For flipchart markers, don't assume they will always erase on a whiteboard. Check the product description and make sure you know the difference between paper markers, dry-erase markers and board crayons.
Why this choice suits this profile: its size is ideal for a first installation in a personal space, for noting down appointments, tasks or reminders for the whole family.
The stated dimensions let you assess the actual footprint before buying, rather than ending up with a board that's difficult to fit in.
A compact dry-erase board, designed for organising the office and everyday tasks.
Why this choice suits this profile: this whiteboard roll lets you quickly turn a wall, table or any other flat surface into a writing space.
According to the product description, the adhesive whiteboard film is removable and repositionable. A welcome flexibility to avoid committing to a permanent installation.
Dimensions of 91.4 × 60.9 cm, a self-adhesive backing and stated compatibility with dry-erase markers.
Why this choice suits this profile: this set is aimed at teachers, meeting facilitators and regular users who write on whiteboards, slates or conference boards.
No need to rely on an ink supply that might dry out: the tip can be sharpened, according to the product information.
A pack of four colours, a formula stated to be solvent-free and odourless, and ink that erases with a dry or damp cloth.
Why this choice suits this profile: this pack of twelve markers is ideal for a classroom, a family or a team that regularly shares supplies.
The caps and barrels are colour-matched, so you can quickly find the right marker. The water-based ink is also stated to erase without leaving residue.
A bullet tip of 1.5 mm, four matching colours and an ergonomic grip as stated by the manufacturer.
We've put together a comprehensive, real-time updated selection of products that meet these demanding criteria and European safety standards.
A compact size is sufficient for reminders, lists and personal calendars. Measure the available width and leave enough space around the board to write comfortably. If several people need to use it, a model of 450 × 600 mm or larger will make it easier to read.
It all depends on how often you use them, the storage conditions and whether the cap is closed. A marker left open will dry out quickly. For heavy use, keep a spare pack or a sharpenable erasable crayon handy to avoid interruptions.
It can work for a temporary need, in a rented property or to create a flexible brainstorming area. Check compatibility with the surface, the removal method and the available dimensions. For very frequent daily use, also compare the stability and maintenance with those of a rigid board.
