I used to have a large blank calendar style one, but my family kept knocking it off the wall, lol, so I switched to a paper desktop calendar instead. I do have a small magnetic dry erase board I use on the fridge, though, for jotting down grocery items or listing out the week's meals so I can end that "What's for dinner?" question, lol. ;)

What do you use to clean it? I used to use alcohol and a cotton ball or tissues to clean mine, since I found that worked better and was less expensive than the special dry erase cleaner and eraser.

I have one but don't use it. The markers, even the thin ones, write so big that you can't fit much in each area and if you do, then it all looks so messy and I can hardly read it. I have a big desktop calendar and use pencil to write on it. : )

Hi!  I usually just wipe mine with a papertowel and maybe a little bit of cleaner.  So far, it is working :)

Hi!  I know what you mean about the markers...I have a large gray colored board that is working better than the traditional white one.  It's a metal color and I use darker colors on it.
