My wife bought this dry erase board made by Quartet to be able to write quick messages or lists in the kitchen. Zillions of people have these, but here's what is problematic:
Pulling the marker from its holder takes about the same amount of torque to pull the board off of the refrigerator, because the board's magnets are so flimsy. Every time it falls (4 out of 5 times I've used it), it is aggravating and wastes time (why make it?). Also, the brand label was adhered to the board itself with adhesive that is very difficult to clean off, so upon first use, the residual adhesive made some of the black ink stick to it, leaving ungainly spots.

Those fridge-whiteboards are infuriating!!!
exactly the same thing happened to my board on first day of use.. i didn't realize it was the adhesive causing the ink to form an ugly sumdge. highly annoying.
Don't worry, the holder for the marker will soon break and then you won't have to worry about it pulling off!
