- Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2025Color: BlackVerified PurchaseI feel weird about the clip on the top, I’ll be honest. I do like that you can slide it over the top of the erase button so you don’t have any accidental erases. But having it around during project times is great because you can diagram out your project and write down your measurements without the guilt of wasting your stationary. It’s also helpful for me when I’m trying to explain something to my husband since we have a small language barrier and sometime’s it’s easier to write things out.
Down to the meat and bones of it: The contrast is the same as those neon sign boards that were popular in the 90’s with a black background and neon markers. This does have a plasticy feel, but I don’t mind it at all. The size is literally the same as an iPad mini if you are having a hard time imagining it while you’re shopping. The design is mostly fine…I just hate the clip on the top…it could have been done better, but the stylus clips in nicely so you’re kids aren’t likely to lose it by accident…it takes some work.
If I were you, I’d buy this board…I’ve seen it come in handy everywhere in my house and even at the eye doctor since they can erase the private data that they may need to write down just for a second! So nice to have around!
- Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2025Color: PinkVerified PurchaseWhy did you pick this product vs others?:
This item was recommended to me by another person who also is unable to speak. I ordered it. It is perfect. No carrying tablets and pens and writing. I write and with one button it erases all I wrote. It is so light, less than 2 ounces. I may order another one and keep it in my car!
I have already recommended it to 2 other mute people!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2025Color: PinkVerified PurchaseExactly as described! The product does not feel cheap as well as the pen. It was very easy to write on. Haven’t had any issues. The screen quality was very soft. Size and color are accurate. I would say the only flaw is when u write on it the brightness is not too high which kinda makes it hard to read a bit at least for a person who wears glasses.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2025Color: CyanVerified PurchaseEasy to use. Push button erasure, no hassle. Able to write with pen or finger nail. Purchased for a disabled relative. However, smaller than anticipated.

- Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2025Color: CyanVerified PurchaseWe had an old Boogie Board that still actually works (after more than 10 years of use). But the pen was long gone and the back finally came off, so I ordered this as a replacement. It looks the same as our old one, but I’m very frustrated that the package DID NOT include the magnet to put it on the fridge as promised in the product description. So we really can’t use it until I get the magnet, which is disappointing. I reached out to customer service to send one, but who knows how long that will take?

4.0 out of 5 stars 8.5" Boogie board
Color: BlackVerified PurchaseI like the boogie board overall. It is very useful as a short note "paper" eg someone giving a 9 or 12 figit number that u cannot remember & u need to jot it down.
Things that could be better
1. The writing pen could have a narrower tip so the words don't have to be too big.
2. The pen holder is flimsy and moves. Needs a more robust design to how the pen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works amazing, saves trees :)
Color: CyanVerified PurchasePurchased as a gift for a wonderful senior lady who no longer speaks due to the ravages of illness. She generally shies away from technology but she uses this boogie board every day to communicate without a problem. Prior to receiving this, she utilized paper and pencil to communicate. The boogie board has the same feel as writing on paper with a pen, so she was able to use it within a few seconds of opening the box and didn't need to worry about learning any new skills to do so.
