VersaChalk A-Frame Sidewalk Chalkboard - 42"x24"

Awesome chalkboard! You get what you pay for here and it's well worth the price. The frame is heavy duty and made of solid wood. It must weigh 20 pounds or so. This is NOT the cheap junk that is so easy to find these days. The actual chalkboard is blemish free and easily takes the chalk, unlike some chalkboards you have to struggle with. It's sturdy and has a chain underneath to help it hold its position. I'm planning on taking this to the farmer's market this summer; meanwhile, my 4 year old is having a great time drawing on each side. In fact, it's ideally suited to him as it's just the right height and stays put. We have used both chalk markers and regular chalk on it already and erased over and over and the surface remains clean and clear. Definitely happy to have this. On top of its functionality -- it looks great. It's in the living room and actually adds to our farmhouse themed décor.

**Updated review** I left a 3 star review a few days ago, because I had some issue getting some of the writing and drawing off the board. I received a package in the mail yesterday from the owner of the company, with a hand written card, a complete cleaning kit for my board and a brand new set of high quality liquid chalk pens. The cleaning kit (from VersaChalk) successfully removed all the marks that were left on my board, and the Versachalk pens work WAY better than the other, cheaper pens I had bought. This is definitely one of the best customer service experiences I've had in a long time, and they made a customer for life.**Original review** The board looks great and the quality of the frame is good. My only complaint (and it's kind of a big deal) is that if you leave the same thing written on the board for more than a few days, it doesn't come off 100%. My board is full of letters and drawings that are not coming off and you can clearly see it at the right angle. (**Again, their cleaning kit was successful at remove those marks that were left on my board**)

I was so happy with the order when it arrived, but only a few weeks later the chalkboard is completely warped and unusable on both sides. We have only used Versachalk products and Versachalk cleaner on the board as well so this is a HUGE disappointment. We had an IKEA chalkboard for five years that is still in great condition and it was $15.

I love the design of these boards as they are not your average cheap chalkboard. They can be used for anything as they have a very elegant look to them. They are also more smoother than the chalkboards I remember as a child. Chalk shows up much more brighter and very noticeable. Plus the chalk comes off easy. I was a little nervous to use liquid chalk on them but found they worked out great.We've practiced writing fun sayings for our upcoming wedding. I will update with photos once we decide on the perfect wording. All in all, I am super excited to use this for our wedding. It is not the cheapest chalkboard on the market, but the quality is superb. I definitely see this lasting a long time.

I have purchased two of these and they look great at first. However after the first week we started noticing big bubbles forming on both sides. The company was awesome in replacing them promptly. They have taken my complaints seriously and will be trying to figure out why this happened to the four frames I have had. I wouldn't hesitate to order from a company who is so willing to stand by their product!I really hope they work out this time as they are a great way to get your message noticed.

I’ve bought at least a dozen of these a-frame signs for our campus. I’ve used paint pens to directly chalk the board, and they turn out beautifully (Coffee photo). Just be sure to chalk the entire surface using plain white chalk (and wipe down) before using chalk markers for the first time - otherwise your design might become permanent. When I don’t have 4-5 hours to chalk them, I design artwork (Illustrator or Canva) on a chalkboard texture and have them printed on adhesive paper at Staples (Wed Meal photo). They are great for directional signs, announcements, etc.

I am reviewing years after purchasing and my product is still going strong. It is beautiful to look at and it sure has presence. I call it elegant. It is very sturdy and remains in great condition as well. A little bit of shadowing in one area but I believe it was from keeping the writings on the board for extended periods of time in a few instances. Nothing to affect the overall functioning of the board though. Ah Love It! Oh, I use the board for kids fun event and transport it from place to place.

This sign is tall and wide! So glad that we made the purchase for this awesome magnetic chalkboard sign. Magnets hold well on here, and now I wish that we would have bought two of these. Better than the ones you find at Ross! It has a very professional look, and there’s no chain on the bottom of the sign, but locking hinges on both sides of the sign, which I think is way better than the chain!
