I like the idea for this product and I like the actual product. It's sturdy, lays flat, and the dry erase markers I have write on it nicely and, most importantly, erase easily. However, there are a few things that keep this product from being 'perfect' for my TTRPG games.1 - The boards are 'slippery' on a wood table.Because the surface is made to write on with dry erase markers, the boards can slide when touched and set on a smooth surface, like a wood tabletop. With several people sitting around the table playing, it's fairly easy to move the boards, especially if you have both set out, making them easily misaligned (if your map covers both boards. I plan to affix some of those small rubber 'feet' to both sides to help keep this from happening. If the board came with them as an option (for those who would like to install them, that would be awesome, imo).2 - The print between the two separated boards is off a bit on mine. That means I cannot align the grids correctly. They're not far off, but it's off enough to bug someone with OCD.3 - Related to #1 above - since the surface coating makes these boards a bit slick on some surfaces, it can be difficult to keep the boards, and your map, together if you're using both boards. It would be cool if there were a means of 'attaching' them so the two boards function as one. Maybe some kind of temporary 'tape' that could be affixed to the boarder area to keep them from separating when jostled?Overall, the main idea is great and I like this better than the vinyl rollout mats. But I think this needs a bit more work to be a $60 product, to be frank. Overall, I'm still giving this 4 stars because it does what it advertises and I do like it.

This product is exactly as expected, it is a large dry erase board (like a board game board, not the kind you would find in schools) that quad folds down to a smaller panel for easy storage. There are 2 detached boards in this that can be pushed together to form one giant board, which should be more than big enough for any combat encounters you might run. A single board is often enough for a full battle mat, which means this package effectively comes with 2, meaning you can run 2 different combats at once on their own board. And of course this has hexes on one side and squares on the other. This board provides a ton of versatility. My only complaint is that when pushing the boards together, my particular boards don't line up perfectly, so when my boards are physically in line with each other, the lines don't match up, I have to offset the boards slightly for the lines to match.

I got this as a birthday present for our DM while we run Curse of Strahd. We were having trouble erasing on the vinyl board, and this works so much better. We use the squares so we have to fold them in, but we are able to fold them in and use the same map for another occasion. It cleans off easily, we've been using it every week.

Love that it's 2 halves for large and smaller battle maps. Perfect for most ttrpgs that use grid and hex.

Didn't expect it to be in two pieces, but thats okay. The first half is as big as I could even fit on my d&d table easily so honestly I'm gifting the other half to my dm in another game. This board is huge. The unfolding ends don't fit together or anything so if it wobbles just use a piece of tape and it works great, plus easy to remove because of the dry erase material.

This product provides two style options - squares or hexagons.

This was the perfect solution to a rather vexing issue. For some time now I've been using a roll up hex map for my gaming. It's not bad and does the trick but it's a bit small at times and once rolled up for storage you can never get it to lay flat again. The corners have to be weighted down during sessions. This solves all of these annoying issues. Well constructed, easy to clean, easy to store and you never have to worry about it rolling up on you during the game. And being able to modify the size as needed is a tremendous bonus.

Genial. Tiene un tamaño bueno y cómo tiene dos partes separadas puedes usar solo una si no necesitas más, o dejar una parte preparada mientras usas la otra para agilizar

Die Lieferung ging fix und ich kann nichts negatives dazu äußern.Ich liebe es und meine Gruppe auch.Es ist super praktisch für dsa um sich Wege aufzuzeichnen, generell die Umgebung nochmal zu verbildlichen oder sich Stichpunkte zu lp o.ä. zu notieren, die man nur für kurze Zeit braucht. So spart man den Platz auf dem Papier für gravierendere Merkmale. Man hat definitiv mehr Übersicht auf seinem zettelchen.

Not as handy as a roll up matt but then it doesn't roll up mid game.And it's being double sided means I can RQ, GURPs, D&D, StarFinder, etc as I please

Updated!First off, I do plan to revise my review to four or five stars, why? I'll get to that after some things you should know.The first off is the mold issue you'll read about? It's gone. I reached out to the seller the day I bought this and asked them about it. It took them an hour or two to get back to me. They've added silica packets to the boxes and started vacuum sealing the boxes. Mine smelled kinda like a new car's glove box. (I'm actually letting air IN right now)Second, This is what I plan to revise depending on their response. One of the two slats, yes it's so big it's in two parts, came scratched on one side and with strange dimpling on the other. Normally not a big deal...but they're just deep enough to catch marker ink. Thus making it difficult to clean.Third, the actual product review. First. This thing is giant. You can easily have multiple dungeons on it or you can have one mega-dungeon on it.>The material is solid, I tried to fold the thing up once incorrectly? It wouldn't even let me. It stuck at a right angle.>It's hinges? I think they might have some type of tape inside because they had some resistance to them.>As I mentioned earlier it has two "slats." They're each so big you could easily use one or the other as its own board.>Best part of the two slats? They line up. Per-fect-ly. On both sides. Yeah, they went there. BAM.>I tested the erasability in a corner with three different brands. Slides right off clear. I can see it getting stained after a while, maybe a few years of use? But what board doesn't?>For bang for your buck? You're getting four boards in one essentially. Two physical and two too draw on.I'll update my review to five or four stars depending on the outcome of my damage issue.Edit: Updated my review, while they were not able to replace my damaged slat, the vendor was 100% understanding and refunded more than half of the purchase price.

Sono soddisfattissimo del prodotto. Il pacco è bello e solido e fin da subito me ne sono innamorato. La tavola è davvero spaziosa sia se si utilizza metà che per intero. Sulle istruzioni c'è scritto che si può tagliare per poterne usare un quarto ma non ho ancora provato per paura di rovinarla. Uniche pecche: arriva senza pennarelli o pezzuola per cancellare e quando bisogna usarne un quarto la tavola non si piega benissimo ed è possibile usare solo i quadrati e non gli esagoni.
