Nicpro A3 Magnetic Double-Sided Dry Erase Whiteboard (30 x 42 cm) with 8 Pens and Eraser
Product description
The essentials
If you want a dry wipe writing surface that’s easy to use in a classroom or at home, the Nicpro A3 magnetic double-sided board is built for that simple routine. It’s a 30 x 42 cm whiteboard with a black border, magnetic surface, and soft plastic edges designed to help prevent scratches during everyday handling.
What makes it stand out on paper is the double-sided format. You get two usable sides in the same overall board size, which can be genuinely handy when lessons involve quick drafts, diagrams, or a fresh view for the next activity. There’s also a set of eight water-based pens (in multiple colours) plus an eraser included, so you’re not immediately searching for extra accessories.
That said, a quick reality check: this type of board relies on a smooth, wipeable surface and decent marker quality. If you’re planning long-term, heavy-duty use or you’re very sensitive to how “clean” erasing feels, you may want to compare against higher-spec boards before committing.
Key features and what you’ll notice day to day
This is a straightforward dry erase setup: write with the included pens, wipe clean, and reuse to reduce paper waste. The board is described as having a smooth, durable magnetic surface that’s anti-scrap, which is exactly what you want if it’s going to sit on desks, be moved around, or get used daily by students.
Because it’s magnetic, you can stick magnets to the board (the product description notes that the board cannot stick to a refrigerator surface). In classroom terms, that’s useful for pinning up ideas, arranging small reminders, or keeping visual aids in place—without turning everything into a paper stack.
The 6 mm thick double-sided design is also aimed at durability for normal use. Soft plastic edges are there to reduce the chance of visible damage from knocks or contact with other items in storage.

Where it shines (and where it can fall a bit short)
It makes sense if you’re after an A3 board that’s portable enough for everyday classroom use, but still big enough for notes, simple diagrams, and general explanations. The size is described as big enough to have room for teaching and learning, while remaining manageable for storage and moving between rooms.
The double-sided layout is the main practical win. It can help you keep one side “for reference” while you write new content on the other. If you’re running quick exercises—like writing a working example on one side, then switching to a fresh layout for the next question—it’s easier than constantly clearing everything mid-flow.
On the flip side, double-sided boards don’t remove the fact that surface quality and erasing performance can vary across dry wipe boards. If your priority is ultra-smooth, effortless wiping after lots of marker ink build-up, you might find better results with more premium boards. Also, because it’s only 30 x 42 cm, it may feel small if you routinely plan complex, large diagrams.
Practical tips for best results
Getting the most from it is mostly about keeping the routine simple.
For example, in a home tutoring session, you could use one side for the “worked steps” and the other side for the student’s attempt. When they finish, you wipe only the writing side and leave the example visible, which can reduce back-and-forth explanations.
A couple of sensible handling notes based on the description: keep the soft plastic edges protected during storage, and use the included pens (they’re water-based) so you’re not mixing in markers that may erase differently.
Is it worth it?
A solid pick if you want a portable A3 dry erase whiteboard for student or home writing and drawing, especially if you like the idea of a magnetic, double-sided layout and you’d rather have pens and an eraser included from day one.
It may not be the best choice if you need a board that’s designed to attach directly to a fridge (it’s not made for that), or if you’re aiming for top-tier erasing performance after very heavy daily use. In those cases, it’s worth comparing against alternatives with more emphasis on surface longevity and wipe consistency.
Mini FAQ
Does it include markers and an eraser?
Yes. The pack includes 8 water-based pens (multiple colours) and 1 eraser.
Is the board magnetic?
Yes, the surface is described as magnetic, so magnets can stick to it. However, the board cannot stick to a refrigerator surface.
Can I use it for classroom activities?
That’s a key use case for this size. The description positions it as suitable for classroom use while remaining portable for storage and easy manoeuvring.
Is it wipeable and reusable?
Yes—on paper it’s designed for reuse, with writing and wiping to reduce paper waste.
What’s the benefit of being double sided?
You effectively get two writing surfaces in one board, which can make it easier to switch between reference content and fresh work without constantly starting from a blank slate.
