This two-piece set from Pasenhome features 12 by 8-inch panels made from cast acrylic. Cast acrylic is selected for its molecular density, which provides better resistance to the chemical solvents found in markers compared to cheaper extruded versions. The 3mm thickness ensures the boards remain rigid, maintaining a low-profile look that doesn't clutter the visual space of a modern kitchen.
The engineering of these boards focuses on surface protection. Each of the four N52 Neodymium magnets is fitted with a silicone gasket. These gaskets are designed to provide friction, which helps the board stay in place, while also acting as a buffer to prevent "refrigerator rash" or scratches on the appliance surface. This setup is optimized for flat, high-carbon steel refrigerators commonly found in most homes.
To ensure the best possible grip, it is helpful to clean the refrigerator surface with a standard degreaser or isopropyl alcohol before mounting the boards.
The set includes six high-pigment liquid markers. These markers are designed to work well on non-porous surfaces like acrylic, though it is recommended to clean the board every 30 days to ensure the surface remains pristine. On darker appliances, high-contrast markers are suggested to improve the legibility of written notes.
Users who only need a single board for daily reminders might consider the JonXon 8x12 unit as a space-saving alternative.
These transparent planners are effective tools for maintaining an organized household, which you can read more about in the magnetic to-do boards collection.
