Chad Valley 2-in-1 Magic Writer Reviews
4/5 K 'I bought this before Christmas as a present. It was a bit different from other reusable sketch pads as it could be used with colour and not just grey/black like most of these type of toys.'5/5 Kash74 'I brought this for my daughter and she absolutely loves it, keeps her busy when bored.'
5/5 Mm 'I bought this to my nephew and that’s his new favourite.'
5/5 Nicnacnoo 'I bought this item 3 months ago and is still in perfect condition compared to other brands I’ve had for my son previously'
2/5 EJackson 'Brought as a Xmas present - liked the fact that it worked as a white board and with the magnetic pen and stamps. However, the white board pen doesn’t wipe off well and leaves a stain. Always wiped away after a couple of minutes but doesn’t get fully removed. The board has little indents and scratches which the pen sticks too - but also stained any part of board.'

2/5 geee 'I bought this for my 3 year-old granddaughter, who has had one before. I thought the wipe-off pens would add a new dimension. On the morning she was given it, she drew on the board with red, and ws delighted that it wiped off. Then she tried the blue... PERMANENT marker! Nothing would get it off. Oh dear manufacturer! Schoolboy error! We had to return for a refund. This has made me a bit wary of Argos toys. Not quality-tested?'

3/5 mkee 'Bought 2 one for each grandson for stocking fillers have to say not that impressed wish I had bought the more expensive ones'
3/5 Rosie 'I bought this for my 18 month old grand daughter as I thought it would be less messy than her using felt tip pens on my table. However the coloured pens are simply that - they do not wipe away automatically when the magnetic erase slide bar is used - it is still necessary to wipe them off separately with a cloth which is messy and disappointing. More suited to older children.'
