Review – Keeping organized is an ongoing struggle for me. I always look for products on the market that are easy to use and help keep my family organized. When the Boogie Board VersaTiles message board was available for review, I quickly registered. Check out my thoughts.
What is it?
As an alternative to messy dry erase boards and letter boards, Boogie Board’s VersaTiles message board is perfect for writing messages, notes, quotes, menus, reminders, or anything you might want to write down.

Design and features
VersaTiles message board uses Boogie Board’s patented technology, namely paperless LCD. It uses a stainless steel retractable stylus, such as the included VersaPencil stylus or whatever you can write on hand, because it is pressure sensitive. I tested and found that if you lose the stylus, your nails are a good alternative writing tool.
Check out this short video to understand how easy it is to use.
There is also a built-in mounting strip on the back of the VersaTile message board. When applying, wipe the surface and dry, remove the backing and keep the product close to the surface for 30 seconds. Note: The mounting strip is for one-time use and is not suitable for walls with high texture or poor quality. The manual does mention that due to the different wall materials, it is recommended to use #6 screws and anchors instead of tape, but they are not included in the package.
The Boogie Board VersaTiles message board does not need to be plugged in, charged or used! It only needs to use a replaceable 3V battery to run. As shown in the figure above, the battery slot is located at the bottom corner of the back.
As mentioned above, the VersaTile message board has 4 colors. In my comment, I chose sea blue.
what do I like
- There are 4 colors to choose from (onyx, sea blue, forest green, desert red)
- Battery powered
What will i change
- Add magnetic strips or stronger adhesive strips
- I want a large size option instead of buying multiple of this size and placing them next to each other
Final thoughts
If you are looking for a small alternative to dry erase boards, the VersaTiles message board is a good choice! I like that it has no clutter, does not need to be connected to a power source and is easy to use. My only complaint is that for me, I want to use it on the walls of small office rooms, but I found that the tape cannot be stuck to the wall of the course (as described in the manual, but I had to try it myself).
