Buddha Board reviews and discussion

I love Buddha Board. It's such a fun, relaxing, and zen activity. It really helps me when I'm feeling an anxiety attack coming on. Some people love fidget toys but, for me, I love the quiet meditation of using a Buddha Board. I think this would be great gifts if you have someone who loves painting even though this is temporary, water-based art.

it works exactly as advertised but once the initial fun wears off, you're left wondering why you bought this in the first place. The slate dries very quickly and so your water painting lasts a minute if that.

I like the idea of the fleeting drawings and doodles but I don’t know…?

It's interesting for a while, and is great fun for the grandkids.

It's fun to use but not sure what the advantage is over a white board or pen and paper. Can be a nice gift/doodle toy, but is often hard to get the right amount of water for the doodle to show up.

There's something about this that I really love - the impermanence of life exemplified in very short-lived impermanence of art. And yet perhaps I'm not quite as enlightened as all that, as I got bored with this pretty quickly.

This is a unique way to make fleeting designs. However, like others mentioned the novelty wears off quickly. I was a bit disappointed with how quickly the images dried and also how quickly the water storage section evaporates. I found myself constantly needing to refill and gave up quickly.

It’s a cool idea, and is fun to play with for a couple of minutes, but I don’t see myself using this in the future. Not really worth the money. Quality construction but not sure I entirely understand the concept
