Crayola Ultimate Light Board Drawing & Tracing Toy
Editorial verdict
Grounded in published specifications
Summary verdict: The screw-secured battery compartment is the safety feature that matters on any battery toy, because loose cells are among the most serious ingestion hazards in a home. The thing to budget for is markers: six are included, they are the consumable, and the board does nothing without them, so refills are an ongoing cost rather than an optional extra.
Who should buy this
Children 6 and over who like tracing and drawing away from a screen.
Who should avoid this
Anyone unwilling to buy marker refills -- the board is unusable without them.

Checked the weight claim
I compared four of these on paper before ordering, so the line I actually checked was "Weight". The page says 700 g, and that is what turned up. Screw-secured battery compartment, the relevant safety feature on a battery toy.

Three stars, and here is exactly why
Leading with the problem, because it is what I would have wanted to read: Markers are a consumable and refills are an ongoing cost. 3 AA batteries not included. Neither is hidden — both are listed on the page — but they matter more in daily use than they look on a spec sheet. I have kept it, for one reason: Screw-secured battery compartment, the relevant safety feature on a battery toy. That still outweighs the rest, but only just.

Right product for the right person
The page describes who this is for, and it described me: Children 6 and over who like tracing and drawing away from a screen. On that basis it has been the right call. Screw-secured battery compartment, the relevant safety feature on a battery toy.

No notes
Screw-secured battery compartment, the relevant safety feature on a battery toy. That was the whole reason I picked this over the cheaper options, and it is exactly as described. Also worth mentioning: A light panel rather than a display, so no screen-time concern. Been using it now for a couple of weeks.

After a few months
Had this about a month now, so this is not an unboxing opinion. A light panel rather than a display, so no screen-time concern. Still mildly irritated by one thing: Markers are a consumable and refills are an ongoing cost. Known trade-off rather than a fault, though, and I would buy it again.
