My mother recently discovered diamond painting, and it’s quickly become one of her favorite hobbies. She finds it relaxing and rewarding—but there was just one problem: the lighting in her apartment wasn’t great for this kind of detailed work. She was struggling to see the tiny symbols on the canvas, which was starting to take away from her enjoyment.That’s when I came across this backlit tablet and thought it might help. I decided to order it for her, and I’m so glad I did.The tablet arrived securely packaged in a sturdy box, and right away, we could tell it was well made. Its size is perfect for A4 projects (12.5 x 8.6 inches), which covers most standard diamond painting canvases. If your canvas is larger, you can still make great use of it by moving the tablet underneath the section you're currently working on.One of the features we really like is the adjustable lighting. There are six brightness levels, which makes it easy to find the right amount of light depending on the time of day or how detailed the work is. It also lets you switch between three color temperatures: a cool white with a blue tint, a neutral white, and a warm white that’s softer on the eyes—especially helpful during evening sessions.To keep the canvas steady, the tablet comes with four magnets that hold it securely in place. It’s a simple touch, but very practical and appreciated.A couple of things to keep in mind: the tablet doesn’t include a power adapter, so you’ll need to have your own or use a USB power source. Also, the USB cable included in the box is on the shorter side, so depending on your setup, you might need a longer one.All in all, for $30 CAD, this backlit tablet is a great deal. It’s made a noticeable difference in how easily and comfortably my mom can enjoy her new hobby. As for how well it will hold up over time, we’ll have to wait and see—but so far, it’s been fantastic.My mother is really happy with this gift. She loves the convenience it offers and definitely recommends it to anyone who enjoys crafts that require precision and good lighting.

I wasn’t sure how much use I’d get out of a light board, but this one has become a quiet essential. It’s light as anything and slim enough to slip between books on a shelf, but sturdy enough to work on without fuss. I plugged it into my Mac using a USB-C adapter and just got to work. No setup, no drivers, no drama.The light is clean and even—no dull corners or flicker—and there’s a gentle range of warmth and brightness to suit whatever you’re doing. I tend to favour the warmer tone in the evenings when I’m drawing, but it’s easy to adjust as you go. The physical buttons on the side are a welcome detail: nothing accidental gets pressed, and I like that I can operate it without looking.There’s a magnetic layer on the surface which is actually useful—I used the little round magnets to pin down some vellum while I traced. Everything stayed in place. The board has measurements along all four edges, which has already saved me hunting for a ruler mid-task.It’s compact, clever, and well-built. I’ve already started using it for more than just drawing—notes, mockups, anything fiddly. Surprisingly handy and very good value for what it offers.

I've used another light board in the past and this one was much better. With the different light colour options and the various brightness levels, this offers a lot of adaptability for various projects. It's lightweight and large enough that most of my diamond art pieces should fit on it easily. The light really helps highlight those tiny numbers and letters so my older eyes can see them without additional strain. The magnets are quite strong, although I wish there were a few more to help hold down the corners AND the plastic sheet as I peel it back in sections. The board itself doesn't get sticky or hot so you can rest your wrist and arm on it, if necessary. The included USB cord is about 6' long so it has the length to make it to a nearby plug (you need to provide the adapter). Overall, this is a great light board that you can customize to your lighting needs.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ = Exceeds expectations⭐⭐⭐⭐ = As described⭐⭐⭐ = A flaw or two⭐⭐ = Serious drawbacks⭐ = No, thank you

This is an excellent lightweight light board that makes tracing and drawing a joy. It comes with a USB lead not a plug but that worked in its favour for me. I used the side socket of my MAC (and a short USB to USC cable adaptor) to power up the light board - and stood it for extra firmness on top of my laptop whilst I worked on my drawing project on my lap. You could of course just as easily set it on an office desk or a table at home.The Toheto white board will fully illuminate A4 sized paper and its front service is magnetic. This means that you can use the with four handy magnets that come with it to secure your designs and papers as you work. I liked the choice of both colour brightness and shade - as well as the obvious white you could also opt for your Light box to show in grey or warm colour tones. The warm one as you'd expect was most easy on the eye.I do all of my creative work at home - but even so I appreciated just how lightweight this was when I chose to use it in different places in the home.The control buttons on the side are simple to use - a quick press and it's on, then simply select brightness and colour hue. Final plus point: the edges are marked like rulers - two sides metric, two imperial. In short, this is a great piece of kit and on offer at a very good value price.
