Customer Reviews for Melissa and Doug Deluxe Standing Easel

Great educational tool. Rating: 4/ 5 I got this easel for for my 5 yr. old son for Christmas. It was fairly easy to put together on Christmas eve and is holding up nicely. My son loves it. He practices writing his letters on the dry erase board, and loves to paint on paper the clips hold. The price i paid here was lower than anywhere else. Overall, a great, sturdy easel that we will get lots of use out of. Excellent easel, good value! Rating: 5/ 5 We bought this easel for our 5-year old. It has been frequently used by both the 5-year old and our 2-year old daughters. At first we were afraid that the little one was going to destroy the easel but it has withstood her attentions and is continuing to provide both girls with hours of fun! We have even attached extra-large writing paper to allow the oldest to practice her handwriting. She loves playing "school" with the easel as much as she loves drawing and painting! My granddaughter loves this easel! Rating: 4/ 5 This easel is great, especially when used with the rolls of paper. I'm not crazy about the chalk board portion, but my granddaughter doesn't use that so much. I wish the spaces provided for markers had been made deeper, but overall this was the best easel I could find. Not Understanding... Rating: 4/ 5 I'm not understanding what is so terrible about this easel. We've owned it for three years now and haven't had a problem. The only thing that I can complain about are those multi-colored plastic clips. They are terrible and will break upon opening. They serve no purpose as they do not work. This product would be better off without them. You can easily remedy this situation by going to your local office supply store to buy new art clips. As for the chalkboard, at first it is harder to write on. However, it does work it may just take a few initial masterpieces to get it started. Three years later this easel is perfect and allows children to write/draw beautifully and is the cause of many giggles in our home. You can still wipe it clean and make it look new after all these uses. Great product. Big hit with my 2 1/2 year old Rating: 5/ 5 My daughter wants to paint everyday now. This was easy to put together and it's very cute for a great price.
