classic easel
This kiddraft easel is a beauty to any room. It is sturdy, so strong build, easy to put together and has two sides for writing or coloring. This can keep children busy for a long time. I appreciate the cups for holding the chalk and eraser. Be aware this easel is large, not tiny like others. Perfect for children 3 to 12 plus. The design of this piece is absolutely classy...

Another dud from KidKraft
Well, they have done it again. Last year, we received the KidKraft train table, and I reviewed it negatively.
If I had a choice in the matter, I would definitely have gone with a different company, but, alas, my mother-in-law did not read my review. To clarify, the easel we received was not exactly the one pictured. They have the same product number, but ours...

classic easel, June 28, 2009
This kiddraft easel is a beauty to any room. It is sturdy, so strong build, easy to put together and has two sides for writing or coloring. This can keep children busy for a long time. I appreciate the cups for holding the chalk and eraser. Be aware this easel is large, not tiny like others. Perfect for children 3 to 12 plus. The design of this piece is absolutely classy and decorates any children.s room or class room beautifully. thank you, this is a super dea for this price. Be careful when you compare prices....you can get it without shipping and handling plus no tax plus 10% off ....same exact easel.

Excellent product!, January 11, 2007
This review is from: KidKraft Deluxe Wood Easel (Toy)
I had been looking for a solid wood easel, that was sturdy and yet could be stored easily. Deluxe wood easel was the perfect choice. The quick delivery was also a plus! Amazon is a great place to start your search for so many things.

Solid, durable, multi-purpose easel, November 16, 2008
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: KidKraft Deluxe Wood Easel (Toy)
I researched many easels before purchasing this one. It includes a chalkboard, white board, and a paper roll at the top, which can be pulled down for drawing. I bought this for my twins' 3rd birthday. Now, they are 4-1/2 and they and their friends continue to get a lot of use out of this. The only problem is that I regularly have to tighten the screws to hold parts of the easel together. Also, the cups which hold paint are not really necessary and I would have preferred that there were not holes in the trays for the cups. Otherwise, I am very happy with this purchase.

Another dud from KidKraft, December 23, 2009
This review is from: KidKraft Deluxe Wood Easel (Toy)
Well, they have done it again. Last year, we received the KidKraft train table, and I reviewed it negatively.
If I had a choice in the matter, I would definitely have gone with a different company, but, alas, my mother-in-law did not read my review. To clarify, the easel we received was not exactly the one pictured. They have the same product number, but ours is "B" instead of "A".
I did have an open mind to start, but it became closed when I tried to assemble the thing. Two problems: the trays that you attach are supposed to have plastic washers so you can fold them up, but because they drilled holes with wells in them, the washers lie flush with the wood, and therefore do not do the job. Not only that, now there is a space on either side that must be filled with an extra washer (or 2, I don't know). I'm sure the company will send me some, but not in time for Christmas.
The second problem is more frustrating. The easel is supposed to open up to stand better and fit a tray at the base. However, because of the way the hinges are attached at the top, and the supporting pieces are not rounded at the top, it DOES NOT open more than 30 degrees or so.
And let me add that this is an expensive product, one that you would expect to be made with more attention to quality and detail. For that reason, I feel I can be more pointed in my criticisms.
I will add that I don't know if the kids will like it or care about what I will have to do to the thing to make it work. But, in conclusion, I would seriously think twice about ordering from this company.
I hope this is helpful.

The BEST easel, but still has one flaw..., October 29, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This easel is the best I've seen for quality. We've had ours (purchased from Costco for half this price) for three years and it's still looking great. The adjustable height feature is handy to accomodate my daughter's growth- lowest setting worked for her at 15 months, and she currently uses it at the highest setting as a VERY tall 4 1/2-yr-old. Paper roll size is standard and easily replaced. I love the rack on the bottom for drying paintings or just extra storage (most others don't have that). It cleans easily and is extremely sturdy and well-made- like I said, the best I've seen. The one flaw, in my opinion is that neither side is magnetic. This would have added another element of fun, and I am disappointed about it. That said, I still rate it 5 stars and if it were ever destroyed (in a fire or something) we would pay full price to replace it, no question!

Outstanding Product, August 29, 2008
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: KidKraft Deluxe Wood Easel (Toy)
I had not seen this easel "in person" prior to purchase, but it appeared to be of quality. It is a very solid piece of furniture. Delivery was earlier than expected (a good thing) and KidKraft sent the missing plastic washers (not a big deal) promptly. It will be around for many years!!

Love this easel!, January 7, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: KidKraft Deluxe Wood Easel (Toy)
My 4 year old and 2 year old just love this toy. It seems to be durable and is an attractive addition to the playroom. The chalkboard came with a little scatch on it and the customer service at KidKfraft was fantastic. We received a replacement easel top within days.

Wooden Easel, January 6, 2010
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: KidKraft Deluxe Wood Easel (Toy)
We purchased this for our 2-1/2 year old granddaughter last Christmas and it was the #1 hit. Now a year older, she's still enjoying the easel and painting -- asks to use it most every day. One side is for paper and paints; the other for blackboard and chalks. She truly loves it. It sits in their small kitchen and doesn't take up much space. The blackboard is always available, but mom and dad bring out the paints and set in the grooved tray when it's time to paint. A great way to encourage creativity! The construction is sturdy and attractive.

Perfect child's art easel!, July 16, 2010
This is the first time that I've written a review for something I've purchased online, because I felt that I had to share how wonderful this product is! We purchased this easel for our 2 year old's birthday in May and she has been in love with it since the day we put it together! Her dad leaves for work before she wakes up every morning, so he leaves her a message on the chalkboard side everyday. She always goes to see what dad has drawn for her or written to her each morning!
We love that there is a storage tray under the easel and can keep all our daughter's art supplies handy and off the floor when she's not using them. That was a feature that wasn't in many of the other easels we had researched. We also like that the the paper roll is on top of the easel and makes folding the easel flat for storage simple. We know that it's recommended for children over the age of 3, but she's always supervised when using the easel and after putting it together, we were confident that it is sturdy; all joints are snug. There are no small pieces that she can swallow.
This easel is a beautiful shade of espresso and coordinates well with our dark wood furniture. We would most definitely recommend it!
