MEEDEN Extra-Large Art Painting Easel: Solid Beech Wood Artist Easel - Professional Heavy-Duty Studio Easel for Adults - Movable H Frame Floor Easel Stand for Painting Canvas up to 79"

awesome, very solid, not to bad to put together. would order again.

Some assembly experience and skill are helpful, but not absolutely necessary. The instructions are good, but need to be followed closely. Most importantly, the easel is well engineered and fabricated. It is sturdy and versatile.

This is an astonishing easel for the money. Upon opening the box I found all the individual pieces carefully wrapped in protective padded sheets and separated by foam. All the pieces and bags of hardware were clearly labelled and the instructions very easy to follow. The kit even includes the correct tools for the light assembly required. Everything lined up and fitted together perfectly.I really can’t get over how solid and high quality the easel feels and how premium the unboxing experience was. It’s a little disappointing to see it’s made in China but it really doesn’t feel like a cheap mass market product at all.In terms of function it’s very flexible and will accommodate most canvases in all the positions one might prefer to paint in.I would highly recommend this easel to anyone looking for a top quality piece at a very reasonable price.

If I could give ten stars, I would. This is one of the best-designed and -made items I have ever purchased. The packing was perfect. All parts were labelled in order of assembly. The assembly was illustrated with clear and accurate line drawings, depicting the assembly as cumulating (in other words, not disconnected details). The wood is, indeed, beech—a very strong, straight-grained hardwood. All hardware fittings are metal, except for the plastic hand-knobs. Every part was precisely machined, and all slots/rabbets/holes perfectly aligned. Amazing. So many products now are made for the owner/purchaser to complete the assembly. This is, of course, a profit-boost in terms of manufacturing and shipping. Fair enough; I get it (especially the shipping costs). But never before have I seen the constituent parts so well made and precisely fitted. Let me repeat: Amazing! BTW, there is a very well made video online detailing the step-by-step assembly. You don't really need it, but it's there. Last point: great easel. The ability to position your work horizontally is a major benefit for, say, cutting frisket, applying paint that needs to flow out, etc. Everything about this item is absolutely first-rate. Last time: Amazing!

Great easel. Assembly instructions are confusing, but nothing you can’t figure out.

Strong and great function ability

I was so excited to get this easel and gave away my original 2. It was easy to put together, but it did have a couple of nuts missing. I am just now getting to paint on it . I was in the middle of moving to another area of the house and turning it into my art studio. so still getting stuff arranged and also having to attend art events.

I love working on this easel. I've been needing a new one. I cannot believe how meticulously this was packed. Definitely glad that I bought it. Beautiful and perfectly functional..
