Product Description

With the Melissa & Doug Deluxe Art Easel, children can create art with paint, chalk, pens, crayons, markers, and more, all at one convenient station. And when art time is over, parents and caregivers will appreciate the two-sided easel’s easy-to-clean design. Designed for kids ages three and up, this easel will provide hours of creative activity that is both educational and enjoyable. The easel features a bi-fold wood frame with two art stations, one on each side, which allows two children to work at one time. It’s also designed to let children experiment with several different art media: on one side is a chalkboard, on the other is a dry erase board, and in between the two easel sides is a dowel for holding a paper roll. The easel includes sturdy clips that can hold oversized individual art papers onto the easel's surfaces. Our kids art easel features a sturdy wooden frame, is easy to assemble, and folds flat for easy storage. It’s height adjustable, and it ships in Certified Frustration-Free Packaging, with paper, paint, cups, paint brushes and chalk sold separately. The Melissa & Doug easel for kids works best with an 18-inch paper roll. It contains multiple small pieces and is not intended to use for any children under three years of age. The easel measures 47" x 27" x 26" when assembled and weights 19.2 pounds. For more than 30 years, Melissa & Doug has created beautifully designed imagination- and creativity-sparking products that NBC News called “the gold standard in early childhood play.” This product is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council. FSC certification ensures that products come from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social, and economic benefits, and that forests are protected for future generations. Please note that FSC certification applies to new inventory only (FSC C156584)

    5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best gifts a child can have!
    Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2010
    Verified Purchase
    There is not a day that gos by that my niece Aniya doesn't use this easel. Whether its drawing on the whiteboard with markers, practicing her alphabet and numbers on her chalk board, drawing pictures of the family or creating the next Picasso, Aniya uses her easel to the fullest.

    I have to say that this is one of the absolute best things you could get for a child. They are able to express themselves artistically in a number of different ways, plus as a bonus you can also use the easel for education purposes. This makes it even easier to teach, as the child has already associated the easel with fun and games. I purchased this easel for my niece last Christmas and she is still using it! How many toys do you buy your child, only to have them stop playing with it? I guarantee that won't happen with this purchase and that you will get your moneys worth; I know I did.

    Aniya's mom was able to put together the easel with no problem what so ever, this says a lot as the women in my family eventually come to me so I can put together the items they purchased. The brushes the easel comes with are easy for a child to grip and the paint is of high quality. Although the selection of paint is limited you can teach your child how to mix colors to produce another. There are also separate paint sets that can be purchased as well.

    A mess is something to expect with an easel. As you teach your child how to paint properly and mess free you will have less and less to clean up. Make sure you purchase an apron and a floor mat for your child, as they will certainly make some sort of mess on themselves and on the floor.

    I only wish I had gotten one of these when I was a kid, I would have had so much fun with my mom.

    Here is a recap of what the easel comes with

    * Dry erase board
    - For dry erase markers

    * Fold nice and neat to store in the corner or under a bed, easy-clean storage
    -It gets used so much that it never gets folded unless we are cleaning up, but it is easy to do so anyway.

    * Comes with the accessories needed to help turn your child into the next Van Gogh

    * Includes chalkboard, a locking paper roll holder, a child-safe paper cutter, 4 clips and a plastic tray
    -This should last for about a month or two, depending on use. Remember to purchase refills ahead of time so you won't disrupt your child's fun.

    * Amazon Frustration-Free packaging
    - so simple that anyone can unpack it.

    * Exceptional quality and value
    -So true, this easel has the ability to withstand a beating. Even with daily use its still in mint-condition.

    * Features double sided chalk and dry erase-boards
    - Great for versatility, kids get bored sometimes when doing the same thing over and over. This adds versatility to their routine and allows them access to different mediums of workspace.

    * Height adjustable
    - Translation: Can be used by any child, making the easel itself easy to use for any age or size.

    * Includes a locking paper roll holder, a child-safe paper cutter, four clips and a plastic tray. Easy-clean storage
    - I have yet to see the rolls of paper fall. The trays themselves are indeed easy to clean.

    This is easel board is very great quality for the price ! It’s sturdy and it looks very nice. This was a gift for my daughter’s 5th birthday and I highly recommend if you put it together do it before hand because the assembly can be confusing and is very time consuming, at times some screws seemed to not fit when trying to secure the bolts but this however did not take away from the quality of the overall product in our case which is why I still rate it 5 stars. It also does not come in a manufacturer box with the contents displayed on the outside it just comes in a standard brown shipping box. This is just something to keep in mind when planning how to gift it!

    I got this for my almost 3yr old grandbaby, she's of average height and when we assembled it we put it on the lowest level. It was perfect height for her little reach and she absolutely loves it. She draws, scribbles and we practice ABC and 123..it's a perfect toy for learning and fun. Best of all, it will grow with her for YEARS! This isn't one of thos here today, gone tomorrow toys. This WILL last. It is super sturdy, very easy to store in a corner. Comes just a pictured with all the accessories. Assembly was required. It wasn't difficult for my husband to put together. Overall, I would definitely recommend this for your little , and big ones.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great easel, but a few issues on the production end
    Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2023
    Verified Purchase
    This is a well designed, sturdy, attractive easel, and will give my granddaughter years of creative fun. It’s easy to assemble, especially if you read the instructions first, and then pay close attention to the pictures. I would have given it 5 stars, but there are some issues on the production end. The hinges are a little flimsy, and bend very easily, so be careful not to let them twist during assembly. The countersunk holes for the long screws weren’t deep enough for the long screws so I had to use a wood chisel to carve them deeper (also, 2 of the long screws were missing). Some of the bolt caps were stripped and wouldn’t tighten, and two of them were cracked and broke apart when I put them on.
    The good news is that I called Melissa & Doug’s 800 number and they’re sending replacement parts for free (I did have to provide photos of the parts, and the labels on the delivery box). Kind of a pain in the neck, but I’ve learned, over the years, that sometimes diy assembly goes perfectly and sometimes issues occur on the production and packaging end. Once assembled it’s great. Just be prepared for those countersink holes. I’ve read on other reviews that I’m not the only one who had a problem with them.

    Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2016
    Verified Purchase
    This Melissa and Doug easel is great! Before purchasing this I read a large number of reviews. I found it very easy to assemble. In the directions it says to make sure that the label stickers are facing each other when putting the legs together. I think this might be the reason another reviewer said the holes didn't line up correctly. Another review said the number of knobs made it look odd by not having them all match up, like all of one side being the same color. Because of this, I thought the color placement out before putting it together. I really like how the color mix turned out. A few people said that the chalk board didn't work right. I ordered the Melissa and Doug chalk to go with it in case the type of chalk mattered. The chalkboard and the dry erase board both work great. Easy to write on and easy to wipe off. I also really like that it can be adjusted to three heights. My almost five year old is on the middle one so there is still plenty of room to grow with her. She really loves this easel and I love that it is helping her with writing and drawing skills at the same time as allowing her to be creative. It is very sturdy and I believe it will last a long time.

    This was really easy to assemble and it’s clever how we can attach the paper roll into middle support bar.

    Haven’t tried the chalkboard side yet, but we are generally ok with cleanups for the whiteboard end (using Crayola washables).

    It is easy to stain the wood, as what other reviewers state, which is a shame. But otherwise all good and the kids love it

    I love how sturdy this is, my daughter got this for Christmas and she has spent hours painting and using the chalk board. The paint comes easily off the dry erase side. I also really like how easy it is to adjust the height of the boards, you can adjust the height while the other side is being drawn on.
