18th January 2022 Reviewed by Peter Reid Incredibly well-engineered & assembled single-handedly in ~ 1hour. Instructions clear & accurate. It's a work of art and very robust. NB: the min. ht. from bottom of canvas to top of central pole is 56" (~142cm) so if you have a low ceiling you may need to adapt the easel if working vertically.

14th January 2020 Reviewed by Steven Johncock Great quality product and (relatively!) easy to assemble. Word of advice - check the maximum height the easel extends to against the height of your ceiling. Only half extended the easel reaches to my “studio” (garage) ceiling. The casters will make it easy to wheel outside in the summer though!

10th September 2019 Reviewed by Timothy Brow What a fabulous easel! I wondered how much the horizontal position option was worth - once you have this, it's hard to imagine how you managed without. Fairly easy to put together. Shelf could be either a little deeper or higher as a brush *** is hard to accomodate within it. Otherwise - marvelous

21st February 2019 Reviewed by Pierrette Thomet Stott Very solid yet versatile. When vertical it takes surprisingly little floorspace so can be tidied away when not in use without taking too much space in the studio. Table function is excellent for mixed media work. Simple to build, but best built by two people to make it less fiddly

Not particularly easy to construct and certainly needs more than one person. Once I got the help it went up quite quickly. Constructed it inside the house then wheeled it down the garden to the studio. Think I might need to trim some of the top off but will see how it goes.

14th July 2016 Reviewed by Jamie Clough I use this in my study, where It's great to have an easel I can wheel around instead of having to lift it to move it around. The easel itself is very sturdy and extremely well-made, not like cheaper easels I used at University.
The only reason I gave it 4 starts not 5 was because the instructions were usual Ikea style without any text, and the drawings of the parts were wrong - so I had to use my common sense based on the number of parts to figure out which screws went where.
However, saying that the build was not very difficult at all once getting over the instructions.
