Janod J09601 Height Adjustable Wooden Easel, Graffiti

Seemed sturdy upon initial opening. However some of the screws were bent and the locking peg mechanism to keep the tray stable was slightly flimsy.The writing on the black and white boards were chipped and the whiteboard itself seemed very cheap.I had to send this back after a day and a half as the tray somehow managed to break into two parts exposing nails. The nails seemed very bent as if they had not been latched on properly to the other side of the tray. However, I acknowledge that I did buy this from the warehouse deals, but with that being said, it should not have been sold in an unsafe condition.The extendable legs are an OK design but I can imagine that unless you have it on the lowest level, it may be hard to get all of the legs perfectly even as there are no grooves to assist you.I'd pay £30 for this at most, there is nothing particularly exclusive or unique about it.

Great easel with all the features I was looking for (blackboard, whiteboard, magnetic, paper holder, tray for pots of paint etc). My children (4 and 3) love it and spend lots of time feeling creative but I did have to buy extra markers and a rubber for the whiteboard. Saying that I haven't bought one for the blackboard but will do as the one that comes with the easel scratches it! Also as mentioned in other reviews the letters and frame on the actual drawing area peel off very easily (what's the point in having these if they don't stay) one month down the line is looking very untidy; once it disappears completely it will look better I hope! Overall great buy but needs some extra investment.

Bought this for my 2 and a half year son for Christmas. He absolutely loves it so it was a great purchase. It is pretty sturdy and the added benefit that you can adjust the height so it can grow with him. At the moment it is on the smallest height setting so it should last him for years. I think it was pretty good value for money compared to others I looked at. The things that are not so great, the magnetic bar that holds down the paper isn't the strongest and the white board pen broke on the first use (son was a little heavy handed) but they are minor issues so overall really happy with our purchase.

lovely productanti- dust chalks instead of dust chalks ( part of the accessories ) would increase desirability of this easeland small clips would improve painting or drawing experience on paper from the paper roll aboveand if the easel would be able to get even at higher level than the recent maximum height-I would not probably resist to get one for me as an adult ;-)

Lovely bright and fun design. Has all the bells and whistles. But unfortunately one of the nuts was threaded so had to buy a new one before assembling. Also the wooden dowels that hold it together could be a bit of a tighter fit as they can shake loose if not careful. My little one loves it and has had so much fun already.

Great item. A very sturdy easel which is easy to assemble, is height adjustable and folds flat for easy storage. It comes with chalk, duster, magnets and paper - just assemble and it's ready to use. I looked a various easel's and this one is good value for money. I'm would highly recommend this one as my 2 1/2 year old granddaughter loves it.

Bought one for each of my great-grandchildren. They both love it and use every day.

My daughter loves this. It is adjustable to her required height, is sturdy, has plenty of drawing/painting options and can fold away easily.
