Comments about ALEX Toys Magnetic Artist Easel Set:
This has provided our 3 year old daughter and her friends many hours of entertainment. Definitely worth the price. Its well made and functions just as described. Love that the paper roll comes from the inside. If you're planning to invest in a easel, get this one (or one like it) that is magnetic.

Comments about ALEX Toys Magnetic Artist Easel Set:
A good set that my one-year-old will probably be able to use for at least two or three years. It seems sturdy, and I like that it's adjustable.
What I don't like about it:
- The plastic nuts are cheap, strip easily, and are a choking hazard. I replaced them with metal nuts at the first opportunity.
- The dowel for the paper roll is held in sockets on the cross-arms that hold the easel open, but the one arm fastens on the front, another at the back, so when you release them to fold the easel, the dowel falls out. I don't see a reason for designing it this way, and it's very annoying.
- The chalkboard surface is too smooth and soft. I followed the directions to write on the entire surface to prime it, but this didn't help much. More of the green surface came off onto the chalk than vice-versa.
Pros
- Can Withstand Use
- Educational
- Fun

Comments about ALEX Toys Magnetic Artist Easel Set:
Really nice chalkboard/White board. Purchased because white board is magnetic which was a must. I wanted kids to be able to use magnetic ABC's with it to help with spelling. Very easy to assemble. The paper roll works extremely well. Only con I wish they had included some erasers with acessories. For some reason I'm having a hard time finding in stores.
Service and delivery comments:
Very quick delivery.
