Quality item cheap screws... . The screws are a pain to screw in with the little screwdriver they provide, but when I tried a power drill, it stripped the screws in no time. So I went back to the manual screwdriver and two blisters later, I think it is a really quality easel, and the storage space is an excellent idea. Most easels just don't seem worth the space they take up. The wheels are a great idea to take it outside when the weather is nice...makes for easy transport. Overall, I am very satisfied with this item, but I agree with the other reviewer about the cheap screws.

Very nice easel . We just got this in the mail, and it went together very well. Took a while to get one as we ordered it right before Christmas. I used their screws and my own screwdriver - the screwdriver that comes with it is small, so I can see where others may have had a problem. Didn't have any screws break, had one strip out, but that was my fault as I tightened it too far. Remember folks, you are dealing with soft wood here, so don't go crazy with your screwdriver. And DO NOT use a screw gun (power drill), you will defintely have problems.
My 3 year old is using it right now and loves it. So far has drawn a cat and a dog, and is going to have some trouble separating from it to go to bed. For the money, this is a winner.

Best art easel out there!!! . We purchased this for our 2 year old daughter for Christmas. This is a great art cart! I looked at many different kinds of art easels and decided on this one because of the storage. Although there is no magnetic dry erase board, it makes up for it in all other areas. The chalkboard is an actual chalkboard (not the kind that is tough to draw/erase on). The colors are great to go in a playroom and the cart is very sturdy...We don't have to worry about it folding in on itself. Very easy to move around too with the sturdy wheels. Couldn't be happier with our purchase!

Very Happy Parent... . My daughter (3 years) received this rolling art cart for Christmas from Santa. She absolutely loves it!! Along with her seven year old brother enjoys using it too. Both can work on the cart and there are not a lot of arguing/sharing issues due to it having dual sides (1-blackboard, & (1-dry erase board & 1-paper roll) to work on. Additionally, there is a lot of storage for coloring books and art supplies due to the hidden shelves under the easel. Ultimately, this gift provides hours of entertainment for my children and it boosts their creativity. Along with it provides me the capability to store all of their art supplies in one location without baskets and containers and quick maneuverability with little effort due to its wheels.
Assembly wise my husband assembled this art cart pretty quickly and he is not a mechanical genius. Previous reviewers stated you couldn't use a power drill. However, that is what he used and it did not the strip the screws as listed previous postings. Overall the product seems very stable and made well. I believe this is going to be a toy that continues to be a favorite at our house.

Fun gift . We bought this last Christmas when our girls were 2 and 10 months with the hopes that they would both be able to use it for years. So far, after a year, they both love it and can work together on it. There is plenty of room for storage and it's easy to move around. The chalk board is good for the price of the cart, but we do have trouble with some types of chalk. We bought large easel clips to use an easel pad of paper when the roll of paper was almost empty. The good thing about that is you can put paper on both sides that way. The white board cleans off easily with crayola markers. This was pretty easy to put together and rather sturdy. We really love it.
Not Worth the Price:( . I really thought I would love this easel but am so disappointed in the height. I wish it would of been a bit taller than what it is. The other easels are height adjustable and much much cheaper. Don't buy this product it's just not worth it. Mother of three under five :)
Hmm... . Well, besides being very low (not sure how this was meant for kids 7-9 years old - my daughter is 5 and its already up to her chin), it also doesn't go thru the door frame! Whats the point of the wheels if you can't wheel it out of a room??
Very disappointed, especially for the price I paid...

Missing paper cutter . Great art center. Daughter loves it. I am just slightly annoyed b/c the description said it came with a child safe paper cutter and didn't find one in the packaging. I don't know if it was supposed to be in there or the description is wrong. I am most annoyed that there seems to be no way to get in touch with Amazon to just get the missing piece without having to return the entire item which would be not worth the trouble. I just want the missin piece! Other than that great.
Great piece for any play room . I was looking for an art table/easel for my toddler to add to his play area. I wanted something that was made of wood, had quality construction, art options, storage options. This product was exactly what we wanted. The assembly went smoothly but did leave me with blisters on my thumb; my son's excitement was worth it! It also looks very cute especially with my little artist next to it.
amazon review lies . toy is ok but for price it should be more durable the stars are cheap and can be pulled off by a 2 year old Amazon said that it had a magnetic chalk board it doesn't they lie. its cheap
