Faber Castell Do Art - Travel Easel Reviews and Opinions
This review is from : Faber Castell Do Art - Travel Easel
Great for art on the go . I bought this for my 4 year old daughter for her birthday and she loves it. She uses it at home but it is especially good when we are going somewhere. It is a nice solid suitcase that holds lots of art supplies. It sets up easy and can keep her entertained for a long time. It has the easel, dry erase board and chalk board. The chalk board can be messy when erasing, just by the nature of chalk becoming powder. The pencils and pens and pastels are good quality. It comes with a pad. The pad is thin paper, it is good for sketches. The thin paper does not stay up in the clip well if it is just a single piece. The suitcase has drawers to keep supplies neat and organized and locks when you close the case, so things don't fall out. The drawers do not lock if you put the pad inside. It is not meant to be stuffed with extra things, as far as I can tell. This is good for older kids too. I bought it for my 6 year old neighbor for her birthday as she liked my daughters. She loves it too.

Faber Castell Do Art - Travel Easel Reviews
Fantastic! . I knew my six year old daughter would like it. I had no idea how much. She has used it every single day for a month. She has an easier time cleaning up when she's done, using the drawers, and it keeps her younger brothers from making messes with her art supplies, when she's not using it.
The clips for the easel don't hold well, as others have mentioned, and they especially do not hold the slick newsprint provided. A few sheets of blank printer paper do fine. Thick sketch paper does great. It might be nice to buy a real sketch pad to include with it, when giving it as a gift. Or to have a ream of printer paper on hand for your own children.
*It's been almost a year, and this is still a daily use item. It protects her art space from her younger brothers. The white board didn't last long, but she was never really interested in it. It's just the side where the paper goes. The chalk board is plastic, and will probably never wear out.

Faber Castell Do Art - Travel Easel Opinions
just okay - would not buy again . She loves it for now - but is currently frustrated that the paper will not stay on their clips. The chalk board is very messy and the drawers will not hold many standard size markers unless you put them in at an angle - which means less space. Disappointed that it cannot store it's own paper. Disappointed that the easel does not stay up in place easily. The markers, pastels etc. are nice quality though. I would sooner buy a nice closing book that can hold paper and pens than this again. We have only had it for a day and I am already thinking of getting rid of it.

Granddaughter Loved Loved Loved it! . My granddaughter, who is 6, received this for her birthday. She has loved it since day 1. So happy to see her enjoying this gift so much.
Great Value OK Product . I bought this easel for my toddler so that he could easily draw and color. I knew going in that all of the accessories (pencils, chalk, etc) would be put away until he was older, but thought the easel would get alot of use. I'm sure one day it will, but this really is for an older child. I completely agree with the other reviews about the paper holders not securing paper well. The construction of it seems a bit flimsy too. I figured since it was a travel easel, it'd be a little sturdier considering kids might be drawing in the car. If you're looking for an affordable easel, this is definitely worth the price. But, if you're looking for something substantial, keep looking.
The perfect and portable art kit for young children! . This is an outstanding design...a lap desk, an easel, storage for travel, a chalkboard, dry erase board, clips to hold paper in place, paper and many other supplies. It is easy to set up and very functional. So far it appears durable, though I would have preferred a heavier plastic; but well worth it. This would be appropriate for an older child except the bright colors. If your child is not bothered by the young appearance, it is totally suitable for any child 5 and up.
Do Art - Travel Easel . Bought this for my 6 year old granddaughter. She loves it. She is very artsy and this has a lot of different items that she can create with. I like the fact that everything can be stored inside and that the working area can either lay flat or sit up.
Cheap Cheap Cheap . I ordered this toy for my nephew who loves to write and draw. It is an activity that keeps him busy at restaurants, so I thought this travel case would be perfect. When it arrived, the clip to lock it was broken. The chalkboard doesn't clip in so when you write on it, it keeps falling and the clips that hold the pad in place are cheap and don't hold the new pad well. Also, if you put the pad inside the case so that it is altogether then it doesn't shut. I am not thrilled with this item at all.
My niece loves it! . My niece couldn't wait to use it. As soon as she opened it, she wanted to set it up and get started. There are many mediums for the mini Monet! Highly recommended.
Cons Review
3 months old and still used weekly . Bought this for my 5-year old daughter for Christmas. It's 3 months later and she still uses it at least once a week. Durable and easy to tote to the car for road trips.
