Expensive and then one wing nut was not threaded correctly so had to duck tape together to use. total assembly required and poor assembly instructions with un-clear illustrations. not good ;(
I bought the easel for a yard sale to hold and display my framed cross stitch pictures. It can hold 2 pictures with fairly thick frames. Worked perfectly and I'm sure will be helpful many times over.
Even though the easel was sturdy enough to be blown over 3 times it was had to understand the drawn assembly instructions. It served it's purpose as a last minute idea for an outside festival display. And we needed to completely disassemble it for storage.
