This product is great, except that only Melissa and Doug magnets can be used. So, buyer be aware of that option.

I would buy again with warning

Once assembled, the easel works well and toddler twins enjoy it. Assembling was a nightmare. Directions are confusing and several of the screws and holes did not match up. We had to get a drill and enlarge one hole, use brute force on others, and just let go for others. Very, very frustrating!!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Disappointed about magnetic board

I bought this particular easel specifically because it said it was magnetic, however I'm really disappointed to discover that only Melissa and Doug magnets work on it, any other magnet just falls off the board. Other than that, it's a nice easel and was easy to put together and my kids will enjoy it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I purchased this for my 3 year old grandson. The blackboard is not a real blackboard, definitely not up to your usual standards. It has a grainy texture to it. I don't know if there is something that I can apply to it, to improve it. I would not purchase this again.

Magnet and magnetic disappointments.

My grandsons are having a great time with their new easel. However, I have two disappointments with it: white board is not magnetic (unlike the white boards I have used in classrooms); other letter magnets that I have in the house do NOT work on the magnetic chalkboard. But, I did initially like the product enough to have bought 2 of them, right off the bat!

I purchased this easel for my Granddaughter for Christmas. She is 20 months and loves to explore her creative side. The height adjustment is perfect! She loves the white board and chalk board. It would be nice if the accessory set was included with the easel as an option. My daughter in law loved the paint cups. I think there should be more than one white board marker in the accessory set. It was a hit and they love it!!!! All your products are great.

My daughter loves the easel for my 2 year old grandson. The magnetic side chalkboard is so nice for him to put his letters and numbers on. I just ordered more of the Melissa and Doug magnet sets, The Farm and Disney Characters for him to use on the magnetic chalkboard. Great gift, I am so happy with my purchase,
