This is a fantastic advent calendar. I personally could do without crafts involving yarn oder wooden figurines, but the rest was solid (ceramic instead of plastic palette :), sets of paints instead of single pens or pans for different projects. I personally would be happy with a less elaborate box.
I got this to use with acrylics and small stretched canvases. It works great as a painting easel or a painting display. Looks expensive too.
Came back for the 4 drawer and now it’s a ten stack. So versatile I can stack them or separate them. Love these.
Got the natural 6 drawer and ended up staining it myself. Great quality.
Got the 10 drawer in walnut. Beautiful and versatile.
I bought a ton of these in my life but MEEDEN is the best quality.
This fits all my colored pencil sets. Gorgeous color.
Got this for all my MEEDEN oil pastels. They fit perfectly.
Perfect for all my pencils, watercolor markers, pastels. Love the color too.
Love this for watercolor. Definitely buying this again.
This easel is beautiful and was incredibly easy to assemble. The screws and materials are also high quality, and the instructions were simple and clear. Very happy with this :)
What a great company. My recent purchase arrived and I discovered it was damaged, as was the box.
Having contacted Meeden about the damage and I sent photos etc, I was sent a replacement immediately. Great service. This is my second Meeden purchase as possibly won't be my last.
Pros: I got it on sale, and it is a great value. Shipped to Alaska included, so that is amazing in itself. Got the darker color, but that was the discount, and I’m ok with that choice. I’m 73, good eyes, and fit-ish and found it fairly easy tor just me to assemble. Took about me about an hour. The packaging was exceptional. Well done! The wood is nicely fitted, and finished. The crank mechanism is really nice, and the reason I bought it. . Cons: Not unusual, but sure wish the screws, wing nuts, and metal fittings were stainless. Be very careful with the Phillips head screws as not to strip out. I would pay the extra 5-10$ for better metal fittings. I just set up a 4’ tall canvas, and the ease of use is simply wonderful. I didn’t realize how much I was fighting my old easel. No more worries about the bottom support going out of level. Raising and lowering to work at eye level is a breeze. I’m very happy with the purchase, and would even repurchase at the full price. I will be adding some rubber bumpers on the bottom tray to keep paint from pooling under the canvas. My old easel came with those, and I will use them again. It’s a small thing, but nice to have. Perhaps something the manufacturer could do going forward.
This kit is such a fun and versatile set for anyone who loves experimenting with different art mediums! It includes 96 paint colors across oil, acrylic, watercolor, and gouache, along with brushes, canvases, palettes, and two easels. I especially love having both a tabletop easel and a portable easel for painting in different spaces. There’s so much included in one set, making it a great option for artists who want to explore different painting techniques without purchasing everything separately!
I love it. Being able to make it flatten out is great for some fine detail work. My only negative is it’s quite difficult to assemble and heavy.
Thank you, Alain Picsard, for recommending this easel for my studio. It is strong enough to make expressive strokes with pastels and upright enough to let the pastel shed straight down from whatever I am painting.
I absolutely love having two water containers that are connected and constructed heavy enough so you can’t just knock them over. I use one for my dirty water and the other clean water for painting. Very happy with these.
Extremely happy with this item. Easy to assemble. Great wheels that lock also. Strong timber. Smooth height transitions. Speedy postage. Thank you.
Received the set today… awesome quality and so novel having tiny sketch books - love them!
