Faber Castell Do Art - Travel Easel

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.

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.

Buy Faber Castell Do Art - Travel Easel Now

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.

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.
