Fine craftsmanship. The box is lightweight and small when folded into a "suitcase" if you will. It offers moderate storage with adjustable metal trays. You can draw or paint at any angle from horizontal to vertical. My wife uses it for oil pastels. We had a nice piece of 1/8" plywood laying around and cut her a drawing board that fits perfectly into the notched grooves. We both highly recommend this easel/sketch box.
My new easel is working great. I like the functionality of the storage part of the easel. There were no problems with the product or the shipping. It arrived promptly and in excellent condition.

This has been the best little tool ever! I am a new author and this travel easel has been such a life saver. I left it at one event and had to drive back to get it but it was well worth it! It folds up easy and is very sturdy when using. The only negative is that I wish it came with it's own case.
This is my very favorite painting surface. The built in box frame is strong enough to prevent warping, even in a large format (I've worked on pieces from this line that are up to 36"x48" in size.) You can see some of my paintings on for reference. Also, from my experiences, Amazon offers the best price on these wooden painting boards. I definitely recommend!
