we have had this easel for 3 years now and it still looks new. everything wipes down clean and it has seen a lot of use and has been a lot of fun from first scribbles to teaching my son his alphabet.

Like me, my son loves to color and create his own art projects. So I finally bought him this Double Crayola Easel, and he loved it. It keeps him entertained for hours at a time. I also love that it has little compartments on it for him to keep his supplies. It keeps the mess off of my kitchen table. This product is perfect.

My daughters got this as a gift last Christmas, but we just finally got it out for them a few months ago. The easel has a chalkboard on one side and a magnetic/dry erase board on the other side. It comes with chalk, an eraser, and alphabet and number letters for the magnetic side. It also comes with 4 storange bins for the accessories, thse are removable if you want to fold the easel to store it. There are also two clips on each side that hold papers. The easel folds very easily to store, we just stick it in the side of a closet.The letters and numbers are great, my girls love to rearrange them. The chalkboard is very nice, it erases easily and is the perfect height for my 2 and 3 year olds to draw on. One downside for me is that one side is a dry erase board. It is nice for the magnetic letters, but my kids are way to young to have dry erase markers. I would prefer if both sides had the chalkboard so that both of them could color on one side. All in all a great product though!

My son received the Crayola magnetic double easel for his second birthday. He loves to draw, color, and paint, so I knew he would love this gift from his Grandma. My son is only two, so he doesn't paint, color, or draw without me being right there with him. We love that there is a chalkboard and a dry erase board to play with. The little baskets on each side are great for holding chalk, markers, and the little magnetic letters it comes with. (I do think there are too many magnetic letters and numbers, and they are small, so beware of tiny children around this easel.) It is very easy to clip a piece of paper to the clipboard (one on either side) and paint. The easel is very durable and sturdy, and my husband loved that there was nothing to put together. The easel came right out, and it folds for easy storage. This easel can be very educational for young kids as they explore their artistic abilities. We have already enjoyed hours of fun with it!

The Crayola Magnetic Easel is a toy I see being used for years to come. We bought this easel for our son this past Christmas. He is two years old and was just getting interested in drawing. He plays with it every day. I love that there are two sides to it. He can use the dry erase board for magnets or for drawing. The chalkboard on the other side is also nice for drawing. It is very easy to erase things. His favorite part so far has been the magnetic letters that come with the easel. He was just starting to learn his letters when we got this gift, but now he knows every letter and some sounds. He will put the letters on the magnetic side for hours and talk about them. It is a great learning tool! The easel was very easy to assemble. You simply open it up and push the sides into place. It seems very sturdy and does not seem to be easily damaged. I think it is also reasonably priced and will last us a lifetime!

We received this easel as a gift for our son's second birthday and it has been well appreciated by him and us. It is a great product. It came with alphabets and numbers that he likes to stick on the magnetic board and pretend to make words. The chalkboard is easy to use and clean. he likes to scribble on it and pretend he is writing or painting whihc is great for his imagination. It also folds up for great storage which is very good when you do not have a lot of space around the house. The dry erase board also has two clips to use for putting paper on if they want to paint on the paper. There are two cups provided which probably isnot enough since they can only use two colors at a time. It has been used very well and has survived many other toddler visitors. The height is perfect for a preschooler and they can even pretend play with it. We loved the quality of this product and would recommend it to others!

This easel is perfect for the little artist. It is small, and meant for a 3-4 year old. It is good guality and stands up to the less-dainty artists too! My kids love it. My favorite feature is the clip on the top which allows you to add your own paper for coloring, painting etc. Good find!

My two year old daughter received this easel for a Christmas gift. We thought she'd really enjoy it as she loves to color and do crafty things. One side has a dry erase board and the other side has a chalk board. Both are magnetic. I don't think the magnetic force is quite strong enough as it doesn't necessarily hold all the magnets that she has. It actually came with some letter magnets but they were small. I wouldn't suggest allowing a small child who tends to put things in their mouth to play with the magnets without supervision. They seem like such an easy choking hazard. I added some magnetic letters that we had already to the bins so she has lots of them to play with. The easel didn't come with any chalk or white board markers though so you'll have to invest in those should you buy this toy for your child. She thoroughly loves this easel and I can see it lasting for years. The only downfall is that she goes underneath the easel and it has tipped over once. But she's able to drag it from her bedroom to the living room and play with it because it's light weight. A nice investment!

We bought the Crayola Magnetic Double Easel for our two year old daughter for christmas this year and she loves it. It is very easy to set up-just basically connect the arms on the side and attach the storage bins. It has a chalkboard on one side and a magnetic/dry erase board on the other side which also has an art display clip. It comes with four storage bins, an eraser and a magnetic alphabet and letters set.  I wish the magnetic alphabet/letter set was a little larger in size. Especially for the age of my daughter. The height of it is just perfect for her. She spends a lot of time playing with this and likes to switch back and forth to the different sides. It is very lightweight so it is very easy to move it from room to room. I hang paper from the clip so she can draw with markers and crayons and we can keep her pictures. I have read some people having issues about the chalkboard side but we have not had any. We have been using the sidewalk chalk, which you are not suppose to use, and it has worked fine for us. It would be nice for crayola to include some chalk and a dry erase marker but it's not that big of a deal. I can seem my daughter using this for many years to come. We have been very happy with this product and would recommend it. .

 my son usually has to warm up to his toys and usually takes about a week or so before he plays with something. he got this for christmas and was playing with it in the same hour.  i was very shocked and happy i got this for him. he loves to draw and put his magnetes on it. it was very easy for ME to put together i really suck at putting anything together and i did this with no problem. i wish the markers came off easier but he loves the he gets to wet the sponge and clean it off lol.. and it has helped with him not writing on the wall. he used to ALWAYS write on the walls and since we have gotten it.. which is only been since christmas, he hasnt drawn on anything but the easel. it is wonderful not having to clean the walls anymore.  i like that he can stick paper on there and also use his crayons if he likes. my son is 3 and he is quite the artist :P he likes to lug it around the house to where ever he wants to sit so its not heavy at all.
