Review on 🎨 MEEDEN French Easel: Foldable Legs, Drawer Storage & Palette Tray by Nicole Mcleod

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I call mine THE RAIN MANUFACTURER - The Great Easel

After a long break, I'm returning to painting. Having an easel to set outside or in my barn is a must. I also wanted to have one in the house when my endless renovations were complete. This easel will be indoors. HOW IT WORKS It comes in a box that is fairly well insulated against damage. ANY DEFORMATION? I have another easel that I have had for a few years but it was very difficult to get hold of. The legs were warped, the rest of the parts were so disappointing that I had to return several times before finding an acceptable one. This easel is much prettier,” I say excitedly. Beautiful wood, the legs are not deformed and all the wood seems well assembled. QUALITY The quality of the wood and components that make up this easel is much better than my other easel that I have owned for a while. It's a step above other easel components and I feel like I have a really good easel and not a budget version. FEATURES I love how this easel is customizable. It has a good component layout and every part of it snaps securely into place. I can put it on an uneven surface, a flat floor or even a smooth granite floor. I can also use it as a desk easel if I want. I can use a small canvas, but I prefer this option for medium to large canvases or paper supports. DRAWER This box is good. You can move the dividers to keep colors, brushes, etc. separated from each other. PALETTE The set includes a wooden palette for oils. When using this for acrylic I use a disposable pad instead. WHY DO I CALL THIS RAIN MAKER? No matter when I put it in, it starts raining. I put this up many times to take photos for you and this easel would start to adjust and it would start raining. I finally set it up and was able to take a quick photo for you before I started filling it. It holds up well in slightly wet conditions. I wouldn't recommend using it in the rain, but it repels larger drops of water. BOTTOM LINE This is a really nice easel. It is water resistant in light rain, installed on a flat or uneven surface, and the quality of materials and components is reliable. I love it. MY RATING FIVE STARS. This is the most beautiful easel I have. I like it very much and will use it all winter once it's harvested. So far I like that I can adjust it to a chair and even a table while standing.

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • No performance

Made of Beechwood Looks great but hardware is cheap and not dependable.
