Review on Art Alternatives AA1250 Ravenna Easel by Carla Anderson

Read the many reviews on this and similar products before you buy. This review had mixed reviews but I decided to buy it anyway. I can't compare it to anything as it's my first easel, but I'm still very happy with the choice. When I unpacked it from the box, like others, I found some washers and nuts at the bottom of the box. It was pretty obvious where to go and within 3-4 minutes it was assembled and installed on my painting table. Everything tightens easily, stays in place, and is generally solid. I'd just say check the box for loose items especially under the flaps at the bottom, look closely and you'll see where things are going and you should be up and running in no time.
