Good bang for your buck

As palettes go, this one is a good size. Room for 24 pigments and FIVE (!) mixing wells is difficult to find. I've had several plastic palettes similar to this one that never quite closed; this one -- mine at least -- actually snaps shut with a click. That being said, as far as travel goes, it is NOT airtight; it will be fine for travel AS LONG as your pigments and mixing wells are dry before you close it. It is fairly sturdy, although I would not recommend frequently dropping it on a hard…

Pros
  • Works well. You can’t have any protector/case; must be direct contact with charger pins.
Cons
  • The color mixing wells may not be deep enough for some artists' preferences

Ok for in-studio use.

Very thin plastic but will suffice for in-studio use. Don't think these will take much bouncing around or packing in a travel bag.

Pros
  • Professional design - thumb hole with anti-slip design, easy to carry the palette. 5 brush holes in 5 different sizes holding brushes for easy access while painting with palette in hands.
Cons
  • The liner brush may not be suitable for artists who prefer to paint with broad, sweeping strokes

Great paint palette for acrylic or watercolor paints. Great for mixing paint colors, lots of smaller & larger compartments for using different colors. Kept a small amount of acrylic paint moist for 2 days while the lid was closed! Very easy to clean dried acrylic paint off with just warm water. Like that it has a few different sized holes for paint brushes.

Pros
  • It has worked well for me!
Cons
  • The color mixing wells may not be evenly spaced or sized

A little pricey but worth it

I’m taking a water color class at my local craft store and needed a decent size, portable pallet with a cover. Although a bit expensive, this fit the bill.

Pros
  • the tray is small, picture is deceiving
Cons
  • The lid of the palette box may be difficult to keep clean and free of dried paint

Recommend for sure in my review

Will recommend this, it saves time and cleanup. That's my review! Sometime it’s fun to use previous colors to create a new one.

Pros
  • Works fine, should be sturdy enough
Cons
  • The liner brush may not be high quality enough for more advanced artists

GREAT PRODUCT! - my new review

If you're an acrylic painter, this is for you. NOT for watercolor mixing. Great size, cover to keep paints moist, and the blending is perfect, EASIEST CLEANUP EVERY! You can literally wipe away the paint residue with a tissue, love this product!

Pros
  • Came right on time and exactly as described!
Cons
  • The palette box may be difficult to open or close for those with limited hand mobility

Not airtight for my opinion

I bought this for acrylic paints but not airtight and doesn’t close completely.I keep misting my acrylic paints and hope Not dry by next session painting.

Pros
  • Not easy to clean but worth it
Cons
  • The color mixing wells may be difficult to clean thoroughly between uses

Great palette for my opinion

My daughters use it for their watercolor paint tubes and they love that it has lots of spots to put the paint colors and nice big spots for mixing.

Pros
  • It is a very good solid plate and worth the price ( bigger than the small ones in staple.)
Cons
  • The lid of the palette box may not stay securely in place while painting

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not for watercolor mixing

This was cheap but not worth it for water color paint mixing, as you can see from the photo it doesn’t lay on the well, it just bubbles to little patches of paint which makes it harder to see the colors, and it does NOT close tightly. It has a huge space between sides as you can see from the picture. I bought this bc I wanted an extra well to mix colors. But you are better off purchasing a Zoltan szabo well.One of the comments mentioned cleaning it with toothpaste so it will properly mix…

Pros
  • The Transon Paint Palette Box is the perfect tool for artists of all levels, offering 29 color mixing wells and a liner brush to create unique and detailed paintings
Cons
  • The palette box may not be suitable for use with certain types of paintbrushes, such as fan brushes

Better than expected.

Love the layout, for me it's perfect. Now if it was enameled metal it would last a lifetime. For the price I can buy another if it should break.

Pros
  • after oil painting place in freezer and oil paints are ready for my next session
Cons
  • The plastic material may not be durable enough for frequent use

Just use some toothpaste

Nice palette for the price. Before use though, take some toothpaste and a toothbrush then scrub it down. Once you've scrubbed it down, rise it off; it insures you don't get the weird beading other customers say they dislike about it.

Pros
  • Portable and efficient with a removable palette, great for my watercolor painting! Thanks
Cons
  • The color mixing wells may not be evenly spaced or sized, making it difficult for artists to mix precise colors

Super practical and great quality!

Absolutely love it! This is exactly what I needed.I highly recommend it for those who wasn't something portable and practical and good quality.

Pros
  • Works well! I used blue tac to stick all the handmade watercolors that I had. Very happy with it!
Cons
  • The palette box may be too small for larger paintings or projects

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good palette on my review.

Very convenient! I like that it's a decent size and holds my watercolors fine. I dont think I would travel with wet paints inside it, but it works very nicely as a palette

Pros
  • Easy to use, and handle. Love it.
Cons
  • The color mixing wells may not be deep enough to prevent paint from drying out too quickly

It's Okay on my review.

This palette is very big and can hold alot of my gouache and watercolor paints for me to travel on the go. At the same time my issue with this is that it doesn't close securely and mine may have cam broken. I will still attempt to use it and make it work, but for the price I paid for this I wasn't expecting something amazing.

Pros
  • I was looking for a new flat pallet and this one is perfect.
Cons
  • The color mixing wells may be too small for artists who prefer to mix larger quantities of paint

Hinges don’t function.

I wanted to like it. It would have allowed me to put warm & cool colors in opposite side of the tray. Hinge was broken when I received it. Upon closer inspection, I doubt that hinge was engineered to function well as it had only a small nub that was supposed to snap into the opposing part of the hinge.A failure.

Pros
  • watercolors from tubes :)
Cons
  • I feel like this was overpriced, even as cheap as it was. Not worth it. Will stick to ceramic and pans.

Lightweighted on my review.

I love that it’s quite lightweighted and has a lot more sections than my previous one so that I can use or mix more colors all at once.

Pros
  • Plastic palette box is easy to wash and clean. Folding palette box makes it easy to carry(empty palette before traveling with).
Cons
  • The liner brush may be too stiff or too flexible for certain types of painting

Large palette: my feedback

This was super sturdy, tons of room for mixing paints. Enough room for my friend and I to both use it during a paint night! The thumb hole for holding and stability was super helpful!

Pros
  • It's small. Just the size I wanted.
Cons
  • good but it doesn't close tight so paint won't dry out

Most Full Featured Folding Palette

I was looking for a folding palette because I'm one of those watercolor artists who loves to hold their palette while working, rather than having one on the table. This one has a very good balance, because the thumb rest is towards the center, and the small fold-out extra mixing palette space further enhances its balance. It's a larger palette too, so I like to use it in the studio.For travel I instead use Yasutomo's Niji Foldout Watercolor Palette , which is a good two inches shorter, thinner,

Pros
  • 30 compartments in all, 20 small wells, 4 medium wells, 4 large mixing wells, 1 extra large mixing well, 1 long slot.
Cons
  • The color mixing wells may be difficult to use or clean for artists with limited dexterity

Exactly as pictured

Great for what I needed! Shipped fast, packaged well. It does it’s job, the plastic quality may not be for everyone but I am simple and it’s great for me

Pros
  • TRANSON
Cons
  • The palette box may not be suitable for artists who prefer to paint with their fingers or other mediums

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect in every way

I really like all the compartments. It's large enough to handle all the paint I need for a picture. I paint on 11in x 14in surfaces.

Pros
  • Transon artist palette for paint storage, color mixing. Suitable for acrylic, gouache, oil, watercolors.
Cons
  • The color mixing wells may be too close together for some artists' preferences
