Pros: large surface and light weight.Cons: sharp edges and uncomfortable to hold. Considering returning it, but don't know if it's worth the hassle. I might just have to sand the edges down with sand paper. Also it appears to be untreated wood, so while I haven't used it yet, I'd imagine it would be difficult to fully clean as the wood will absorb the paint. I'd look elsewhere.

I started painting not long ago and realized I needed something bigger than the small plastic palettes. This is a good one.
