Hape All-in-1 Easel | Award-Winning Double-Sided Kids Standing Easel Adjustable Height Stand with Paper Roll, Chalkboard, Whiteboard, Magnets and 3 Paint Pots

Bought as a Christmas present for a two year old and it looks like it will be a big hit for years to come. I spent a lot of time looking at the options for a child's whiteboard/easel. I wanted a magnetic whiteboard on one side, chalkboard on the other (tick!). More than anything, I wanted it to be stable so it wouldn't get knocked over and have the user fall down on top or underneath it. I'm happy with this - seems to be more stable than its competitors and it's solidly made. The suggestion I would make is that it would benefit from non-slip feet. This is probably not an issue on carpet but we've got hard floors. The paper roll holder is a great idea, though painting on the whiteboard side seems like a recipe for getting paint on the whiteboard, which might be a problem.I think this product is great value - it was around £55 when bought. There are cheaper options, but they're not made of wood and many of them looked flimsy. What's missing is that it didn't come with a lot of accessories. I bought a Quercetti "tablet" product that had magnetic letters, numbers and picture tiles so that (1) we had accessories to go with this easel and (2) as something so that we could essentially take the same toy on the road. I also bought dry-wipe pens and chalk separately. It would have been a good idea for these to be included. It also needs paint and paintbrush.Overall, it looks great and does the job - more importantly, it was a hit with the young man I gave it to.

Fantastic easel. After spending some time looking for one that adjusted in height, had a paper holder and a magnetic side I finally came across this one. This ticks all the (my) boxes. It is very well made and attractive. The blackboard works well. The white board is magnetic. There are bars to hold the paper flat and a large tray to hold crayons etc. My little 18 month old can use it comfortably at the lowest height setting and because it can be adjusted she will be using it for years to come.

The media could not be loaded. Was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this child's easel for my daughter's 2nd birthday.It was packaged really well and all parts were present, undamaged and no warping of any wood or surfaces.The unboxing and build took approx 15 minutes and was super easy with the supplied instructions.My daughter has yet to receive the easel so I shall update if there are any issues with the day to day usage of the product however I have to say that I'm very happy with the first impressions and look forward to seeing her receiving it for her birthday.

Great sturdy design. Colourful and attractive. Had a chalk board and magnetic board level shelf for crayons etc and three sealable paintots in sunken holes. A very good design. It says adjustable height but alreadyvat full extension for our tall 4yr old grandson. I was mislead by the inclusions. Thought there was an eraser chalks and magnetic letters. At the price paid it should have had those so sadly had to go buying again. Amazon didn't have reasonably priced items some very costly. Overall a good purchase. Used all the time.

Really easy to put together and very sturdy , the paper roll is great too keeps it in place while little ones paint/draw.

I was looking for an adjustable easel, that would hold paper, with a magnetic board and chalk side. This fulfilled all of these requirements. It arrived within a day and fitted together easily. We still have to use it as ordered chalk, pens etc separately and waiting for them to arrive. It is really well made and great for a 2 and 4 year old to play at the same time. The paper is hard to thread through so needs an adult to help. Wider paper would also be useful (44cm wide) to stop the kids drawing on the White board. It is good to have a bar to secure the paper at the bottom too so it does not move. Overall very pleased with it and feel it was the best choice on the market for what I wanted. Other option was waiting for the magnetic version of the Melissa and Doug easel released later this year.

Lovely item and very easy to adjust to suit your child’s height. It was also very easy to assemble. The reason for three stars was that the green bar where there are two clips to hold down the art paper in place was very warped. Despite the clip being tighten it couldn’t close the gap and hold the art paper down. The manufacturer didn’t want to help :(

Not cheap but really robust and well designed
