StrongTek Bamboo Tabletop Easel, Adjustable Drawing Board for Desk and Lap

This desk top easel is exactly what I needed for drawing in my sketchbook. I use this two ways: 1. When drawing from a reference image (or textbook), I'll place the textbook on the easel and my sketchbook in front of it so I can easily view the reference material. When it's time for line art and color, I place the sketchbook on the easel and can adjust the height as I go depending on whether I'm doing color, shading, line art, etc. I like that this is made for drawing/art with the nooks and crannies that come built in. Because I have a hardbound sketchbook, I can place the sketchbook on the easel, then place my phone horizontally on top of the sketchbook and draw from a reference image on my phone. There's room for several pencils and line pens in the holders. It's attractive, sturdy, gives multiple height options of the easel angle for whatever medium you're working with. It also folds completely down so it can be tucked under a couch or coffee table easily when not in use. The handle makes it portable. Best of all, it comes 99% assembled. You only have to pop in the ledge that holds your book/paper. This is a great option for any artist. It's also fantastic for poring over a large book. While I mention it's the perfect size for my small 8.3 x 8.3 sketchbook, that's when it's completely open. I can also place large/heavy college textbook sized books (and cookbooks) on this no problem. Great product.

This actually is alot nicer than I thought it would be. Seems to be well made. Nice wood used. And I like how easy the easel part works.

Just received this StrongTec walnut bamboo easel. It looks really great. The work surface is smooth, has a nice sealer on it and is thick and strong. I did not notice any odor from the sealer. There are no cracks or rough surfaces. It is a good size 16 x 12. With 6 adjustments it offers a little extra as most easels I looked at have 5 angle adjustments. Some have mentioned that the removable rest lets paper slip through or the rest falls off. That can be remedied easily with a little wood glue to permanently attach or add a small strip of caulk or duck tape on the back of the rest between the two pegs. I would definitely buy this again!

I like this product! It does its main purpose - holding the art you're working on. However, I am slightly disappointed at the features advertised. It shows that it can hold colored pencils or pencils for you in the holes. The holes seem to be a bit small and I couldn't fit them in like the advertisement shows. I reached out to the seller in hopes that they have a solution for this.Aside from that, the table is sturdy and seems to be made with Quality. It also folds too.Overall I like it!

Fantastic art board! Perfect for my laptop and ipad as well.

Very light, but sturdy. Bamboo, yes. Adjusts quickly for just the right drawing angle. Smooth flat surface. Has an attachable crosspiece to hold your artwork or even a larger drawing board so you are covered. Best thing since sliced bread.

One upon a time I had a functional drawing desk but it broke and I haven’t replace it. But as I’ve been drawing more and more I really missed taping so at an angle. I found this option and I really liked how it looked, plus I saw the potential of not only using it at my desk, but also in other rooms around the house and even elsewhere. I have to say that the product didn’t disappoint. It’s big enough for my sketch book and it has a little “stop” so it doesn’t slide, I could also use it with a piece of paper although I would use some washi tape for that), and I can adjust it to different angles easily. It’s sturdy, not light really but not heavy, and the quality of the wood feels really sleek and fine.I’m really loving it so far.

I like this but the screws came out at the hinges, when I try to screw them back in they just spin.

Well made. Great design. Works exactly as advertised. Shipped quickly with no problems. Very pleased with my purchace.

Ottimo prodotto in legno

So easy to use

Good quality. Would have prefered a phone slot in it, but had to compromise on cost and other options. It does slide off of your lap easily so i will have to get something to stick on the bottom to prevent sliding off of my lap when drawing.
